Tell me about an idea or change you implemented in your past job?

"I noticed that the company was throwing away glass bottles and paper products, so I suggested they start recycling. I talked with the CEO and announced the plastic bins I put out in the copy room and cubicles. Everyone was happy that I made the suggestion and took action to make it happen!"

"We were using an overpriced vendor for our office supplies. I knew someone who managed an office supply company, and I was able to negotiate a bulk buyer's discount for our company while cutting out the vendor. Our annual savings allowed us to readjust our company budget in innovative ways."

Think about the little things you have done that have helped boost employee morale or made a difference in your team! Give an example and be specific about what you did and how it affected the company. It doesn't need to be dramatic, but it can be.

Change can be profound or incremental. The goal is to confidently exhibit your strengths and to market to all potential employers what you have to offer.
