      Amanda's Feedback

      It sounds like this is a strong example that you can leverage better to illustrate your training expertise. Consider providing more information, such as how many new employees you onboarded and the kinds of advanced training you provided. Did you perform team training or one-on-one training? Did training take place in person, virtually, or through both avenues? You can also share how training helps others succeed by sharpening existing skills, providing new skills, or enabling them to utilize new tools or strategies.
