Time of overachievement (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

era

'time' is the definition.
(an era is a period of time)

'of overachievement' is the wordplay.
'of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ERA' can be found hidden inside 'overachievement'.

(Other definitions for era that I've seen before include "Stage" , "day" , "Significant time" , "Long historical period" , "Period, age" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
