What is a work accomplishment you feel very proud about that you'd like to share?

Question

"Looking back over the last eight years of my career, I'd have to say that my biggest accomplishment has been landing the biggest customer that my company has to this day. While I've had many great sales accomplishments, the hard work and true team effort I led to earn this customer's business makes it such a big accomplishment. After being told no over the course of a couple years when meeting with their CEO and hospital administrator, I remained diligent in differentiating our product, service, and pricing. To do this, I had our marketing team put together customized materials for them and that process was exciting. I also got our sales and service manager in front of their key decision-makers. The day I received the call that they wanted to do business with us was one of the most satisfying days of my career. I hope to have many more like this as part of the Stryker team."

As one of the most reputable companies in the medical devices industry and a true innovator with game-changing products like ankle fusion systems and 3D modeling robotics for surgery, Stryker's history is riddled with big accomplishments. None of these innovations would be possible without their amazing team, so your interviewer wants to hear your sense of accomplishment by asking this question. Put some thought into what you consider to be your greatest accomplishment throughout your career. As you discuss it, make sure to focus on the work and effort you had to exert to achieve it and what the impact was on the greater good because of it.

"At my previous job in less than seven months, I went from a customer representative to a customer care supervisor. I did this by going to team lead classes, learning as much as I can about the products, and help my colleagues when they need assistance. We can not grow as a company if we can not grow as a team."

"One of the largest accomplishments is submitting the paperwork for the transition of Notified Bodies from the UK to the Netherlands, for the Notified Body that certified our CE certificates with BSI. Even though the MDD certificates were due to expire, I submitted the transition paperwork and met the deadline in order to keep the MDD certificates. Also, the 13485:2016 Audit was due and BSI could not fit us in prior to our QMS certificate expiring, I sourced a different Notified Body to perform the MDSAP audit and they also performed the ISO 13485:2016 Audit, we were able to save all of our certificates and keep selling our product without having our certificates being pulled or expiring. That was the best regulatory strategy I have ever come up with after meeting dead end after dead end."

"My current company was really lacking in its documentation. From their work instructions to standard operating procedures, documents were either non-existent or thrown into Word with no order. Applying past experiences and practices, I developed one of the process documents for Extrusion complete with details, photos, and instruction with clarity. The supervisors and operators were so profoundly thankful to have something they are able to reference and train on. It was a pleasant reminder that my work can have a positive impact on other people's work environment."
