If you were writing your memoir, what would it be about?
The Brittanica Dictionary describes the difference between an autobiography and a memoir. An autobiography is an account of a person's entire life, while a memoir is generally a description of only a part of a person's life. In a sense, this question is similar to asking you to tell the interviewers about yourself. The interviewers want to briefly learn something interesting and unique about you. Describe what you would like the world to know if you decided to write a memoir.
"Wow, that is an interesting question! If I were to write a memoir, it would be about my being adopted as an infant and my journey to find my biological parents. I was left outside a hospital when I was three days old and later adopted by the nurse who found me. I always knew I was adopted and considered my adoptive parents my parents. However, when I was 16 years old, I became intrigued with finding my biological parents, and my parents encouraged and assisted me in doing so. After searching for six years, we found my biological mum. It was heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. That is the story I would write about if I wrote a memoir."
