I’m attending a job interview in 2 weeks time, if they ask about my “biggest achievement,” can I talk about school-related stuff like final year projects or competitions? Would interviewers find that boring or unprofessional? I’m worried they’ll expect something more “real world,” but that’s all I’ve got for now. Thanks for your help!

Absolutely. pls do, dont be shy to talk about your achievements. Anything that showcases your skills or effort is what you should be proud of. Interviewers know everyone starts somewhere, and they appreciate candidates who can draw meaningful lessons from all experiences... even those from school times. Sometimes they just want to see how you talk in front of people. How you handle the situations
