Hi guys, perhaps I'm not smart enough to answer this question during the job interview "Why don't you apply the job in the related field that you've studied instead of an irrelevant field? "
Anyone can help me? Greatly appreciated!

maybe u can tell them that you want to get more experience so u can open more opportunities in the future by having more than just the one experience so with more experience u can do more than just the one thing.....something along those lines

Well, I would say that depends on the job that you are applying for and the field that you studied. So if you could provide that piece of information it would be easier to get to an answer.
For now an example... one can say that during the time studying one learned more about oneself and thinks that one would be better with let's say... dealing with people. Or just the other way around, that one is much better with fixing... let's say computer stuff than teaching kids, but that during that time studying in the field you also learned how to deal with difficult people, stress management... whatever comes to mind.
So really it depends on what you studied and the job you want to go for.

If they are asking you that, it makes me think that maybe you aren't qualified for these jobs that are not in the field in which you've studied. If so, no answer to that question is going to suffice.
Otherwise, if you are qualified, WHY ARE YOU APPLYING? How about figuring that out and telling them? Sorry for the sarcasm, but it seems simple enough. Tell them exactly why you are interested in working for their company and how your career goals can be fulfilled working there.

Well, think about it - why DON'T you. It's a fair question, and your answer depends on, well, why you don't. If you realized after you completed your schooling and got a better look at the field that you really didn't want to spend your working life doing that kind of job, say so.

once I went for my utilising attempt, I imagined i assumed there grew to become into no way i grew to become into going to bypass my attempt, yet i could placed all of it the way down to adventure, so i could understand what to assume the subsequent time. you would be able to desire to apply this on your interview, think of which you're no longer likely to get the job, yet which you will answer it the suited you may so as which you would be able to benefit interview adventure. Dont ignore, in case you dont get the job, you may telephone them decrease back and ask for comments. See the place you're going incorrect and perfect. good success em x

just tell them that in the course of learning one field for youself you discovered the field you are applying for through a close personal relationship with a master of said field , like you recieved a transferrance of thought . if the employers dont believe in natural , and not always , learned , experience than they are probably too snotty to work for anyways .

"I intended to go into field X, but over time I have found I prefer field Y and hope to return to university to pursue a degree in Y."
