Think about a time when you've had to take the initiative to speak up. It might be when you were asked to do something you had not been trained for or a time when you were asked to do something a certain way even though you knew that it wasn't the best way. Don't give an extreme example where you were asked to blatantly do something against policy or procedure, as this just opens you up to answering questions about judgment on the job.

"One specific instance was where I was asked to climb up the scaffolding and do a small welding repair at the top. The scaffolding looked high enough that I should be wearing a harness, but my boss just told me to climb up and do the repair without it. Since we were in a group of people, I pulled him to the side and asked specifically about the height of the scaffolding and whether or not I should be wearing a harness. He actually agreed that the height of the scaffolding probably did require a harness and told me to wear one. He told me that he appreciated my initiative in speaking up, but also in doing it just the two of us and not in front of everyone."
