What are your greatest achievement [closed]

Question

Hi, 

One of my friends asked me this question that he got in his interview. He could tell the answer, but could not frame in a proper manner. Can anyone suggest, for this kind of question how people should prepare for the interview?

Answer 1

Employers might ask this question to understand what you consider to be your most valuable accomplishments. To answer, think about a recent example that is ideally related to the job in some way.

Like, "Last year, my team won an award for coming up a most innovative project. My role was to organize the team to breakthrough ways we could speed up the team production process. We found three ways and implemented the one that worked best for us. The process took less time and came up with double output".

Answer 2

This is one of the most challenging behavioral questions you can be asked during a job interview.

The best way to describe your greatest accomplishment while only including relevant information is to use the STAR technique:

• S= Situation. In what context did your greatest accomplishment occur?
   
• T = Task. What challenges did you face or what goal did you want to achieve?
   
• A = Action. What action did you take? What skills did you use?
   
• R = Result. What was the result? What did you learn from the experience? Why is this your greatest accomplishment?

Ideally, you should talk about a workplace accomplishment.

Make sure your answer is relevant to today’s job market and the skills required of today’s candidates.
