When an interviewer asks an open-ended question like this, it can be difficult to know where to begin...and end! This question haunts many individuals who may accidentally go a little too in-depth into their personal lives. It happens. Keep your reply light, and work relevant. Share how you became interested in this career path and what you enjoy about it. This is an excellent opportunity to describe yourself by discussing the strengths and qualities that you bring.

"I am passionate about health and helping people on their journey to total wellbeing. My passion for nutrition began just after high school when I made the decision to better understand food in order to manage my weight and improve my energy levels. In college, I had an internship with a nutritionist for a professional sports team, and I learned so much about the powerful impact nutrition can have on our bodies. I find so much excitement in helping people narrow in on healthy habits that will help them experience a fuller life. I also have a passion for running and yoga and love to remain active, and I encourage this in my clients, as well."
