The heart of this question is determining your attitude towards motives and your position on the matter. They'll be evaluating your experience level with how effective your communication is.

A common mistake for an employee to make is to assume why a policy is in place before asking clarifying questions. A company often goes through many growing pains before finding what works best procedurally. Sometimes, a policy is replaced through innovation. Other times, an implementing an imperfect policy is the best solution available. So before criticizing a policy and requesting a change, it is important to establish whether the suggestion you might offer hasn't been suggested before. Too often that very suggestion may have already been tried and failed, inevitably replaced with the very policy you're suggesting replacing. So, before making any suggestions for improvements, it is necessary to fact gather and explore its potential before approaching your supervisors with your suggestion. This will reflect that you are thorough in your approach and exemplify a strong work ethic.
