In front of everyone
You are a summer student who just presented your project to the research team.
During the question period, a team member asked two questions you felt were already answered in your slides. Afterwards your supervisor speaks to you in front of the other students.
What's said in the scene
Supervisor: Alright everyone, let's wrap up the presentations for today.
Supervisor: Good work on the analysis. But you came across as dismissive when people asked questions. That matters here.
Another student: (under their breath) Ouch.
The two questions
- 1How would you respond, both in the moment and afterwards?
- 2Describe a piece of feedback that was hard to hear but changed how you work.
What raters look for
- Self-awareness
- Recognizes own biases, limits and emotions, and seeks and uses feedback.
