What is your greatest achievement and why?
Before your interview think through everything you have done in the last five years and try to find at least one example which fits each of these situations.
Don't worry if your examples are not earth-shattering, as long as they give some evidence for possessing the quality in question.
You can answer these questions by first describing the SITUATION and/or TASK you had to achieve, then the ACTION you took in the situation and finally the RESULT or outcome. Some interviews consist almost entirely of these types of questions, in which case the order of the interview is set in advance with a standard list of questions. Even more so than usual answer questions honestly - honesty is essential in the job!
