Beyond the words, in a HR interview
- Discretion — how you talk about a sensitive situation without naming names or oversharing detail that was never yours to share.
- Warmth paired with firmness: can you sound approachable while describing a hard conversation you had to have.
- Whether you separate policy from judgment call, and know which one a given story actually was.
