Professional growth can mean different things because there are different ways to develop yourself. You can use this opportunity to show the skills you've taken the time to improve and explain why you chose the skills you did. Detail any new skills that you developed recently in college and during internships and describe how you obtained them. Finish by talking about your willingness to learn new skills and grow as a professional.

"As an entry-level engineer, I'm always learning new skills because we have to do such varied work. No two days are ever the same, so I always have the opportunity to learn new skills. I feel my skills in problem solving and technology are improving all the time--I'm fairly early on in my career and I still have a lot to learn."

"To keep developing myself as a professional, I've asked a past instructor and practicing engineer, who I've known for years, to be my mentor. I reached out to her recently and explained where I was in my career and the guidance I was seeking. For me, this mentor/mentee relationship has already been very beneficial. We meet every other week and she gives me tips and readings and challenges me to push myself professionally and personally."
