Personal question · Problem solving, Self-awareness
The problem that kept coming back
A tap that leaks again a month after it was fixed, a morning routine that never runs on time, the same argument about chores every few weeks. Think about something in your household that kept returning however often it was dealt with.
The two questions
- 1Tell us about a time you kept working at a stubborn problem at home or in your family. How did you finally resolve it?
- 2Think about the first approach you tried. Knowing what you know now, would you have stuck with it longer or changed course sooner, and why?
What raters look for
- Problem solving
- Gathers facts before acting, considers options and consequences, and chooses a workable next step.
- Self-awareness
- Recognizes own biases, limits and emotions, and seeks and uses feedback.
