This is another question aimed at evaluating your self-awareness and emotional maturity. The interviewers want to know whether you have an honest, insightful understanding of your personality, if your perspective of your past has influenced your future, and what, if anything, you would have done differently. This question offers you an opportunity to share your self-growth and how that has influenced how you develop yourself, personally and professionally.
