Sample Answer
When we like our job, nothing feels like a burden and we enjoy every bit of life. I have met A PLETHORA OF people who chose the job in which they were passionate about. However, I am going to talk about a person who has chosen a career in the medical field. He is my neighbor KB. He is a dermatologist. He chose this career because of his mother. He told me that his mother had skin issues due to sensitive skin. As a kid, he often saw her mother using various creams and getting disappointed with her skin.
Moreover, his mother used to take a lot of medicines but could not get rid of skin problems. He wanted to make her mother happy. Therefore, one day, he tried to find a solution on the internet. It created his interest in the medical field. He found the INS AND OUTS of the skin types when he was just a PRE-TEEN. He continued reading about this stuff on the internet. Since he had ELEPHANT’S MEMORY, it was easier for him to learn new things.
His ENTHUSIASM also helped him in CRACKING the medical entrance exam. Now, he is a RENOWNED dermatologist. He not only helped his mother diagnose her issues but also assisted many patients in understanding their problems. Instead of prescribing plenty of medicines, he always tries to find alternative dieting options to MITIGATE skin issues. He believes we can heal our skin by making changes in our daily routine.
Unless the issue is very serious, he recommends trying a new routine for certain days. His suggestion almost always works. Apart from this, he shares these tips on Instagram as well and has earned more than 100k followers. I feel proud to know such a person who genuinely cares about his patients. I hope I also become passionate about my career and become well- known in my field.
