Give specific details about what you did, how you did it, and what the results were. Try to pick an accomplishment that relates to the position for which you are applying. Employers like to hear about accomplishments that reduced expenses, raised revenues, solved problems or enhanced a company's reputation.

I don't think this has to be a work-related "accomplishment". Choose an accomplishment that you feel strongly and passionate about because it's more of a personal revelation of your character.

I would say that my greatest accomplishment was moving out to New York and living, paying for my own finances and expenses at the age of 20. It may not be an accomplishment that comes with a plaque, but it helped shape my character and build the integrity of my being than a graduate degree from a school.

I think true accomplishments are personal, and comes from a deeper more meaningful struggle than mainstream "this job" & "this school".

This is a very common question and interviewers will sometimes ask for your greatest accomplishment from your previous jobs. Whatever accomplishment you choose to talk about, support each with a short, entertaining story. Always be prepared to answer this type of question on an interview.
