Discuss. Haha.
I'm trying to put together notes on this question so that I don't sound like an idiot during the interview. What can you say here? Here are some of the things going through my mind, and the response I envision the interviewer coming back with.
"I like to work with my hands". So why not be a surgeon??
"I like to help people". So like I said...why not medicine?
"I like working in the smaller setting of dentistry". So why not work in a small office instead of a hospital?
"I want to have more time for my family". So, you're saying you're not willing to work as hard as a doctor?
"I want to potentially be my own boss one day and run a small business". I'm not sure what they'd say to this one...
So yeah, how do you avoid being backed into a corner here?
