Model Answer 1:

Introduction:
Thank you for providing me with this interesting topic. I am grateful for this opportunity to share a personal experience of successfully completing a project or assignment.

I believe that completing projects or assignments is an integral part of our academic and professional life. For this topic, I would like to talk about a time when I successfully completed a group project in my college.

When it was:
The project was assigned to us in the second semester of my second year of college. The deadline was set for two months later.

What the project or assignment was about:
The project was a group research project on the topic of renewable energy. We were required to conduct research on the various types of renewable energy and their potential benefits and drawbacks. We also had to prepare a presentation and a research paper to present to our professor and classmates.

How difficult or easy it was:
At first, the project seemed quite daunting as we had to conduct extensive research and analyze large amounts of data. However, as we progressed, we found that working together and sharing our findings made the project much easier. We also had access to various online resources and books from the college library, which made the research process less difficult.

And explain how you felt about it:
Completing the project successfully was an amazing feeling. Our group worked hard and put in a lot of effort to make sure that we met the deadline and produced high-quality work. The sense of accomplishment was overwhelming, and it felt great to know that our hard work paid off. Moreover, the experience taught me the importance of teamwork, communication, and planning in achieving a common goal. I believe that the project was a great learning experience, and it helped me to develop important skills that apply to both academic and professional life.



Model Answer 2:

Thank you for this topic. I was assigned to work on this project by none other than my company CEO a few years ago when we were about to launch some of our new children’s products like backpacks, hats and socks. And my task, as an Assistant Manager of the customer relations department, was to contact, not only our existing customers but also the ones who stopped doing business with us, and prepare a report on their inputs as to how those products were likely to be received by the children.

But, the problem with this project was that even though we had all the data and contact addresses of our existing customers, we didn’t have data on the contact address of the ones who stopped doing business with us a long time ago. So, having no clue about how to acquire those missing data, I decided that I was going to call all the businesses and stores in my country, which were involved in selling the same kinds of children’s products, randomly to find out if they at some point did business with my company.

Needless to say, it was a challenging task since many of those former business partners of my company had either closed their businesses or changed their contact details. Besides, many of them were not willing to cooperate with me also, apparently because, they thought that it was just a waste of time for them.

But, in the end, it was a success, and I felt really good about my achievement since I was finally able to accomplish what I was assigned to do, and that too within a short period of time. Besides, it also made me feel a bit proud since I didn’t really take anybody’s advice, neither from anybody inside my company nor outside of it, in taking some of the decisions that I eventually needed to make in order to complete the project successfully. However, of course, my best moment arrived when my CEO told me “well done and thank you”.
