She is asking as if expecting a poor response: You said your preference is the overnight shift, Why? What do you expect from that shift? (I’ve worked overnights and most are just excited to find you. I’ve never been asked to present my reason to be evaluated for employment. I’ve been asked if I can reliably report for work 5 nights a week and weekends)

As if suspicious she asks; "You stated a preference for overnights. Why? What do you expect on the night shift?" ("why?"...Usually programs are happy to have you and the only questions is, can you make it to your shifts? Asked to guess what job will be. And what will my answer be an indication of? Creativity? It doesn’t demonstrate the ability to learn what it will be or if I have the aptitude to do it. I have no specifics)

S.O.A.R questions- Scenario, Obstacle, Action, Result. Case manager's have a heavy workload and my answers covered all aspects of the S.O.A.R model in a short and timely manner. This is important so that the interview panel can see that a person is about to work cases in a face pace environment while getting positive results. Too long of answers or answers that show it took months to get results from a project or case does not look like you can manage the heavy caseload.
