Give an example related to your profession. If you are new to the industry, provide an example from a previous job or school project. If you have done volunteer work and completed a project, you can also use that in your response. Interviewers like to hear that candidates spend their free time helping others, showing they have compassion and empathy.

Avoid saying that you have never gone above and beyond the requirements for a project. If the interviewer feels you do the bare minimum at work and do not take pride in your career, they will pass you over for another candidate.

"My previous supervisor was recently audited. She was overwhelmed by the amount of paperwork she had to put together, and I offered to help her. She gave me a large file and asked if I could work overtime to complete the task by her deadline. I worked overtime for two weeks and compiled the data in a spreadsheet to make it easier to understand. The audit went well, and the auditor was impressed with how organized the spreadsheet was. My supervisor was very grateful for the help."
