I went for an interview last week. While filling the form there was one question that I left blank "reason for leaving", I did not know what to write. When I was called to be interviewed, one of the interviewer asked me the same question again.
Interviewer (1) : What is your reason for leaving your current organization?
Me : When I joined my current organization, I set a goal for me to achieve in two years time. My
goal was and still is to hold a management and administrative post after two years. Now it
has been two years and I am still at the beginning.
Interviewer (2) : (Looking at me) So, in simpler term, the reason for you to leave your organization is
because you are not getting what you want.
Me : (Without hesitation) Yes, I am leaving because I am not getting what I want.
The interview continued for another 30 minutes. I am not regretting my response for the question, and I don't know if my response will cause me the opportunity to venture out. But finally now I know what to write if the question popped out again. "I am leaving because I am not getting what I want".
