Starting a new role is always a challenge. Not only does the interviewer want to ensure your expectations are grounded and fueled with thorough research; they want to understand why you perceive it as a challenge and how you look at that challenge - negatively or positively.

Explain why these are significant and worth mentioning.

I will also seek out a mentor who is an expert in the industry, as it's important to learn from those who have already walked the path."
