There's no "right" answer in interviews. What distinguishes impactful responses is the thought clarity, clubbed with structure delivery and a couple of personal instances. Strike the right balance between substance and over-explaining.

In interviews, your stories should explain what you did, they should show who you are. Use real experience to highlight what drives you, how you reflect, learn and grow from challenges and how you create impact. Don't just say what you did, say you who you become because of it.
