"In college, I had many data analytics projects in Excel. The data is critical to the work we did, so I made sure that I took my time when entering and reviewing information. I did not multitask when I was working on such projects, and I exited platforms that could be distracting when I needed to (IE Teams, Zoom, Google Chats, etc.) really focus. I took breaks as needed if I started to make mistakes, and when I had a finished product, I spot-checked my data and formulas and would often have a team member review it for accuracy as well."

"I take pride in any work with my name attached to it and therefore, always review my work before I submit it. Whether I am typing an email or handling cash, I always check my work twice and sometimes even ask a co-worker to review it first. Being detail oriented and thorough are two of my greatest skill sets."

"As a branch manager, I'm responsible for many different reports that are sent to senior leaders. I also process loan applications, create employee schedules and send out important staff memos. No matter which responsibility I am working on, accuracy is critical. I often work on my most important projects first in the mornings, when I'm most focused and can limit distractions in the office. If I'm pulling financial reports, I always double check my work and use a calculator or formula in Excel to ensure the data is correct, versus relying on mental math or handwritten calculations."
