Step 1: Interpreting the question
Are you aware of how others perceive you? Do you request feedback?
Step 2: Don't say
No clichés or generalisations. Don't be negative about your previous company if they didn't give feedback.
Step 3: Do say
Any specific quotes about you, related to the job, in feedback, reports or evaluations.
