Show that you are proud of yourself and your career accomplishments!
"The greatest accomplishment in my career was graduating from university as an honors student while still working full-time in a related field. I was top of my class, and working full-time. This success showed me that I could dedicate myself to my career and reach the goals that I set for myself. It felt great to accomplish so much and receive recognition for my dedication."
"I am proud of having been chosen to be a mentor to new hires in the department. I think I've informally mentored and exhibited leadership since day one, and to be recognized for being a great teacher and being able to train and shape the new additions to the department is an awesome pat on the back."
