"My most successful project is one where I had to proofread and edit a very large number of documents on a very tight deadline (... detailed information pertaining to this accomplishment, such as the company name, and so on). I successfully met the requirements and my superior was highly satisfied. My strong time management skills contributed to my success and will undoubtedly enable me to thrive in this role at your company."
