You may have experiences in construction that did not make it on your resume, and the interviewer wants to hear all about it. They want to hear how you were introduced to construction, where you started and in what capacity, and where you have worked. Describe any construction experience you have, even if it was not installing tile. Many trades overlap in the construction industry, and the interviewer wants to hear if you have any other construction experience that might benefit their company.

You want to avoid saying you have zero experience, but you figured applying to this job would be fun. The interviewer does not want an employee who jokes around in a formal interview and does not seem sincere. The interviewer is looking for a professional person who preferably has the experience. Still, their company may be willing to train you if the interviewer feels you are serious about the position.

"I have over five years of experience in construction. I started my career as a plumbing apprentice but soon realized I wanted to switch to installing tiles to use my creative side. I have been working as a tile installer for a little under five years and have completed 20 small and large tile jobs."
