Sample Answer for tell me about a time you worked with a difficult person
In my latest post, i worked on an important initiative with a large team, unfortunately few team member always disagreed with other teams view . The truth was we weren’t going to be much productive if we couldn’t get this team member to cooperate. After our first meeting I pulled them aside and told them how much I valued their opinions. I also emphasized that as much as we respected their opinions they needed to somewhat flexible. After a successful meeting with them where i pointed on some of this issues , they understood the impact of their conduct to the whole team. Still from the way they responded in the subsequent meetings , I realized it was more productive to pull them aside one-on-one and thoroughly explain to each of them. In the long run it was not really easy to work with this person, but they were more manageable than at the beginning.
When answering time you worked with a difficult person talk of people newer to the career. Rather than speaking about your bosses or other senior colleague in the previous institution.
