- To see how you cope with probing and with sensitive question
- To assess your understanding of what constitutes a ‘failure’ or ‘mistake’
- To explore your attitude to ‘failing’, learning from mistakes, taking a risk, putting yourself out of your comfort zone
- To see how quickly and positively you learn and recover
- To gauge your resilience levels and your ability to adapt and recover
- To explore your tolerance if others ‘failed’ on your team
- To verify your self-awareness and honesty
- To see whether you would admit your and your team mistakes
- To find out what your way of highlighting problems is
- To see if you involve others in an appropriate manner and in right time
- Indicate your self-acceptance and tolerance threshold as well as expectation of yourself (show high but realistic expectation)
- Choose an appropriate example, do not let it be too extreme or personal – stick strictly to work, job, business, life in organisations
- Remember it is vital to emphasise the constructive action you took to recover:
– get back in action
- It is important to indicate your quick learning from setback – list learnings from ‘failing’ and/or ‘mistake’
- And finally show how you turned your ‘failure’ or ‘mistake’ into a positive!
