Tell me one thing you are most proud of.
"My greatest accomplishment was being the youngest employee to be promoted to a manager position in the history of my current company. I worked hard for this and am proud that my dedication to leadership coursework paid off."
"My greatest accomplishment is building my sales book to over 300 accounts. When I started my first sales gig, I was at zero. I worked very hard to build and sustain those relationships."
"I am most proud of my GPA! I graduated with a 3.7 GPA while working part-time. This accomplishment required a great deal of dedication and long nights from me, but they were 100% worth it."
"I was awarded employee of the month in my first month at my very first job out of high school! I always knew that my work ethic was stronger than most, but the affirmation of this was very motivating."
"I am most proud of the fact that I am interviewing for a teaching job at the same high school from which I graduated! Talk about full circle! One other achievement that I am proud of is my volunteer work as an assistant coach for our district's soccer team. The kids were a lot of fun to work with and, although we didn't keep score, it was a great opportunity for me to be a mentor while promoting health and physical activity."
"I am very proud of being self-taught in QuickBooks and Sage. It took me some time and dedication, but I watched every possible online tutorial and YouTube video until I knew I would test at an Intermediate level."

I am most proud of making my own decision to come to the US to study. I believe that the choice I made when I was 12 has changed my life significantly and made me who I am now, and I am proud of that.

You should be very proud of yourself - this would have been an incredible challenge for anyone, let alone being only 12 years old. To further bring your adventure to life, I recommend talking to the interviewer about your journey and what you did to ensure that this change was a success.
