| I’m currently an account executive at Smith, where I handle our top-performing client. Before that, I worked at an agency where I was on three different major national healthcare brands. And while I really enjoyed the work that I did, I’d love the chance to dig in much deeper with one specific healthcare company, which is why I’m so excited about this opportunity with Metro Health Center.”…from Indeed.

| “When I graduated, I found a job in sales for a consumer healthcare products company, where I drew on my teaching experience and learned even more about tailoring your message and explaining complex health concepts to people without a science background. Then, I moved into a sales training role at a massive company where I was responsible for teaching recent graduates the basics of selling. My trainees on average had more deals closed in their first quarter than any of the other trainers’ cohorts. Plus, I got so much satisfaction from finding the right way to train each new hire and watching them progress and succeed. It reminded me of my time as a TA in college. That’s when I started taking night classes to earn my chemistry teaching certificate…from the Muse.
Right after graduation, I got a job at X architects and worked on a lot of renovation projects. After X years, I was ready to move on; also, at the same time, the company was running out of works. My boss recommended me to X firm. That was how I got a job there. At X, I worked on big projects like academic and housing projects, but wanted to have an opportunity for X, but it did not work well. They let me go. At X, I had great opportunity to work on interesting interior projects including design and construction and was responsible for managing projects and junior architects, but last X months there, they had no quality projects except tiny renovation projects. I was ready to move on and they knew it. I got a job at X right away after they let me go. At X, I had a great opportunity for design in architecture, interior design, and urban design, but 4 and half years later, the firm was hit by the great recession. A bunch of people were laid off; and I was one of them. The firm disappeared a couple of years later. After that, I was having a hard time to find a right job – a long term job becasue I was not quite a X nor X. In other words, I did not have a specialty. At last job, I was still looking for a X position, but my boss wanted to work on technical aspects of the projects in X and X. I thought it might have been temporary, but liked the job.I made a great contribtution to growth and success of the firm and found out that a technical position was a right path to my professional career with specialty. That is why I am excited aobut this this job.

| Interview Answer – Q9 |
| I need to develope my skills with working with other people’s perception. I tend to think that I am fine as long as I do my job. But it is not like that from my experience. I have to work with perception for my contribution to growth and sucess of a firm so that people know and appreciate it. I think it is kind of a polititical skill. I mean ‘being political’ is a positive way, but not necessarily negative.

| My greatest accomplishment was when I helped the street lighting company I worked for convince the small town of Bend, Oregon to convert antiquated street lighting to energy-efficient LED bulbs. My role was created to promote and sell the energy-efficient bulbs, while touting the long-term advantage of reduced energy costs…from the Muse.
At one project in my last job, the project was going to proceed with poor foundation layout and coordination. X was fired and I had to get involved in the project to redesign the layout with engineering coordination from the start; otherwise, the project could have been in big trouble with construction affecting schedule and budget. Possibly the foundation might have needed to be reconstructed in part or in whole.

| “A key client needed a pitch when my boss was out,” you might say. “I reassured them via video, delivered it, and won the account—showing I can handle stressful situations.”…from Indeed
Whenever there is a difficult situation to overcome, I have to be honest about it to communicate with others the problem for solution. For example, the company was skipping X and creating a lot of X problems. I tried to communicate the problems with the superiors, but they would not listen to me. I had no choice but to be patient and diligent to solve the problems with extra work.

| Interview Answer – Q12 |
| At last job, other team members and engineers did not understand X condtion; they designed the project and did engineering coordination without considering X problems. I took a leadership position to solve the problem in collaboration with construction team and engineers.
