Describe your facilitation experience. What types of meetings can you lead, and what tools do you lean on most?

Remember to list the types of meetings you have experience leading, even if you are not formally trained as a facilitator. Team leaders with informal facilitation skill sets commonly use tools such as agendas or action items. Also, include your facilitation experience as an assistant facilitator or observer. That demonstrates exposure and foundational knowledge valued by organization development specialists.

"I have a moderate level of facilitation experience. I have expertise in facilitating team discussions and using basic tools such as agendas, action items, and parking lots. I also have training in conflict resolution, brainstorming, and team development techniques.

I am working toward growing my strategic and executive facilitation skill set. I have observed and assisted in these types of meetings, and I am excited to continue my training in this area. I feel it will serve me well as I grow as an organizational development professional.

In regards to tools, I use charts, sticky notes, markers, timers, and voting materials in in-person sessions. During virtual meetings, I use a mix of documentation tools, virtual whiteboards, and voting apps."
