1st Answer Example
"I believe I could improve on some technical skills, including Excel and PowerPoint. Currently, I am at a beginner to intermediate level; however, I would be more comfortable at an advanced level. I have enrolled in an evening/weekend workshop for the next six weeks. We will see how stellar my skills are after that course!"

2nd Answer Example
"Sometimes I have difficulty asking my coworkers for help. I like having control over my daily tasks and taking on new projects, but I'm not always willing to admit when I have taken on too much. When I made a mistake because I was juggling too many projects, I learned that it's okay to ask for help. I'm learning how to organize better and communicate what I need from my team. This skill has helped me be more effective at my job, and it's helped my team work together even better than before!"
