      Entry Level Example

      "It's never the easiest thing to hear when I'm doing something that needs improving upon; however, it is necessary to hear it out and accept the feedback to improve my skills and grow. Anytime I'm not feeling 100% confident about my skills, I will initiate a feedback-driven conversation."

      Experienced Example

      "I have always been open to feedback and often ask for it, with the aim of learning and improving. I take it to heart and implement any change promptly when appropriate. When I get feedback that feels misplaced or confusing, I ask questions, trying to understand where it is coming from and its context. Sometimes, the feedback isn't communicated properly, concealing another issue that needs to be addressed. Seeking, accepting, and clarifying feedback is critical in this field. And, when you are a better communicator than the person offering the feedback, it is incumbent on you to get to the bottom of it and resolve the issue at the heart of it."
