The interviewer asks this question to understand what motivates you, what inspires you, and which type of work environment suits you best. In understanding what you loved most about your last job, they'll better be able to determine whether they can meet or exceed your expectations. It could also inform them of the terms you are leaving your previous employer and whether you look fondly at that experience. It may also help them determine why you've chosen to pursue this opportunity. So stay positive, using professional terms. Focus on how they helped your career while expressing gratitude for the experience and the relationships you've built.

Try to make your responses as structured and concise as possible. Avoid rambling or delivering roundabout answers. It is recommended to use the STAR method when structuring your answers. Address each answer by first describing the SITUATION involved with your example. Then move into the TASK this situation required. Then share the ACTION you took and the RESULT of your actions. This method will add structure to your answers.

As an external audit manager of multinational companies, I have enjoyed many aspects of my previous job. One of the things I loved most about my last job was the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients and team members and to learn from their unique perspectives and experiences.
I enjoyed the challenge of working on complex audit engagements and collaborating with clients to help them achieve their goals. I also appreciated the opportunity to work with talented and dedicated colleagues who shared my passion for delivering high-quality work and providing exceptional client service.
In addition, I appreciated the culture of continuous learning and development that was fostered by my previous employer. The firm invested in training and development opportunities that helped me to stay up-to-date with emerging trends and best practices in auditing, which I found very valuable.
