Answer 1

They generally choose the most appropriate role, depending on the situation.

A lot of people usually do this because people will take into account their skills when accepting and choosing a role. Most people will not accept a role which they have no knowledge or training of, as choosing a role they don’t have any experience with could spell disaster.
