Are you willing to take risk? or Do you like experimenting?

Question

Hi,

I got this question in an interview where I was asked this question that" Are you willing to take a risk? Or Do you like experimenting? I found the question quite complex and could not frame in a proper manner and got messed up. Can anyone say or frame an answer to this question?

Hey, 

In an interview, you never know where the interviewer asks questions for you. So be a bit focused and answer it like "This a good question and a complex one. Personally, I like to experiment with new things, but I keep all my past mistakes in mind before taking a new project. I am a very adaptable person and I pick up stuff very quickly. Experimenting or taking a risk can yield both good and bad results, but the exercise in itself is a great learning experience. Such experience generates experts and I want to be a Java subject matter expert someday".
