Model Answer:

Since the days of my college studies, I had always been dreaming of doing web designing job and I consider the occupation of a web designer to be the perfect job for me.

I chose to pursue my career as web designer for various reasons. First of all, creativity is in my roots that I could not resist myself from joining a job which required artistic skills. Secondly, I am extremely interested in designing web pages, brochures, magazines and many other things in my day to day life.

Overcoming difficulties and challenges involve fun and this is the reason why this job interests me a lot.

Apart from this, you should be able to communicate well with the clients for gathering all the requirements and with colleagues too, for collaborative team work. Programming is actually the basic skill required for this job along with the good knowledge of image editing software such as Adobe Photoshop.
