Get Hired

Week of October 13 – October 19

Tip of the Week: Ask for Feedback Before You Need It

Do not wait until the end of a job, volunteer role, project, or leadership position to find out how you are doing. Ask someone you trust what you are doing well and where you could improve.

What you are building while you do this

Feedback gives you information you cannot always see for yourself.

  • Learning from feedback develops Self Awareness.
  • Using that information to adjust what you do develops Adaptability.

Afterward, ask yourself: What will I do differently because of what I heard?

These are the kinds of competencies you can recognize and reflect on through your experiences.
