The questions they asked were general enough that anyone who has ever worked should have been able to answer them. Assume the only job you ever had was at McDonalds:

What experience do you have interpreting and applying written policies, procedures, laws and regulations?

In my job I am required to follow all company policies and procedures as documented. This involves a regular review as well as undertanding new techniques, especially as it relates to changing menus and equipment. I regularly reference the large menu boards behind me when processing orders.

Describe a time when you had to alter a plan because something unexpected occurred. What changes did you have to make to accommodate the situation?

Generally when someone orders a large coffee, it is relatively simple to retrieve a cup, fill it, accept payment and move to the next customer. One day, Biff dropped all of the availble large cups into the deep fryer. A new shipment wasn't expected for an hour or two. Until that time, whenever someone ordered a large cup, I gave them two regular cups instead.

Describe the techniques you use to maintain high productivity in your current or previous job?

I attempt to memorize the big menu board. I am able to maintain eye contact with the customer and engage them in conversation while entering their order on the computer terminal. I wear a hairnet. I smear a dab of icy hot under my nose when cleaning the bathroom. Rather than think of ways my current job applies to these questions, I ask a bunch of random strangers to answer them for me and then modify their answers to suit my job.
