Living in a crowded, house with different people has changed my world view, and introduced me to conflict!
This is good, and expands my perspectives.
These are also good exmaples to talk about in an interview.
Conflict can occur in many situations; most often it occurs in daily life when we have disagreements or different perspectives.
I encountered and overcame several conflicts during my time at 95 Lippincott.
As a general rule, the most important rule to conflict resolution is discussion, and empathy: understanding the other person.
So for instance: I found the following issues:
- Loud neighbours => talk to them. Also, find out about them! It turns out there IS a satisfying assignment that can satisfy most people (in a different way than you might think)!
- Dirty roommates => Also talk to them! Have a house discussion!
