      Why the Interviewer Asks This Question

      Taking pride in what they do daily is something the USPS takes very seriously. The #PostalProud movement and the Inside Blue initiative are just some of the things the organization does to exude their pride and achievements. To get your sense of belonging in this environment, your interviewer wants to hear what makes you proud.

      How to Answer

      First, it's important to notice that this is a very open-ended question that you can answer about either your career or your personal life. If you are struggling to think of an accomplishment worth sharing, don't fret! You can start by looking over your resume and noting some of those shining moments from your work and volunteer experiences. Describe the accomplishment and why it was great for you. Stories about overcoming obstacles and achieving challenging goals are always great to share! Give an example that shows you are determined and motivated.
