During your interview, your interviewer will throw some questions your way that show some insight into your personal drive and motivation. This question is one of those questions. Ideally, they are looking to hear that you have a strong inner motivation to be successful in this field with their company by hearing that you have both the mechanical aptitude and the desire to work on aircraft. As you prepare an answer for this type of question, try to dig from both your own personal interests and your skills and abilities to prove to your interviewer that this was the right career choice for you.

"As I went through middle school and high school, my best skills were always in math and auto maintenance classes, and that initially led me to a career in auto mechanics after high school. While working in that field, my love of flying led me to pursue an Aircraft Power Plant Technology certification at my own pace through a local technical college. Doing so enabled me to continue to work full-time while having a family at home, and I am very excited about this opportunity to break into the aircraft mechanics field."
