| Oct 25, 2018 at 10:55 | comment | added | pmf | They're not asking why you came here, they're asking what the chances are that you'll go back again (causing them to having to retrain someone else again). | |
| Dec 18, 2016 at 15:11 | comment | added | Gray Sheep | @DavidHammen Thank you very much! The real answer for that, that on the German job market, I don't really have access to really exciting jobs. There are, but I can't win the race with the native Germans for them. I have access to better paying jobs (as in my home country). Thus, I can't answer this question while I say the truth. Furthermore, I don't have any plan to go back, if I would do this, I would do only if my situation here would be hopeless. But I think saying this to them clearly also wouldn't sound very well. | |

| Jun 19, 2016 at 17:33 | comment | added | David Hammen | The real question isn't why you moved to Germany. It's why do you want to move back for what is almost certainly a job that pays considerable lower and less exciting than what you had in Germany. This is what you need to be prepared to answer. | |

| Jun 19, 2016 at 13:39 | comment | added | Brandin | Don't overthink this question. Imagine a stranger meets you and asks "so what made you move to X?" They're just trying to get to know you. Imagine how you would answer if you want to make a positive impression, but don't imagine too hard. | |
