Question 1

Your group project needs someone to take the lead. What do you do?

Step up immediately — you already have a plan in your head. Suggest a group brainstorm and get everyone excited about the project. Wait to see what the group wants, then fully support whoever steps up. Propose breaking the project into clear sections with specific deadlines.

Question 2

A friend comes to you upset about something. Your first instinct is to...

Ask thoughtful questions to understand exactly what happened before responding. Listen quietly and make sure they feel completely heard before saying anything. Cut to the chase and tell them exactly what they should do to fix it. Try to cheer them up and shift the energy — you hate seeing people down.

Question 3

You have a big test coming up. How do you prepare?

Organize a study group — you do your best work feeding off other people's energy. Go through everything methodically — notes, textbook, practice problems, double-check. Follow the same study routine that's always worked for you. Consistency is key. Set a goal score and push hard until you hit it. No excuses.

Question 4

Your team can't agree on how to do something. You...

Push for a compromise. It matters to you that everyone feels okay with the direction. Make a call and move forward. You can course-correct later — waiting is worse. Get everyone talking until the energy naturally shifts toward one idea. Lay out the facts for each option clearly so the team can decide based on evidence.

Question 5

What would your closest friends say is your biggest strength?

"You always get things done. No excuses, no drama." "You're always there when I need you. Like, always." "You catch things no one else notices and you're never wrong about them." "You make everything more fun and you hype everyone up."

Question 6

On a team, your natural role is usually...

The one making sure the actual work is done correctly, not just quickly. The one keeping morale high and making sure no one wants to quit. The one making decisions and keeping everyone moving. The one making sure everyone is heard and the group stays together.

Question 7

You're given a new assignment with almost no instructions. You...

Ask for clearer guidelines before you start. You want to do it the right way. Research how similar things have been done before, then map out your approach. Ask around — you want to hear how others are approaching it before starting. Dive in and figure it out as you go. You'll adapt.

Question 8

When something goes wrong on a project, you...

Rally the team: "Mistakes happen — let's stay positive and figure it out together." Identify what needs to change and act on it fast. No time to dwell. Stay calm and help others not panic. Keeping the team steady is your priority. Go back and trace exactly what went wrong before deciding how to fix it.

Question 9

Which best describes you in a conversation?

I think carefully before I speak. I'd rather say less and mean it. I listen more than I talk. I want to understand before I speak. I love talking and asking people about themselves — conversations energize me. I say what I think, directly. People always know where I stand.

Question 10

What motivates you the most?

Connection. Fun. Knowing people genuinely like being around you. Accuracy. Quality. Doing something the right way and knowing it. Winning. Achieving. Pushing yourself to be the best. Harmony. Knowing the people around you feel stable, safe, and supported.

Question 11

Your biggest frustration is when...

Things keep changing and nothing feels stable or predictable. Things move too slowly and people overthink instead of acting. Work is done carelessly or people skip important steps. The atmosphere is cold, boring, or nobody's actually connecting.

Question 12

Before making a big decision, you...

Trust your gut and go. Waiting for perfect information is just delay. Talk it through with everyone you trust — you think better out loud. Research every angle. You want to understand all the implications first. Think about how it affects the people around you, not just yourself.
