how would you describe your job at the privious company/?

Answer:
When applying for jobs, you already have your references—people who you know will sing your praises—lined up. But in an interview, sometimes you’ll be the one asked to give perspective on your current or most recent boss.
As it turns out, most job seekers don’t exactly have the best things to say about them—to us, at least. In a 2018 Monster poll, the majority (76%) of U.S. respondents said they currently have or recently had a toxic boss. That’s compared to the minority (5%) of respondents who are BFFs with their boss and 19% who described their boss as a mentor, or someone they can learn from and know has their back. The bad bosses, however, can best be described by our respondents as power-hungry (26%), micromanager (18%), incompetent (17%), or just never around (15%).
