Jobs are hard to come by, and good jobs are becoming virtually inaccessible. With the changing times, the
interview process has undergone great change. Today, the interview is a process consisting of several
questions that you never would have had to imagine a few years ago.

Some of these job interview questions are trick questions, which are basically asked in a bid to
differentiate between good interviewees and the best interviewees.
One such tricky question can be asked in different ways:
1. why did you take up this profession?
2. Why did you choose this career/job?
3. Why did you specifically select this career as opposed to a myriad of others?

Here are some tips and suggestions as to how you can safely answer this question±
Basically speaking; the answer to this question depends on the profession and job that you have applied
for.

 

If the job is in any noble profession such as law or medicine, you can simply say that you wish to join the
noble profession in an endeavor to do your bit to solve the problems around you. If you are applying for a
job in the legal profession, you can always mention the fact that you wish to help others with their legal
problems.

Another answer that you can give to this question is that you have always had a basic interest in the core
responsibility of this career. For example, if you are asked this question during a programmer job
interview, you can simply say that you always had an interest in computing and computers. Similarly, if
you have applied for a webmaster job interview, you can say that you were genuinely interested in the
digital medium and in computing and internet.

 

you can also point out the growth potential for anyone who joins the said profession. All jobs have a
growth potential and a growth timeframe. The timeframe varies from profession to profession. In some
professions it may be six months to a year, while in others it may be a year or more. Therefore, if your
profession has a growth potential timeframe of six months to one year, make sure that you speak about it
as one of the reasons to enter this profession.

  


Other reason that you can discuss is the scope of the profession that you have applied for. If the job that
you have applied for may soon be part and parcel of every company and industry, it is another good point
that you can make when you are asked why you have chosen this as a career.

 

This can also be one of the most difficult questions asked of a customer care associate or a sales
representative. A customer care associate job is highly stressful and quite hectic. Therefore, asking this
question during an interview would put the interviewee in a quandary.
The best answer to this question is that you are always interested in interaction with people and you wish
to learn/know all about the day to day happenings in a high productivity department, so that you may be
able to understand it better in the future.




With the growing change in the global condition of jobs and finances, people are looking for jobs in
companies and professions that offer stability and cater to many businesses. If your company offers a
stable job, make sure that you inform the interviewer that you consider a stable job one of the reasons
why you have applied for the particular job.

Why shoud we hire you over the others

I have no basis for comparing myself with the people waiting to be interviewed as I have no information
about their profile. But what I can tell you is about myself and why I deserve to be here. Firstly I believe
in myself, my abilities and skills. Secondly, there might be people more experienced than I , who are
vying for this job. In my opinion exposure is more important than experience. A person might have 10 yrs
experience in his field but only 2 yrs worth of exposure. The same applies to practical knowledge and
skills. I am an avid learner and keen on applying my aquired knowledge to practical areas. Everyday is a
learning experience and I make the best use of it. I , therefore dont see any reason as to why I shouldnt be
a part of your prestigious organization.
