One experience that made me feel proud was when I participated in a community service project during my
college years, which was a significant accomplishment for me. The project involved renovating and painting
a local school that had been damaged by a storm.
As a team, we spent several weekends working on the project, which included repairing the walls, replacing
damaged furniture, and painting the classrooms. We faced several challenges along the way, such as dealing
with limited resources and coordinating with different stakeholders.
Despite the challenges, I was proud to see the progress we made each day and the impact it had on the local
community. We received positive feedback from the school administration and the students, who
were thrilled to have a fresh and colorful learning environment.
What made me even more proud was the sense of teamwork and camaraderie we developed throughout the
project. We worked together to overcome obstacles and make the most of our resources. It was a
truly rewarding experience to see our collective efforts come to fruition and make a difference in the lives
of others. It made us gain more confidence and opened up many opportunities for us to take part in more
works for the community.
Overall, this experience taught me the value of giving back to the community and the power of working
together towards a common goal. It also gave me a sense of personal fulfillment and pride in knowing that I
contributed to something meaningful and impactful.

Do you think material rewards are more important than other rewards at work?
While material rewards such as salary, bonuses, and perks are important motivators for many people in the
workplace, they are not necessarily more important than other rewards such as recognition, personal growth,
and job satisfaction. In fact, studies have shown that non-material rewards can have a greater impact on
employee engagement and retention. Ultimately, the ideal reward system depends on the individual's
values, needs, and goals, as well as the organization's culture and objectives.”
