We are looking for drafters that are prepared to handle more duties. How have you advanced beyond simply doing CAD drawings?

"Currently, I am responsible for mentoring my own junior CAD drafter. My current company puts a large emphasis on mentorship and it was a huge compliment to me when I was asked to be a mentor to someone newer to their career. This is because I have a higher than average level of knowledge in regards to our systems and projects."

Goal-oriented individuals are almost always more likely to gain consideration for positions than those who seem to be drifting in their careers. Employers will typically give more consideration to those who seem truly invested in their own career development and have a plan in place. Discuss your current stage of career development-what you've learned in relation to where you're headed. Talk about how you've taken on additional roles in past positions, gone above and beyond the job description, and would like to develop yourself professionally in the specific job you're applying for.
