Applied on-line to advertised position I was truly interested in. Received back an e-mail for a personal invitation to schedule a day/time for an interview via on-line scheduling program. System promptly responded with confirmation e-mail. Received one personal call to change the date. Arrived at interview on time and interviewed on time. Interviewed by hiring manager, was given lot's of informative information regarding the position, felt relaxed as far as the interviewer and my skills for the position. I brought a copy of my resume that was appreciated and used, sent a follow-up thank you letter via e-mail - always ask for interviewers card/e-mail address. About a week later I followed up with a phone call and this particular time gave me major bonus points and I was hired for a job I really wanted!

Interviewers who ask this question likely want to know how you acted in a real-life situation in which you had to make a sacrifice to stay true to values. If you can tell a relevant, honest story that shows you making a moral decision even when it was hard, you can assure the interviewer that if a similar situation arises at their company, you would still do the right thing. Think about a situation you can share ahead of time to make sure you tell it accurately and effectively.
