Why do you want to work in...
I am trying to answer the question of "why do you want to work in the service industry?", which is a question from my employer(interviewer?). Can anyone can help me point out any errors or some disadvantages? If you have any opinion on this question, please let me know. Thanks a lot.
Here is my answer (not satisfying to me ~~LOL)
To begin with, I love meeting people and dealing with them. I really enjoy the interacting with people. Secondly , I also possess good interpersonal communication skills, which would prove helpful in this position. Thirdly , In addition, I am always eager to help people resolve any issues they may have encountered. Doing so which is a huge inspires and satisfies to me.
Writing tip: please pay attention to punctuation. In many cases, you got it wrong. It seems like a minor point, but to an employer it looks careless.
Another tip is to use verbs in place of nouns, and active verbs in place of static verbs (eg. I worked as a receptionist sounds better than I was a receptionist). It makes you sound more intersting and more like a go-getter.
I've replaced some phrases with a more businesslike phrase.
Also, I agree with Daniel's comment about avoiding "firstly, secondly, thirdly". In a longer essay they work fine to give some structure, but in such a short answer it looks like you are "ticking boxes", or that you don't know how to put sentences together. A minor point again, but it would make your employer think differently of you.
Good luck in your application!
