[QUOTE="Matt_96, post: 40012, member: 1260"] Am I the only one going nuts over ES's questions? What in the fresh hell does 'energised' mean? For reference: [LIST=1] [*][B][I]When have you worked towards an ambitious goal? As part of your answer, please describe how you tackled this goal, what set-backs you faced, and what energised you about the situation [500][/I][/B] [*][B][I]When have you delivered a piece of work where quality was an important factor? As part of your answer, please describe why quality was important to you, what approaches you took to help you deliver and what you enjoyed? [500][/I][/B] [*][B][I]You are working on a query for a new client, which has to be responded to tomorrow morning. You were told it was important as Eversheds Sutherland want to impress them. However, you have a lot to work on and the query is taking you longer than you expected. You are now behind on your work for today. You also have emails from other people chasing you for work you have not yet started. What would you do? As part of your answer, please also describe what personal strengths you would draw upon and what you would find energising in this situation? [500][/I][/B] [/LIST] For q1 and q2, I appreciate that a STAR approach is probably necessary for the examples themselves - but how do you think we should include the extra bits about energy and quality? Should they just be separate paragraphs at the end? For q3, it is clear that the question wants us to mix the personal strengths and energising points into our response to the scenario, but I am totally confused about how to deal with the whole 'energising' thing. What do you guys think? [/QUOTE]
