Why did you choose a career path in Benefits?

"When I first started out in the workforce, I was not in Benefits or even Human Resources. And I found the world of healthcare to be extremely complex and difficult to navigate. I began trying to work out the nuances myself to try and save my family money on our medical bills, and the more I learned, the more fascinated I became. I realized there are very definite right and wrong ways to do things when it comes to choosing doctors and facilities or when deciding where to fill a prescription or have lab work done. And once I knew the right ways, I wanted to tell everyone, not just my family. Working in the Benefits department lets me share my knowledge with so many people and I get to help them navigate their own unique situations. Honestly, I'm a big Benefits nerd and I like helping people beat the healthcare system that is set up to make them fail."

If an answer doesn't immediately jump into your mind, be sure to take the time to do some serious thinking about this. Be specific when you answer and avoid simple cliches like "I love helping people." You want your answer to be unique and stand out.
