Interview questions

[cruelpupet]

I will be applying for a Network Security position. I have been informed that 1 question will be "Why do you want to go into network securtiy"

I doubt saying Im a voyer and like looking into peoples habits and emails will go over well.

any suggestions on responses other then "Its a continuious challenge"

Well before asking us, why not tell us why you want the job?

If it is purely $$$ then yeah, we'll have to work on the answer. ;)

Be sure to include the words, "challenging, you love challenges, you enjoy working with computers as well as furthering your skills and knowledge into the computer field to advance my work abilities for the job."

even more effective if you can tie in experience from your present position along with the answer.

ie: "i was working on x project and we ran into this issue with authentication from an outside server. as i gained an understanding of the issues we were dealing with, i realized that this would be an interesting area to work in full-time".....or some other such bull****

I believe your missing the point of the question. Its not why would you do well in this position....its why do you want it

well say what you said, "it is a continious challenge", and i enjoy being challenged. i like to move around inside of a company, if i can, so i can learn all the aspects of the business and become a greater asset.
