Frequently Asked Interview Question 2

Why Should We Hire You?

The following are some points to consider when answering this question:

1. Make a short list of all your advantages and create a paragraph that would point out the positive aspects that you would bring to the new job position.

2. One of the points that you can raise is the similarity of the job profile you are aiming for at the company to the job profile you enjoyed in your previous job.

3. You can also draw the interviewer’s attention to your key skills and strengths, for example, excellent communication skills, multitasking etc.

4. In addition, your professional ambitions should be made clear ie the motivation and dedication that you have for the profession and the opening position.

5. Make sure that your answers do not relate too much about yourself or that they come across as conceited.

6. Your body language when you answer the question is important too. For example, your body language should make it clear that you have thought it over and given a carefully worded answer, instead of coming up with a made up answer.
