Sample Answers

Do you like texting? I'm a big fan of texting, it's just so convenient to quickly send a message to someone and get a response right away. I use it all the time to communicate with friends and family.

Do prefer sending or receiving text messages? I think I prefer receiving text messages, it's always nice to get a surprise message from someone and feel connected. But I do enjoy sending texts too, it's a great way to reach out to someone and start a conversation.

Have you ever received a confusing text message? Yeah, it's happened to me a few times, especially when someone sends a message that's out of context or doesn't make sense. But usually, I just respond with a question mark or ask for clarification and we're able to clear things up quickly.

In what circumstances is a phone call better than sending a text message? I think a phone call is better when you need to have a longer conversation or discuss something more serious. Texting can come across as impersonal sometimes, so a phone call is a better way to show empathy and have a more meaningful conversation.
