I’d like to talk about a time I finished task before deadline in my job. So it happened in May 2020 after I completed a six-month coding bootcamp. Also after a few months of job research, I finally landed a job in Guangzhou. On my first day at work, my manager assigned some programming assignments to everyone, including my colleagues and me. We all thought the assignments were very challenging and daunting, especially for me because I only received six months of training and I didn’t have a bachelor’s degree. So I decided to work diligently and I even bought my laptop back home and I usually stayed up late. I often found myself working on weekends. Finally, before a week of the deadline, I finally finished every task. I even found time to help my colleagues with their tasks. The reason I felt very confident was because everyone said I did a very excellent job because I even helped them with the most difficult part of their assignments.
