INTERVIEW QUESTION....What did you like most about your last job?

Question

What if you never had a job how can you answer this and still seem like the best candidate?

Answer 1

Be honest. Try this (in your own words): "This would be my first job, and one of the things I am looking forward to is______"

Or, "This would be my first "job" (use quote fingers, maybe) but I've been working since_____ I get a kick out of the fact that when I _______ (think of an everyday job) it feels really good to ________ (why you like doing that job)."

Answer 2

Well, assuming that the job does not require that you have had previous work experience, if they were to ask you that, you could say something like, "Although I have not had formal employment, I have done _______, which in many ways was like having a full time job - my participation was valued, I was depended upon and I made a significant contribution. My favorite thing about it was being a part of a team and working for a common goal."

And you could fill in the blank with something you had previously done - like cheerleading, or band or some sort of organized activity. I also think talking about team participation is a definite trait that employers look for - so adding in something about that would be good.

Good luck!

Answer 3

If you never had a job before, the probably know that from your resume or your application, so won't ask the question. If the do, just say this will be your first job, but what you liked most about school was ..........
