"I define success by my ability to reach the goals set out for me and my ability to grow. On a personal level, success is represented by the things I wish to achieve in my life. On a work level, success is defined by the targets set for me and my ability to meet or exceed them. Professional success also includes my being able to develop and grow in whatever roles I take on.

I know from my research that BAE Systems plc is a goal-oriented organization that offers ample opportunities for growth and professional development. I look forward to being successful here if I am offered the position."

"Success receives interpretation in many different ways, but I know I have been successful when I feel that relief and contentment only accomplishment can bring. As a project manager at BAE Systems plc, success would include having clearly defined objectives, developing high-performance team dynamics, delivering on time, delivering on budget, and meeting the project's goals."

Remember to tie your answer into the success you plan to bring to this particular position, should you be offered the role. For example, if you are interviewing for a project manager position, mention aspects of success such as clearly defined objectives, developing high-performance team dynamics, delivering on time, delivering on budget, and meeting the project's goals.

"As an entry-level employee, I am focused on success in two areas. First, I feel it is important for me to meet and exceed the goals I am given by my manager. I know it will take time, but I strive to achieve excellence in any role that I take on.

Secondly, I feel successful when I am able to add value to my team. I know I am successful when my teammates value my contributions and know they can rely on me to do my part."
