"My attention to detail is a point that I have been working on a lot this past year. I am meticulous but, in the past, have pushed my documentation back a little bit. It's something I am conscious of and continually working on. However, I am known for my attention to detail in meetings. My teammates have joked in the past that I observe and remember even the tiniest details of our discussions."

My co-workers would describe my attention to detail as very strong. Because I came from the engineering field of study, I have a professional sense to find deviations and errors easily. In the next stage and when attention to detail is required, I can very easily point out discrepancies.
I think big-picture as well but have always had full attention to details when needed.
