This is a sneaky way to ask why you are actually leaving your current position. This will tell an interviewer a lot about you on the front end. It will allow him to compare and contrast your previous position with the one for which you're interviewing and use that to judge whether you'll be a good fit or not. In answering the question, do say what you like about the position you're leaving, but don't ever badmouth your current position to justify what you like least. That tends to make one think that you may be the problem, not the position you're leaving.

"My current position has given me a lot of good foundation for my work in anesthesiology, but I'm looking for more challenging cases to advance my skills and increase my knowledge."

"I work with an amazing team of healthcare practitioners and truly, the teamwork and collaboration here is the best part of my job at this facility. I have no complaints about my employer and if it weren't for me relocating in the next few months, I wouldn't be seeking a new opportunity."

"I have always enjoyed teaching in my chosen specialty. I did it as a senior resident, and although I like my current position for the integrity and reputation of the organization, I want a phase of practice that allows me to teach again. I feel my special interests in certain aspects of anesthesiology will allow me to share my passion for things I've come to master in my current position, but which are at a standstill because of the limited variety and breadth and depth of practice."
