Personal question · Empathy, Communication
They did not ask
People who live near us do not always say when they need something. Sometimes the only signs are a change in routine, a full mailbox or a sound through the wall.
The two questions
- 1Tell us about a time someone living near you needed something they did not ask for. How did you notice, and what did you do?
- 2What was hardest about deciding whether to step in, and how did the person respond to what you did?
What raters look for
- Empathy
- Recognizes what others feel and need, and lets that shape the response without losing judgment.
- Communication
- Listens first, speaks clearly and respectfully, and adapts the message to the listener.
