If we hired you today, what would you accomplish first?

If there were urgent projects in place, I would jump in and support wherever I could to support the team.

      Marcie's Feedback

      It's great that you plan to exceed your KPIs and provide research/analyses for the company. Nice! If you want to, you could also discuss tasks that you would complete in the beginning days of the new job like introducing yourself to colleagues and clients, taking time to learn about P&G's products, and speaking to your manager about what success looks like in your new role.
