"I rate my communication skills as a 9/10 as I occasionally have times when I am not as clear as I would like to be. My supervisor and coworkers will attest to my clear and concise communication skills. Because I am an open leader, my team will let me know if I need to clarify anything."

"I will rate myself an 8.5 because I consider myself a strong communicator, which is the foundation of all business success. I always strive to be a better communicator, so I leave the rest of the scale as an aspirational measure."

Focus on describing your written and verbal communication skills. If you have a former supervisor who commented on your excellent communication skills in a letter of recommendation or performance review, use their description in your response. The interviewer wants to know that you can speak clearly with others while properly documenting reports and other forms of written communications.
