Your interviewer asks this question to assess whether you can fulfill new responsibilities at their organization and whether you fit well with their culture. When putting your response together, align the responsibilities and opportunities at your current role with the one you're applying for. Assure your interviewer that you've researched the job and the culture by speaking about what makes you excited about the new position. No matter how you answer this question, be sure to talk with passion, as that will be one of the top qualities they will be looking for in the candidate they hire.

I got into education to help students and really show them the beauty of math. Many students already express negative ideas about the subject. I think the position will allow me to continue doing this. I get to be a part of a student's mathematical journey and help them succeed.
