What type of person do you have trouble getting along with?

How to Use

Interviewer: What type of person do you have trouble getting along with?

Karen: Actually, I usually get along well with most people that I work with. But if I had to pick one type of person that I have trouble getting along with then I would say, bossy people.

Interviewer: And why is that?

Karen: I don't mind following a good leader and I have no trouble following orders from my superior, but I get annoyed when a co-worker always tries to tell me what to do. Also, it has a lot to do with how a person says something. For example, there is a big difference between, "Could you check this for me?" and "Check this for me." In my experience, bossy people are usually also rude. So, that is why I have trouble working with them.

Interviewer: Well, how do you deal with a person like that?

Karen: First, I try to show them that I don't like what they are doing. I don't respond to their demands or I give them a look. If that doesn't work, then I have to tell them directly. I try to do that in a peaceful and professional way.
