"I became certified in business applications when I was just out of high school and loved working on computers and learning programs. I also really enjoy meeting people and building relationships. Being a medical office manager gives me the chance to grow and learn as the healthcare industry expands, but keeps me involved with the technology side of healthcare. I don't think I could have picked a better career for myself."

Interviewers almost always ask what made a candidate choose a particular career. One important thing to remember is, do not mention money. Although you have likely chosen a career that you feel you can support your family with, the interviewer is looking for an answer that points more to the caring side of you.

For instance: "I have always wanted to work in the medical field, but really wasn't sure if the clinical side of the industry was something for me. As I began to research different types of careers, being a medical office manager really seemed to fit the goals I had. I get to be a part of a medical team and build relationships with patients and medical staff, but I don't have to work the clinical side of medications and treatments."
