Personal question · Empathy, Communication
Not knowing what to say
When someone we know is going through something hard, it is not always obvious what they need from us.
The two questions
- 1Tell us about a time someone you know was struggling and you were unsure how to help. What did you do?
- 2What did you learn about what people need when they are having a hard time, and how has that changed how you support others?
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.
