"I'm actually very familiar with both. I grew up around MAC computers at home. There was a desktop computer my father had for years. I used that until getting my own laptop for college. In grade school, there were only PC computers. The same was the case when using computers on my college campus. If I wasn't on my laptop, then I had to use a PC. Using both has put me in a great position to learn. Now, when people struggle switching from one to the other, I know how to help them."

Sometimes employers only work with products from specific brands, either for financial or partnership reasons. When hiring, they may give preference to people who are familiar with the brands they use. That being said, this is not a win-all or lose-all question. If you are unfamiliar with either MAC or PC, make that known and the company, if willing, can simply train you or ask you to familiarize yourself before working. They may also ask this question because of the software programs they want you to use for photos. PC and MAC do not always overlap. Again the company has the choice of training you or asking you to train yourself.

"I've been a MAC user most of my life, but recently started using PC. I have enough technical knowledge that I would have no trouble adjusting if that is required for the job."
