Application Form - question.?

Question

I have to say why I am leaving my current job on application form.

Answer 2

you are looking for a new challenge and feel that your current trust can no longer fulfill the challenges of the job.

i put this down and got the job. ive been in nursing 20 years.

but to be honest your own reasons are sufficient, honest and understandable

Answer 3

just say what you've told us. you liked your old job however the the area doesnt suit you.  

you could also add you feel as if you've done all you can in your old job, theres not much left to experience there so your ready for a new job with different challenges etc

Write "See attached sheet" and say exactly what you have said right here! Seriously! Nobody will fault you for that, you are not burning any bridges, and I'm positive you could get some good references.
