#1 There is a better response 

Great ideas in this thread. However, an exceptional candidate would answer the question in a unique way that cannot be prepared in advance - he/she would use some piece of information about the interviewer to show they can do relationship-building by coming up with interesting and engaging questions that are relevant to the interviewer.

#2 What great candidates do

That information can come from the interviewer bio. Even better would be from the previous interview discussion directly. The best candidates I experienced in the fit part were able to co-create an interesting dialogue by managing (storing and using it at the right time) the chunks of personal information I shared, showing genuine interest in me and not only their own success (even if just as a tactic).

#3 How it may look like

One example that I was actually asked (and liked): 

“Given your commitment to coaching colleagues at BCG (that I had shared as part of my short intro), how would you say is coaching different from your consulting work?”

Hi A,

"What is your biggest achievement?" and "What was the hardest challenge in your life and how did you manage it?" are quite good questions.

Just be honest and use the STAR structure to make your answer clear and full.

S - describe the Sutuation (achievement or challenge).

T - Tasks you had to manage.

A - your personal Approach to the sitruation and what exactly you did to solve it.

R - Result of your efforts and the final outcome. Also, what you've learned out of it.

Hope this helps.

Best,

Andre
