The interviewer wants to hear about your education to determine if you meet the company's requirements. Some companies require a high school diploma or GED, while others require education in a trade school or apprenticeship program. While education is important in this field, experience is even more valuable. Explain how your schooling has prepared you for this position, and include any courses you may be enrolled in that are relevant to the job.

If you made it to the interview, you must have the education the company requires. Avoid being dishonest and saying you have a high school diploma or GED if you do not, as the interviewer can ask for transcripts to validate your claim.

"I graduated from Dos Pueblos High School two years ago and received my high school diploma. I am currently finishing my associate's degree in construction management and will complete my bachelor's degree in two years. After high school, I was accepted into an apprenticeship program, where I have worked for the past two years learning all types of roof construction, installation, and repair."
