QUESTION 24 OF 30

How do you respond to negative feedback?

Whether it is a permanent role or internship, you will receive feedback on the job formally and/or informally. The interviewer wants to know how you respond to negative feedback to ensure that you are mature enough to handle constructive criticism.

"Although I strive to work hard so I don't receive negative feedback, I know that there is always room to grow and I view constructive criticism as something that can help me. I'd rather be given negative feedback so I know which areas I need to improve instead of not knowing where I'm falling short."

When you answer, confirm that you are receptive to all feedback--even when it's negative--and that you strive to learn from it. Try to show the interviewer that you can be professional even when something is hard to hear or you don't agree with it.
