Job Interview Questions and Answers

Question 25:  Do you consider yourself to be a risk-taker? 

How you answer this question depends on the type of company it is. If it is a start-up company or within a highly-competitive industry, then they are probably looking for those more willing to take risks.  If you believe the company is this type, then offer an example of a risk you've taken in business.  If the company is a well-established industry leader, risk takers are not as highly valued.  Of course, no company is looking for employees who are foolish in their risk-taking behavior, so a good rule of thumb is to place yourself somewhere in the middle -- you are neither too foolish nor overly cautious.
