This question is a way for the interviewer to find out a little bit about what makes you tick. Be honest and direct - don't give a phony answer that the interviewer will see through. Try to tie the roles and responsibilities of an internal auditor to your background.

"Since I was young, I have always liked math and have been good with numbers. I took an accounting class in high school and really enjoyed it - the concepts came naturally to me. As I researched careers in accounting, auditing really appealed to me because it is almost like being an accounting 'detective'. Furthermore, I would enjoy working for one company as opposed to multiple clients. Given this, I think working as an internal auditor will be a great way to apply my skill set in math and accounting to an exciting career."
