Q. Describe a time when you worked as
part of a team?
“Whilst at work, my manager wanted a group of 5 volunteers to carry out an urgent
stock check of all company goods. The stock check needed to be done quickly because
S the computer system that usually keeps a check of stock had gone down. I volunteered
along with 4 other team members.
The task required us all to methodically work through each item of stock, in alphabetical order
T and mark them off against a defined worksheet. The task had to be completed within 3 hours,
so we needed to work very quickly.

I decided to brief the team on the task that had to be undertaken, and also allocate
A specific tasks based on each team members strengths. As we all worked through the
task, we supported each other and helped out if someone was struggling or if they were
falling behind time.
The end result was that we managed to complete the task fully with just 10 minutes to spare.
R At the end of the job, we got together to discuss if there was anything we learned from the task
and also if we could improve things if the same situation arose again in the future.”
