Personal question · Self-awareness, Communication
Said by a friend
"You interrupt a lot." "You only call when you need something." "You were unfair to her." A remark like that lands differently from a friend than from a boss or a stranger, because a friend knows you well and risks something by saying it.
The two questions
- 1Tell us about a time a friend told you something about yourself that was hard to hear. How did you react in the moment?
- 2What did you do with the feedback once you had time to think it over, and how did it affect the friendship?
What raters look for
- Self-awareness
- Recognizes own biases, limits and emotions, and seeks and uses feedback.
- Communication
- Listens first, speaks clearly and respectfully, and adapts the message to the listener.
