  1. 1

    I recently went through a prescreening for a job where the hiring team asked me, "What's important to you, and what brings you to work every day?" Honestly, I was caught off guard and just blanked, replying with, "I don't know honestly." It felt like such a strange question, and I couldn't help but think that job interviews are more like media training than anything else. If I were to answer truthfully, I'd say it's to pay the bills, but I know that's not the kind of response they want to hear. It's frustrating because I feel like everyone is in the same boat—working to make ends meet. I really need to work on my interview skills and prepare better for these kinds of questions in the future.
