Here is my draft to answer for that question.
“ Job scope, good working environment and the chance to learn new things, were what I seek most in this career. Last year, I was offered a position as a Consultant and on paper I really liked that job. I never planned to leave while I worked with this company. Unfortunately,the company had some financial problems and they failed to pay salaries for a couple of months. For this reason I decide to look for another job and finally I got my current position as an Auditor.
But again, I didn’t get what was offered at my interview. I have no resources to do the job, no internet access, no notebook, and do not have a chance to improve myself on the technical side. I have good technical background and suddenly I have to do the things that do not relate to my job.
By contrast, your company has plenty of technical expertise, and offers the working environment that I have been seeking. I would appreciate the chance to apply my own technical training in helping with research and development within the company.”
How about that? And then before I leave from the interview session, can I say this
“I appreciate the time you took in discussing this opportunity with me. I am very interested in working for you and look forward to hearing from you further. Thank you for the interview.”
Is it the best way to end up the interview session? Or any better idea so I can get a new job and start a new life.
Your advice and comment would be very much appreciated.
Thanks and best regards, |
Sorry you're having a difficult time.
Your parting statement is fine.
I think you need to be very clear what it is that you can offer a company, and very clear about what it is you want to do. If your interest is in research and development, then a job as an auditor is not really suitable since it is presumably primarily using an existing process.
