If you weren't applying for this roofing position, what other positions would you consider?

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."
