1st Answer Example
"I take instructions very well. Being an apprentice, I swap between classroom training and on-the-job training. I take instructions well in both settings. Recently, I was given instructions for a more complicated job site. Even though some of the instructions were very simple, I was happy that my supervisor walked me through it so thoroughly to ensure that I understood before leaving me to it on my own."
