The interviewer reviewed your resume prior to scheduling the interview so they already know your experience. By asking this question, they are giving you a chance to share your passion for your work and to remind them why you are a strong candidate.
Focus your answer on the jobs and tasks you've done that are a strong fit for the position. You want to show the interviewer you are the best candidate for the job.
"I earned my bachelor's degree in HR Management four years ago. During my third year of college, I had the chance to complete a rotational HR internship at a local power company. Over the course of six months, I had the chance to spend time in each of their HR departments. Talent Acquisition and Development was by far my favorite. I enjoyed partnering with the company's leadership to help them find the right candidates for each job, and I liked developing relationships with the new hires as I walked them through the onboarding process. I was offered a job with the company when I graduated and I've spent the last four years sourcing and interviewing candidates and onboarding new hires. I've also gone through the process of implementing a new ATS system."
