Let's face it, we can't all be in love with our job every single day. Employers know that, and they realize that there are certain tasks that aren't exactly scintillating or exciting. When you answer this question, it's ok to be honest about what you don't like, but provide some insight into how you still find a way to stay motivated to do your best work even when you're not loving your job.

Even if I'm not excited about a specific project, I try and remind myself that it's still important to do my best work."
