Yesterday, I'm sitting in an interview asking the candidate some questions. As he's answering, I realize that this guy is talking different than some of the other folks that I've interviewed for this position.
The specific question at hand was about his management style. He answered like most people, talking about guidelines, performance, creativity, efficiency, etc. What I noticed was in between all the standard answers was some subtlety. He talked about adding a personal touch to the work, respectfully working with others, progressing the teams abilities and careers.
What came across to me was that this guy really is passionate about what he does and what's more, he cares about others and how he can contribute to them. It was a subtle taste of prose in between his hard line answers that I noticed.
That subtlety of genuine excitement about his job and desire to help others achieve the success that he has set him apart from other candidates. Hopefully, this can help you do the same and set yourself apart from others in your interview.
