As in, \u201cwhat achievements are you most proud of?&#8221; Or \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessenglishpod.com\/2008\/02\/23\/bep-86-adv-job-interviews-talking-about-accomplishments-part-1\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">tell us about a recent achievement<\/a>?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, when you think back on your accomplishments, what should you choose to discuss? Well, rather than boasting about purely individual accomplishments, think of something that connects to the bigger picture. Or state why your accomplishment helped the company.<\/p>\n<p>[tp no_translate=&#8221;y&#8221;]<strong>Lesson Resources: <a href=\"https:\/\/businessenglishpod.com\/learningcenter\/Premium2008\/content18\/360.78POD\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lesson Module<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/businessenglishpod.com\/learningcenter\/Premium2008\/content18\/360.78QIZ\/presentation.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Quiz &amp;
