"I was taught from a young age to do things with passion and pride and I'm happy to say that I've brought this same sense to my career. In my current role, my work product, being on time, and accurate with my work has a great impact on a large number of customers and I give it my all. Hearing a customer say thank you always lets me know my hard work was worth it. As a water treatment operator with your team, I would never lose sight of the people that would be drinking and using city water, and taking pride in what I would be doing here would be something I never take lightly."

Answer this in a heartfelt manner as you discuss a time you've shown pride in your previous work. As you think about this prior to your interview, pride comes from knowing who your work impacts, helping others, continually progressing, and making a bigger difference in what you do. No matter what example you give, be sure to show excitement for having pride as a water treatment operator.
