Answers from Travis

What was the last really difficult interview question you were asked? How did you respond?

The question, "Why did you leave your last job?" My answer, I am seeking a position with a trusted company that believes in me and believes that I can be the catalyst for positive team leadership and continued movement toward that company's success.
