Good question. I'd pick something in your education or recent work history that stands out or looks unusual, such as switching from English Lit in college to Corporate Finance in Grad School. Then explain your thought process, such as "I wasn't planning on becoming an English Lit major but wanted to be able to explain financial analytical results in language that everybody could understand."

We shouldn’t focus on the job as priority, the structure is just to keep you busy all days just to pay bills and to live on credits.

You can’t possibly work into car dealership and paid for the car of your choice, you must get it on credit thereby paying monthly as bill.

That’s the structure of the western hemisphere You keep living on credit, doesn’t it concerning ?? If it concerns you then you should take a step to put an end to it, the question remains, How ? And I will answer you

Supervisor at Chicago Bridge Iron

I’ve had to drop down several positions and work my way back up. I have no problem doing this because I’m in pretty good shape but I’ve seen an older and out of shape supervisor struggle and eventually fail to meet the standards of a company when he was dropped down to a foreman.

Yes, I have. The people made the tough days easier, but long-term, staying just for them held me back. It’s important to balance good relationships with personal growth.
