What would your colleagues from your last job say about you if we asked them?

This question is being asked to see how you fit into a team. How were you seen in your last job – as the joker, the quiet one, the innovator or the thinker? Describe how your colleagues would describe you at your best on a good day. You can leave out the reasons for any tensions in the group for this answer and just highlight your strengths. If there were some people with whom you did not get on, that is quite normal and you could say: ‘Not everyone was my best friend of course but on the whole I was a valued and respected member of the team and we worked well together.’ The interviewer just wants to know that you will not be having rows every day with your new team mates.
