Answer:

I do not believe that my career history is an accurate reflection of my character or abilities. Stability is important to me and I am anxious to work long term for one company. Although my CV shows that I have worked for a five different companies over a short period of time, the reason for this was that I had a elderly and frail relative to look after during this period.
Say that previous job roles failed to challenge you.
State that you current desire is to find long term employment and then give a reason for this i.e. your recently bought a house, just got married or are in a new committed long term relationship etc.
Mention and highlight any jobs you have held for long periods.
Point out the duties in the job you are applying for and state that these are the challenges you have been looking for.
