      1st Answer Example

      "I rate my communication skills as a 9/10 as I am not always as clear as I would like to be. My supervisor and co-workers will attest to my clear and concise communication skills. Because I am an open leader, my team will let me know if I need to clarify anything."

      Manufacturing Engineer Example

      I would rate myself as a 9/10. I am able to share thoughts, ideas, and even explain ideas that may be foreign to those listening very well. I have demonstrated this level of communication across phone, email, or in person.
