    So if you were asked "Tell me about a time where you worked on a project with a team and how did you work together" - This question would fit in teamwork theme

    My advice would be to prepare examples ahead of the interview around these themes so you have them ready to talk through. I would also recommend using the STAR method in your answer Situation Task Action Result to give a succinct response
