Even if your example is on your resume, feel free to use it and explain why your accomplishment stands out. Detail everything that went into it and how this falls in line with the career milestones you want to meet. Whether your accomplishment is great or small, they want individuals who are engaged with enthusiasm to make a lasting impact.

"It may sound corny, but sitting here in this interview with you? The fact that we are here right now means that I have achieved all the goals required in my five-year plan to have gotten me to this point in time. I've never reached this point before, so in all honesty, this is my greatest achievement to date from a big picture point of view."
