      Answer Example

      "I saw on LinkedIn that your last Technician gained promotion to overseeing and training new technicians. I am analytically minded but also have a keen ability to coach and train. This job title is an opportunity I would love down the road."

      Admin

      "I am interested in a variety of paths with your company. I could see myself working as a sales assistant in a sales representative role, as I further my knowledge of your product."

      Manager

      "As a skilled manager, I am interested in eventually running a team within quality control. I am very analytical and love to solve problems. I understand that I have to learn the products before I can measure their quality; however, its an interest of mine to note."

      Marketing

      "I have my sights set on becoming a content manager within your agency one day. I noticed on LinkedIn that your current content manager started in the exact position for which I am interviewing, just five short years ago. Management within an arm of marketing is an exciting thought for me."

      Retail

      "I understand that the next step from the retail assistant manager role is to become a full-fledged manager. From there, I am interested in being groomed for a regional management position.

      Sales

      "What interests me most about your company is that there are so many options when it comes to career growth. Ideally, I would like to earn my way into a Territory Sales role, then a Regional Manager position. Eventually, a Director of Sales or Marketing position would be ideal. Of course, I understand that this will take many years of dedication and hard work."

      Teacher

      "I am interested in becoming a Learning Leader within this school. In addition to being a skilled teacher, I can also coach teachers newer to their career and help guide them on curriculum and other challenging aspects of the job."
