At Anthem, we believe in continuous feedback. Tell me about a time you received constructive feedback. What did you do after hearing this?

"I received feedback from my manager that because I was pushing for so many new ideas, it seemed like I knew more than everybody else, especially some of the staff who had been here for many years. I took this feedback and decided to include others on my team in shaping some of the new ideas I had before bringing them up in the team meeting. This approach helped to get their buy-in."

      Why the Interviewer Asks This Question

      The interviewer wants to know if you can take criticism without getting your feelings hurt. In today's workplace, you can't be afraid to give or receive criticism. It is ok to be candid, but show your future employer that you use feedback to improve your work.
