When it’s appropriate, change is important. For example, when I heard about a new payroll system at a conference last year, I did a little investigating, found out it was better than what we were using, and recommended my employer move over to it. This interviewee has shown that he doesn’t shy away from change and even provides a good example of how he initiated it at his current job. He has also shown that he doesn’t jump into change just for the sake of doing something different; instead, he does his homework first.
Never Say: “Change is great. Without it I get bored.” The interviewer might wonder if the candidate’s love of change includes finding a new job every other year.
