"Which kind of job would you prefer: a job that is uninteresting, but has a high salary, or a job you really enjoy with a moderate salary?"
This is a sort of choosing question. I liked a half of each, so my answer is: a high salary and a job I really enjoy.

However, you may say "Of course every one wants the same you do. But the question asks you to choose one of them. What is your answer in this case?"

If I have to choose only one between them my answer is it depends on my situation when the question was raised. If at that time I needed money I would accept the first one. If I did not need money much I would take the second one.
