ok this is a very common question during interviews but I'm interested to know how you will (seriously) answer it... here goes.."Why are you looking for a new opportunity outside your company?"

Is your name supposed to allude to the smell of your question? The answer to this Q will be unique to every single person and depend on level, personal background, previous experiences, future aspirations, personality, interests, current company, current job, job applied for, company being applied to, current market conditions, etc.Seriously, can new threads not be submitted for approval of relevance/interest or something before getting uploaded?

somebody's grumpy on a friday.. cheer up mate.. it's nearly weekend... that's the beauty of a forum.. it epitomizes democracy.. however, i agree with your view that it all depends on things.. ahh very typical consultant answers.. (as i sip my wine)...from a professional standpoint, i'd say "i am leaving my company because i do believe that my career will reach new heights if i join you"... sounds BS? well aren't most consultant's answers are? (now on to my wine...)
