Be sure you answer this question honestly, especially because the interviewer may be contacting your reference and may ask them the same question. Employers want to hire staff who put their egos aside and accept feedback because they want to continue to develop professionally. Provide a specific example of a time you were offered constructive feedback, you accepted it gracefully, and you applied it to your work immediately because you wanted to improve.

"I am eager for feedback because I am always looking to grow and improve. I welcome feedback that is spoken kindly and helps me to develop professionally. Last year at work, my manager noticed that I only shared my ideas for improvement with her and never in our team meetings. I can be hesitant to share in big groups, but she encouraged me to speak up because my ideas were good. Since then, I have been working on speaking up more in groups and sharing my ideas for improvement. Several of my ideas have been implemented and that has helped my confidence, so I am hopeful it will only continue to improve."
