Sample Answer
On a $12M infrastructure project I led month-end revenue recognition and cost allocation across four workstreams, mentoring two junior accountants new to project accounting. I broke the process into daily checkpoints, ran a 30-minute training on the accounting entries and the ERP configuration, and provided a templated checklist for controls and reconciliations. I reviewed their first three draft reports and gave targeted feedback, which reduced errors from an initial 18% to under 3% by month three. We closed the month in five business days consistently (previously seven). I also documented the steps and rotated review ownership so both team members gained confidence and we sustained on-time, accurate delivery.
