Problem

Why are you looking for a new position? Please focus on your professional reasons for making a change, what you have learned from your current or most recent role, and why an Account Executive opportunity with Chefs' Warehouse is a logical next step. This question helps assess your motivation, professionalism, self-awareness, and likelihood of becoming engaged in the role. A strong response is concise, positive, and specific, while acknowledging your own goals without criticizing a former employer or implying that you are leaving solely to escape a problem.
