A: "Hi Matt, I finished the assignment on the documents. Did you get a chance to review them?" B: "Yeah. I already reviewed them. It was pretty good." A: "Since it was my first project, I was wondering if I can get some feedback." B: "Well, you finished the project on time. And seeing how it was your first assignment, you did very well." A: "Thanks. If it wasn't my first assignment, where do you think I need to improve?" B: "That's a fair question... I think you could have spent a little more time documenting the difference between Process A and Process B. You showed a lot of the similarities, but lacking a little on the differences." A: "I'll keep that in mind. How about the structure? I changed the template a little because I wanted to add a section for recommendation." B: "I liked the addition. Usually people just enter it into the comment section on the bottom but having a clear section makes it stand out. That was good." A: "Was there anything else? I like to get feedback early so I can improve." B: "No problem. Everything else on the assignment was great. The only other tip I can give you is sending me more updates. If I knew you were stuck on section C for a while, I could have saved you a lot of time. So keep me aware on your status." A: "That makes sense. I'll do that. Thanks for the feedback." B: "Don't mention it. And good job on the assignment." A: "Thanks."
