Hi,

I am Karthik. After constantly attending interviews all over, I am still failing to give an appropriate answer to the question "WHY YOU LEFT YOUR LAST ORGANISATION." Though my answers are different every time, I am still unable to impress the interviewer. I am really helpless; I really don't know what I should say at that time because the real reason was work overload and a huge problem created by my immediate boss, which I can't tell the interviewer.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME. I am desperate to get a job. PLZ HELP :( :( :(

Dear Karthick,

You have two reasons: one is your immediate boss, and the second one is workload. When talking about your workload, never put anyone down as we may meet them at any stage.

Thank you, Bhanu, for your input.

If the interviewer asks, "Are you afraid of workload or is the same situation present here as well?" then how should I tackle it? Would the interviewer think I am running away from my responsibilities? Or should I go for it and answer the interviewer, "I was unable to handle much workload"?

Dear Karthik,

During the interview, you can mention that there was limited opportunity for learning in your project, which prompted you to seek new challenges for your career growth by leaving your previous company.

Regarding workload, you can explain that there were timing issues that affected your ability to work late hours consistently. For example, you may prefer not to work late hours as a regular practice.

Make sure to convey these points clearly and professionally during your interview.

Best regards,
[Your Name]

Hi Karthik, One thing u can quote is of distance. You can say that your earlier company was very far and hence you had difficult time in travelling.

The answer can be, "since I learned many things from the old company and I want to test it with another company for its effectiveness. There are experts in my previous company, and I was in their shadow, unable to utilize my potentials. Hence, the change.
