When the interviewer asks about your greatest accomplishment, they want to understand your work ethic and what professional achievements you value. When responding, show that you take pride in your work and display enthusiasm for your proudest accomplishment. Be sure to include details as to why you feel this particular accomplishment was so important to you and/or your employer.
This question is phrased as 'talk about your...' which is another way of saying, 'Tell us about a time when...' This means that the interviewer wants a specific story-based example from your work history. To craft a well-organized and engaging response, try using the STAR answer method. STAR is an acronym for Situation, Task, Action, Result.
- Situation: Set the stage with the background information the interviewer needs to make sense of your story.
- Task: Continuing to set the stage, give the interviewer an idea of your role and responsibilities in this story.
- Action: Next, offer a detailed description of the steps you took to achieve this accomplishment.
- Result: Last, talk about the specific outcomes that resulted from your actions.
At the end of your response, make a connection between your most significant accomplishment and the accomplishments you look forward to achieving as an Amazon Product Manager.
