"In my previous role, I coded a new software program that went on to be a key component of our customer management system. Doing so required me to put in work above what was expected of me, but it was a project that I was passionate about so I had no problem doing so. Further, I took the lead on deploying the new software by conducting training and serving as the go-to point person. This project was a huge success at my company, and I look forward to having the opportunity to contribute to building something from the ground up at Robinhood if given the chance."

"I'm most proud of the Equity & Inclusion Committee that I worked to build with a team member at my current company. Such a committee did not exist previously, so it required extensive planning and research to build it from the ground up. However, employees received it well, and there are currently 10 active members. We've engaged in meaningful projects and are growing."

Think about a time when you took initiative to build something professionally, clearly outlining the steps you took to do so successfully. Highlight how you leveraged technology, if relevant, and tie your answer back to how you would contribute to innovation at Robinhood if hired.
