This question is intended to give your potential employer a sense of your work ethic, goals, and overall personality. The qualities that most employers are looking for include determination, motivation, drive, enthusiasm, and a shared collaborative vision. Answer this question by mentioning what constitutes success for you, such as meeting all deadlines and being recognized as a team player by your employer. Do not mention monetary incentives. The objective is to show the interviewer you wish to grow as a professional, not simply be rewarded monetarily.

"Success is meeting my daily, weekly, monthly and annual goals and being recognized as a hardworking professional by my employer. If over the course of my career, I can leave work each day satisfied that I've accomplished something, or learned something new or useful, this also counts as success to me. Ultimately, the company's success is my success."
