The interviewer asks this question to see what skills you possess and other jobs you would consider if not hired for the Roofer position. When you research the company before your interview, check if they have different roles they are looking to fill. Describe other jobs in the construction industry that you are interested in and why they interest you.

Avoid saying that you would apply for a job outside the construction industry. The interviewer only wants to hear about careers in the construction industry that you would consider doing.

"If I weren't applying to this roofing position, I would consider applying to the electrician apprentice or framer positions. I worked as a framer for two years before being introduced to roofing, and I have always been fascinated by electricity and the wiring of homes. However, my first choice is to work as a Roofer because I like the challenge of working on roofs."
