Tell me about your greatest work related accomplishment.
Talking about your greatest accomplishment will give the interviewer a strong idea of where you place your values. It will also show the interviewer more about your personality, how you like to be motivated, and how to coach you in the future. It is okay to brag a little bit when answering this question. Show that you are proud of yourself and your career accomplishments!
"The greatest accomplishment in my career was graduating 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 showed me that I am able to dedicate myself to my career, and reach the goals that I set for myself. I had to be super focused and make sacrifices like working on the weekends. It felt great to accomplish so much and be recognized for my dedication."

Most recently I have become President of our ACSA Chapter in my area. My focus was to bring awareness to the benefits of ACSA to administrators and provide PD opportunities that directly relate to what admins are being challenged with today. This year we grew our Chapter from roughly 20 members to almost 70 and have provided PD in relation to the retention of teachers and management. We had several community members join whom we are now partnered with to support these goals. We have brought awareness to district to work together to bring sustainable change with retention.

Awesome! Remember to speak plainly in case the interviewer isn't familiar with industry jargon or acronyms like ACSA and PD. Otherwise, great job!
