Rachelle's Feedback
This answer is a good start. Taking these descriptors that are commonly used by most job interview candidates, think of how you can personalize them further. For instance, how are you detail-oriented? Is there another more exciting way you can describe this? (ie: analytically minded). When you choose your top 3 qualities, be sure to highlight exactly how you will take these qualities and ensure they benefit Pfizer. Action statements will be key for a successful response.
