QUESTION 1 OF 32

Why did you decide to pursue a career as a Veterinarian?

The interviewer wants to understand why you initially decided to get into the Veterinary field. They want to hear you speak with passion about your career and about animal care.

Think about what made you choose to work toward a career in Veterinary care. Talk about why you are interested in animals and why you feel that this particular career is a good fit for you.

"When I was younger, I worked on my family farm every summer, and I really enjoyed working with animals and getting a chance to learn about each animal family. One summer, we had a sheep that was in labor, and there was some difficulty. Fortunately, a farm vet came out and assisted. I was amazed by the experience and knew from that day on I wanted to be a Veterinarian. I do enjoy working with family pets more than farm animals because I see them more often and get to know the owners."
