An interviewer will ask this question to assess their level of risk in taking you on as an employee. They want to know if you left your previous job for a good reason or if you left on good terms and what your level of commitment is to your work.

Although this seems like a simple question, it can easily become tricky. Don't mention salary as a factor at this point. If you're currently employed, your response can focus on developing and expanding your career and yourself. If your current employer is downsizing, remain positive and brief. Under no circumstance should you discuss any drama or negativity; always remain positive.
