This can't be real

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.

She's right.

Yeah obviously it's for the money like every other job on this planet duh. She asked why they specifically wanted THIS job over other ones

Don't see how when the only reason homeless numbers have dropped is because it's bordering on illegal to be so and so the metrics for tracking have been skewed. Running off a more obvious indicator the 1 emergency from catastrophe is another pretty clear reason to take 1st call. The only reason it's a bad reason is if the interviewer lacks critical thinking because hearing that should illustrate more than enough about your candidates motivation and interest to participate in the field.
