    1. Tell me about yourself, to get to know you a little more?

    I've been a hostess at Subway Restaurant for just over two years where I greet and seat
    customers, assess wait times, fulfill to-go orders and answer the phones. I love the lively
    and busy environment—we often have Friday and Saturday wait times of one hour or
    more.

    2. What are your strengths and weaknesses?

    I’ve always been a natural leader. ’ve exceeded my KPIs every quarter and have been
    promoted twice in the past five years. I look back at those successes and know that I
    wouldn’t have reached them if I hadn’t built and led teams composed of highly skilled and
    diverse individuals. I’m proud of my ability to get cross-functional groups on the same
    page. Im naturally shy. From high school and into my early professional interactions, it
    sometimes prevented me from speaking up.

    3. What do your colleagues say about your work?

    They say they love to work with me because I get the best from them.

    4. Where do you see yourself in five years?

    In five years, I’d like to be an industry expert in my field, able to train and mentor students and
    entry-level designers alike. I would also like to gain specialized expertise in user experience to be a
    well-rounded contributor working with design and marketing teams on large-scale projects that
    make a difference both in the company and the global community

    5. Tell me an example of a complicated situation you have experienced and how you
    solved it

    It was the first day of my boss’s two-week vacation and our agency’s highest-paying client
    threatened to leave because he didn’t feel he was getting the personalized service he was
    promised. I spent my lunch hour on the phone with him talking through his concerns. We even
    brainstormed ideas for his next campaign. He was so grateful for the personal attention that
    he signed another six-month contract before my boss even returned from her trip.

    6. What do you know about our company?

    The company’s mission to help college grads pay off their student loan debt resonates
    with me. I’ve been in student loan debt myself and would love the opportunity to work
    with a company that’s making a difference. Finding a company with a positive work
    environment and values that align with my own has remained a priority throughout my
    job search and this company ranks at the top of the list.
    7. Why do you want to work in my company?

    While I highly valued my time at my previous company, there are no longer opportunities for
    growth that align with my career goals. This position fits perfectly with my skill set and how I’m
    looking to grow in my career. I’m also looking for a position at a company like yours that supports
    underserved communities, which is a personal passion of mine.”

    8. Why should I choose you to work for me?

    My experience accurately managing inventory intake and skills in creating effective,


    streamlined schedules make me uniquely qualified to succeed in this kitchen manager
    position. I understand that you require a highly organized candidate with acute attention
    to detail. In my previous job, I successfully handled schedules for 20 employees and
    reduced food waste by 15%. I’m confident in my ability to use my organizational skills to
    bring efficiency and order to your restaurant.
