      Answer Example

      "I like working with people, which is why I chose to pursue a career in HR. I enjoy the social aspect and like to help people. Having said that, it can also be relaxing to sit in front of a computer and focus on one task at a time. I do well with both people and computers, but if I had to choose one, I'd choose people."
