Be careful how you handle this question. They want to know that you aren't afraid to challenge others within a working group, but that you also recognize that you can be wrong. My strong answer to this question was the reason I didn't go further in the interview process. I believed I was right and I didn't care that my interviewers were trying to paint me into a corner. In the end it was good that I didn't go further in the interview process because I would've hated working with those types of people (always asking "gotcha questions" to try and prove that you can be wrong). I like to focus on the task at hand instead of playing mind games. Very often in business, there is a wrong and right answer. As fun as it is to try and expand everyone's perspective by discussing many possible scenarios in which you might be right or wrong, it seems like a waste of time to use this approach on an issue which is black and white.

I had a character in mind, but they did not fit the "cartoon" category. Instead, I asked if it could just be a fictional character. They responded with the affirmative, so I said Samwise Gamgee from the LOTR trilogy. The reason was because of how he was such a supportive and empathetic friend to the main character. He would do pretty much anything for him and help him with his goals and troubles. It's always great to have a friend like that, but those people are rare. The next best thing is to be that kind of person, which I answered in that way. Less
