When given a task or project, do you prefer clear instructions and guidelines, or do you thrive in situations where you have more autonomy and freedom to innovate?

it depends on the circumstance because there’s times where you need to follow the safety rules and guidelines and then there’s other times where you know you just gotta figure it out on your own.

Assuming I am already familiar with the company, it's operations, products, general customer profile, or profiles, and current goals, I would better serve the company by having flexibility. My creative thinking, attention to detail and ability to streamline operations and increase efficiency, thus profits, would make the partnership a win-win. The arrangement would bring me maximum job satisfaction and the employer maximum benefit of my skills.

Hello, I appreciate clear instructions and guidelines because they provide a solid foundation to build upon, however, I also thrive in situations that allow for creativity and autonomy.

The assignment and the due date would affect my answer to this question. I love taking a process and improving it; making it more cost effective and time efficient is something the benefits everyone so if there is a way to do that, obviously I want to do that. I suppose the answer to the question would be I would want the autonomy to be able to do that. I have always had positions where that hasn’t been a question. My boss has left things like that in my hands so I didn’t have to think about it to much.
