D) If you respond to this question by indicating the job that you are applying for, you will sound insincere, especially if it is an entry-level position. However, don't share information that would make you less desirable (like wanting to get experience so you can start your own business). Your description should identify the attributes that demonstrate your work ethic and interpersonal skills.
