They're also looking for concrete evidence of your competency as they consider you for this role at Google. A successful answer will highlight your passion for your work and the aspects that give you fulfillment. Be sure to mention any accolade or outcome that directly followed this accomplishment. Assure your interviewer that you continue to set career goals in the field and would continue to do so in this new opportunity at Google.

"There are a couple of work-related accomplishments that come to mind. During my recent annual performance review, my director commended me for being so flexible and adaptable over the last year and a half during a pandemic. Our team was under immense pressure when we had a drastic amount of turnover and I had to help lead the way in several projects I hadn't previously been working on. While I'm not a person that needs a pat on the back, it was very humbling to be recognized personally by them. I've also collected a number of comments that I've received from my colleagues that I work with on a daily basis. From my first day on the job, they've always appreciated my honesty, knowledge, and friendly personality."
