Tell me how you brought value to your most recent position.
This question offers another way for the interviewer to ask about your recent successes and bragging points. The interviewer wants to know which top skills you will highlight if you had to narrow down where you brought the most value.
Perhaps you influenced changes that saved the company money. Maybe you were the top performing manager in your department. Think of your strengths in action! If you are reliable, talk about how consistent your work has been and how you are in constant support of your coworkers. If you have a strong work ethic, share how you accomplished a project in the midst of harsh obstacles.
"In my last position, I brought value through delivering an increased customer base and a stronger contractor network. My ability to build strong relationships helped me secure and maintain a great deal of new business."
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

These are wonderful ways to bring value to an employer. A couple of suggestions:
1) Include measurable results so that the interviewer can assess your success through more than a statement only.
2) In the end, make connections between this value and the value that you will bring to Exxon if you are hired. Interviewers always need to know...how will they benefit from hiring you?
