Take care with your choice of words and what they might communicate. Acknowledge the importance of clear communication in the workplace. Describe what you contribute to enhancing clear communication. If the communication standards set into practice by your employer were not what you felt they should be, communicate this. Talk about how you'd find opportunities to clarify when communication was unclear. Provide specific examples of situations where you had to ask questions, mirror what was being communicated to you, and how a consensus was reached.

"I've always prided myself on being an effective communicator. It's been my practice to meditate on how I wish to communicate something, then communicate and ask if they have any clarifying questions. But early on, I learned this wasn't sufficient enough on its own. There are too many variables with macro behavior. I noticed that, for some, effective and thorough communication can be intimidating. Especially when that person might have had a question but was too embarrassed to ask it. So, asking if they had questions wasn't enough. Now, I take the adage, 'message sent is message received' to heart. Now I ask them to mirror what I've said to them and then ask what part of what I explained remains unclear in how I communicated it. That's worked better for me and yielded better results."
