You talk to the people who are telling you something is wrong.I have done rotations prior for another health related degree. During these rotations, at least once, it was brought to my attention (by my adviser) that the site had issues with me, however, they would not say what. I am older now, having gotten that degree, and am working on my pre-med. I have striven to find ways to be a team player and listen to others. I feel like I always was doing this, however.
I want to be successful in future rotations/clinical hours/ shadowing. How can I get *actual* feedback about what I am doing wrong/how exactly I am coming across in a way that others deem me to be difficult? Whenever I ask for specifics so that I can change, I get told they can't go into specifics. I am very frustrated wanting to improve myself and not knowing what area needs improvement. Is there a way I can discover what is wrong? A better way to ask? I have asked friends and family and also gotten no where. I am looking into therapy, but I am not sure this will be very helpful as I need to know what is happening in the work relationship that people are feeling I am difficult. My only thought is to be up front with anyone I shadow and ask them to please be very blunt about anything at all I can address. Any other ideas?
And ask for feedback from trusted mentors
