In search of work, this question comes alive,

Why this job? A query they propose,

A challenge faced, in roles that do contrive.

A daily tale unfolds, as daylight glows,

Duties and tasks, a script that I compose,

In search of work, this question comes alive.

Experience, a tapestry that shows,

Qualities define, as each trait grows,

A challenge faced, in roles that do contrive.

Tell me about yourself, the spotlight throws,

Origins and ambitions, life's grand prose,

In search of work, this question comes alive.

Hearing of the position, how it arose,

Five years hence, where my journey goes,

A challenge faced, in roles that do contrive.

What makes a coworker good, one who knows,

Setbacks navigated, as the river flows,

In search of work, this question comes alive,

A challenge faced, in roles that do contrive.
