Why did you choose your career path?

The interviewer wants to learn your motivation and goals for pursuing your career path. This will show what you are passionate about and how you will fit into the organization. Perhaps you chose a field that will allow you to help others, or you chose a career that will allow you to work with numbers or data, or you wanted a career that would allow you to protect people and property. Whatever your reason, share how you decided on your career, the purpose you hope to fulfill, and the impact you hope to make.
