Performance is the benchmark for success. We need that in our business so that we keep our skills superior.
Marcie's Feedback
To further strengthen your response, you might talk in more detail about your personal experience of being financially rewarded based on performance and how this motivates you to perform at a high level. You might also want to throw in a sentence or two acknowledging that even though you think performance should be rewarded over experience, you recognize that people with experience contribute valuable knowledge and know-how too. Nice job!
