If you have no work experience how do you answer questions about previous jobs?

Answer

Interviewers will see that you haven't had any previous employment, so probably won't ask you. If you do need to answer though, talk not necessarily about employment, but different tasks or responsibilities you've taken on and experience you've had in the field you're applying for. They're looking for a responsible person who knows what they're doing. Give them an answer that reflects that.
