About Lesson

22: Give an example of a goal you set and how you achieved it.

Interviewer: Give an example of a goal you set and how you achieved it.

Candidate: One goal I set was to improve my proficiency in cloud computing, specifically AWS, to enhance my ability to develop and deploy scalable applications. I started by setting a timeline to complete the AWS Certified Solutions Architect course within three months. I dedicated a few hours each week to study, completed hands-on labs, and joined study groups. I also applied what I learned by working on a personal project that involved setting up a cloud infrastructure. By staying disciplined and focused, I achieved my goal and earned the certification. This new skillset allowed me to contribute more effectively to my team’s cloud-based projects.

Career Coach Tips:

  1. Specific Goal: Clearly state the goal and why it was important to you.
  2. Action Plan: Describe the steps you took to achieve the goal, including any resources or strategies used.
  3. Outcome: Highlight the successful outcome and how achieving the goal benefited you and your work.
