      Answer Example

      "I feel most accomplished when I am able to create an event that pleases the guests and makes an impact. I put together a concert for an event that benefitted a non-profit and raised over $10,000. Each of the vendors and the organization and I all worked so well together to make it happen. It felt so good to be able to not just have a fun event but to have something to show for it."

      "I hosted a virtual magic show shortly after office closures. The magician we worked with was super funny and professional, finding ways to engage with the audience and call for volunteers. This event was a big win because it wasn't just another meeting where people were blankly staring at their screen. We received over 700 attendees (500 being the number to describe a great event in San Jose) and supporting comments such as "I wish we could do this every Friday" and "This was the first time I laughed out loud in a really long time. Thank you." I introduced value to my attendees, and I felt their excitement throughout the event."

      A fantastic example of being innovative at work and enjoying what you do! It's great that you mentioned some measurable accomplishments, such as 500 attendees as a success benchmark and the reviews that you received after the event. Great response.
