      Rachelle's Feedback

      Excellent response! You sound confident and are very well-spoken. Your professionalism shines through, and it's apparent that you take pride in your work. At the end of your response, I recommend adding a 'qualifying statement' that addresses how your work ethic will benefit the organization, should they hire you.
