“Tell me about one of your successes.” ‘What are you proud of?’ “You say you are perseverant – tell me more.” Recruiters regularly ask these and similar questions during interviews. Coming across convincingly demands preparation; you must be ready to tell an impactful story that presents you in the best possible light.
