"I'm most proud of placing a client that had been working with us for over three months. This client faced many challenges and had actually been working with two other counselors before me. I never gave up on her and she was very thankful."

Now is your time to brag a bit. Tell the interviewer what the accomplishment was, what the impact was, who was affected and what the outcome was. Did you meet a personal goal? Exceed expectations of your boss? Did you create a successful group supporting your clients? Don't be too hard on yourself if the accomplishment didn't win awards or set the bar for future Vocational Rehabilitation Counselors. This is YOUR accomplishment so you want to tell the interviewer why YOU are proud of it.

One client was completely uninterested in working with me. I gave him space; showing up at the same time each week. He eventually came with me willingly. Then I got good information from him about what types of businesses that he would like to work in by walking through the mall. He sat through a couple of applications; which can be quite lengthy. He seemed most relaxed and as he would fit at the AF Base, but a different company handled all placements there.

Stephanie's Feedback
This response shows a high level of empathy and a willingness to meet your clients exactly where they are, which is so critical in this type of work. My only feedback is to include a closing sentence that states why you are proud of this accomplishment and/or what you feel you achieved. For example: "While I have accomplished a lot in my career, I am truly most proud of my work with this client, as I believe that it encompasses so much of my dedication, drive, and compassion."
