The CQ Screen

A behavioral read on commitment — Initiative, Follow-Through, Learnability.

A short set of real-world scenarios and reflections. There are no right answers — be specific and honest. About 10–15 minutes.

1.Watch this clip, then tell us about a time when you had to figure it out on your own. What did you do? What did you learn? *

2.You're three weeks into a new job. Your manager hasn't given clear direction, and things seem disorganized. What do you do next? *

3.Why did you answer the new-role question the way you did? *

4.You're halfway through a project and realize your original plan won't work. You're tired, behind, and no one is checking in on you. What do you do next? *

5.Why did you answer the project question that way? *
