There are many ways you can evaluate success. Many of these are formal and involve metrics such as completing projects on time and under budget, achieving cost savings, attaining certifications, and other accomplishments which can be measured. Success can also be evaluated by qualitative measures such as how well you are respected within the organization, whether people have confidence in you, and how your contributions have helped the organization achieve its business objectives. You can respond to this question by describing either the quantitative or qualitative measures of success you use to gauge how well you are performing.

"I evaluate my professional success several ways. I track how well I perform on the projects I am assigned to and whether I'm completing my tasks on time and to the designated specifications. The organizations I've worked for use the same metrics. However, I also gauge my success based on the feedback I get from my supervisors, their willingness to assign me more challenging tasks, and how often I assist my associates in finishing their projects and tasks. While these are harder to quantify, I believe they better represent the contributions are making to the organization."
