How do you define success?
The interviewer is trying to assess your work ethic, your career goals, and insights into your personality. This will help them determine your motivators, your work ethic standards, and how you'd potentially contribute to the culture of their brand. Meditate on how you'd define success.
"I define success by my ability to reach the goals that are set out for me. On a personal level, the things I wish to achieve in my life. On a work level, the targets that are set out for me as well as the professional development that I seek."
"I define success by what we achieve as a team. The project, as a whole, needs to deliver on expectations before I consider the job a success."

I define success as accomplishing the objectives set for you and the team. Completing a project with the highest quality, on time, and on a budget is just about the highest success story a project team can have.

This is a solid start, but I suggest developing your response by adding a specific example. When have you recently completed a high-quality, successful project?
