SAMPLE ANSWERS Sample Answer 1 I have always enjoyed working with computers so it was an easy decision to major in computer science at California University with a plan to enter the IT field. In school I excelled in my computer-related classes and during my college years I became particularly interested in software development especially software that would help consumers. That s why I applied for and completed a one-year internship with Lotadoe Industries. At Lotadoe I learned how to formulate new ideas for software and how to communicate those ideas effectively to the rest of the development team. I am a very focused person and I tend to be product-oriented. At Lotadoe I made sure that whatever projects I worked on I saw to completion. For instance I worked with a team that was developing a new version of a piece of popular software called Rototype. I asked to be part of every step of software development and at the end of the project I was given the responsibility of getting final technical approval. I made sure that I followed through with the right departments keeping my team informed of the progress. This is the type of work I enjoy and that s why I applied for a position with your company.
