Tell about a time that you saved your company money.
How to Use
Interviewer: Tell about a time that you saved your company money.
Tina: I've never been in a position to save my company a lot of money, but one situation does come to mind. When we were a smaller company, we didn't get a significant corporate discount on our hardware. After we grew in size, we qualified for a larger discount, but nobody noticed it. I pointed this out and our company was able to save about $10,000 annually.
Interviewer: That's great. Are you good at paying attention to details?
Tina: I think that is one of my best traits. I am a very detail-oriented person, and I like to check even the smallest details to make sure that everything is correct. Even when I was young, I did that.
Interviewer: I guess you must have been an excellent student.
