I learned that effective listening requires paying attention, avoiding assumptions and understanding the speaker's perspective. I will apply this by being more present during conversations and asking open- ended questions to better understand prospective students' need.
I learned just how important it is to have adequate listening skills as an Admissions Rep, how to not only listen efficiently but notice signs of someone not retaining information or struggling to comprehend the conversation other than visible cues.
