The interviewer is asking you this question because they want to gauge how passionate you are about public relations. They also want to hear more about your background. This is a good opportunity to talk about how your education, experience, and skillset are a great match for the role.
"In college, I majored in communications because I was interested in writing and public speaking. After graduation, I landed a job as a public relations specialist and the rest is history. It was through this position that I discovered my love of helping companies manage and organize both their internal and external communications. I enjoy the challenge of creating and nurturing a positive brand image and identity for the company. Plus, I'm naturally adept at writing press releases and putting together media kits, in addition to working with members of the press to manage those releases. Over the past several years, I have gained substantial experience managing others and I know I'm ready to take the next step in my career. I greatly look forward to leading your public relations team."
