As I've worked closely with hiring managers on recruitment efforts, I know that they like to use a variety of questions to learn a bit more personally about each candidate they interview. Air Canada needs to know that their top candidate is a great personal and cultural fit, and this question allows them the opportunity to get to know who you are a bit better.

"I certainly do not regret the direction I have taken my career; however, if I had to start over in a new direction, I would likely pursue my Degree in Education and become a teacher. Both of my parents were teachers, and they seemed to have a very fulfilling careers. I enjoy coaching and leading others, so I would welcome any opportunity to train and develop staff here at Air Canada."

"This is a great question and one I've never put a lot of thought into because I'm so happy on this career path. I would say that my passion for animals would have probably led me to a career in veterinary medicine."

"While I'm so excited to embark on my career in the airline industry, and hopefully here at Air Canada, I would probably have considered a career in the music industry somehow. My family has always had a natural talent for music, and I'm well-versed in piano, guitar, and singing. As for now, these remain great family hobbies."
