Begin by telling the interviewer what you have liked about your current employer. Focusing on the positives first will help the interviewer see your good intentions! Next, share that you want to leave your current employer to further your career as a personal assistant, and share why this particular opportunity appeals to you more than your current position. For example, you might state, "I realized this past year that I want to focus on being a personal assistant for small business owners. The job is very important and has great meaning, and I think I would do really well at it. I like this opportunity more than my current job because it will allow me to help a business owner create balance between their work and personal life ultimating opening the door for the business owner to have a strong relationship with their family and not allowing their career to be the number one priority."
