The best way is to provide an example of when you came up with a different approach to an issue – It might be any work situation or a real problem. Tell a success story. Express how your solution made the difference!

Be sure and use a suggestion that was accepted and was then considered successful. One related to the type of work applied for is a real plus.

I notice a lot of things wherever I am. Sometimes things that affect me personally, or things I have learned in the past to help better/make easier the lives of people/work. And at first, I didn’t think these “suggestions” mattered, until I realized, that I never gave it a chance- at worse, my employer would appreciate the detail-orientedness in me. So I started noting details in my head, and suggesting them when my employer seemed receptive to feedback.
