相似题目:What is the biggest achievement in your life?
点评: 作为毕业生,你过去的人生大部分时间花在学校里,要想挑出一个真实的专业个人成就很困难。但是,每个人的一生中总是有一些引以为荣的成就,所以别让这些狡猾的问题坑了你。选一些与这个 position 相对应的能力来说,下面来具体看看这道题。
以下两种回答是最多人喜欢用的,也是最没用的:
I passed CPA/CFA/other exam.
I maintained a 3.8/3.9/4.0 GPA.
不管你自己对这些所谓的成就多么的引以为荣,对于面试官来说这些都是无关痛痒的。当你游走在各个公司参加面试,渴望得到那些工作,仅仅是成绩好,或者学习能力高很难让你脱颖而出,因为大部分公司招聘要求都会对成绩有要求,因此证书和成绩证明的就是重复的能力。
面试官希望听到的怎样的答案呢?
1. 除了学业方面的成就,你还有什么亮点?→ 虽然他们不明着问,内心也是希望 Candidate往这个方向回答的。
2. 令你成功的因素是什么?是什么激励着你?→ 他们想要更多地了解你这个人。
3. 对于你来说,什么是重要的 → 想了解你个人的态度如何,你的价值观与公司相不相符。
4. 选出来的例子不要是能够轻易完成的 → 能够让面试官看出为了能够成功,你是怎样地坚决果断、全心全意。
Candidate 真的需要懂得向面试官展示自己的闪光点是什么。你的成就是不是能展示你有着强烈的上进心和良好的自我认识,是不是实现了你自己设定的目标。

Ø 创办过学生组织或者让其更上一层楼
Ø 通过某些自己害怕的事情克服了恐惧
Ø 克服紧张完成了公开演讲
Ø 为慈善组织筹得了一定金额的善款
5. 参考答案
I have several notable accomplishments in both my education and my work experience.
Probably the most notable accomplishment was delivery of the mobile apps project during my internship at ABC company this past summer. I joined the tech development team at a time when they were in the process of losing a team member due to relocation. That team member was the lead for the IOS version of the mobile app under development. Since I had already developed two IOS apps and no one else on the team had worked with IOS, I was asked to take the lead for the IOS development and deployment, effectively half of the project.
This was outside the original scope of my internship, but definitely mission critical. I was able to deliver the app on time before completion of my internship and have deployed it to the iTunes store. It has already received over 100 positive reviews from customers. Would you like to see it?
