AI Evaluation:

Your response touches on key aspects of clinical consulting, particularly in the context of rehabilitation services, but it could be more structured and focused to maximize its impact.

Evaluation of Your Answer:
1. Content Relevance: You effectively highlighted your background as a physical therapist and your experience with healthcare technology. This establishes your credibility in both clinical and consulting roles. However, further specifics related to rehabilitation services and direct examples of your consulting experience would strengthen your argument.

2. Clarity: The answer contains some repetitive phrasing and pauses that disrupt the flow. A more concise articulation of your role would enhance clarity.

3. Connection: While you mention bridging communication between clinicians and IT, elaborating on how this specifically benefits rehabilitation services (e.g., improving patient outcomes, streamlining documentation) would clarify the significance of your role in a clinical consulting context.

4. Examples: Including a brief example of a specific project or situation where you successfully facilitated communication between teams would render your answer more concrete and memorable.

Improvement Suggestions:
- Introduce your experience with a strong, clear statement about your clinical background.
- Give a specific example of how you've successfully aided rehabilitation services through technology.
- Conclude with the impact of your work—what improvements or efficiencies were achieved as a result.
