      What You Should Say

      Think about what you look for in an employer when you are vetting a new job opportunity. Maybe you value having flexibility in the workplace or maybe you look for strong communication from the executive team about company financials.

      "I aspire to work in a company that values strong communication between employees, listens to their concerns, and offers flexibility in the workplace. It is really important for me that animal care is our top priority no matter the owner or situation. I expect professionalism from every person working with me."

      Stephanie's Feedback

      This is a solid response, but I suggest replacing the word "professionalism" with a different word, as the term professionalism is so broad and can mean so many different things. What is it that is really important for your colleagues to have? (Example: strong communication skills, positive mindset, friendly demeanor, etc.) I suggest naming the specific traits you like to see in your colleagues, rather than just saying "professionalism."
