Why it’s wrong:
Cross the fine line from confident to egotistical and you cross your name off the callback crew.
Right answers:
• Right answer
“I don’t know if there is such a thing an ‘ideal job’ because different people add unique
talents to each position. So anyone who tries hard enough and works long enough can make a
position into a meaningful creative outlet.”

Why it’s right:
This honest approach works well because you seem positive and enthusiastic.
• Right answer
“I chose to pursue a career in the nonprofit sector because I wanted to make a difference in
society. So any position that allows me to help even one person will make me feel like I have
made a positive impact and fulfill my professional needs.”

Why it’s right:
Interviewers like answers that do not revolve around the almighty dollar but instead focus on
meaning and personal fulfillment form job duties.

• Right answer
“The perfect job would allow me to put my creative and innovative talents to work in a larger
capacity. I want to be able to share my individual perspectives with everyone who views our
billboards.”

Why it’s right:
While this artist wants to make a name for himself the interviewer knows that he will also be
improving the company’s designs as well.
