How to Answer

During your time together, your interviewer will expect you to take a few minutes to discuss your formal education in detail. While they likely have an idea of your educational background from your resume, they will want you to bring your educational experience to life for them. If you have a college degree, talk about your major and why you chose it. Don't hesitate to discuss any academic awards or recognitions you received. Discuss the strengths gained during your education and how those skills will be used in your new position with Doordash.

Example Answer

"I completed my Bachelor of Applied Technology from Carnegie Mellon University in 2004. During that time I specialized in Data Management and Analysis. I graduated with a 3.99 GPA at the top of my class. At that point in time, big data and analysis were just starting to take off, and I was very excited to be a part of this revolution into the future. I'm very proud of my career path leading up to today, and I'm ready to bring my full set of skills to the Doordash team."
