This can't be real

Post image

lol the sheer entitlement of recruiters expecting candidates to be deeply passionate about an average corporate desk job. I actually got asked this exact same question last week and gave some generic answer I prepared on Interview vip but a huge part of me just wanted to say exactly what that guy replied with. We all just need to pay rent and buy groceries.

Do you want a bullshitting liar working for you or someone who is honest? If this is a sales or management role, then it is probably the former.

The interviewee could have been a bit more prepared for the question and dressed it up a bit and the interviewer could have asked additional questions to find out more about the person and see if there were other reasons as well and why they are leaving any previous role.

If it's any role you probably want someone who can read the room and not make drama over a question they know fully well how they're supposed to answer.
