You need to answer in such a way that you show off some of your good points. Remember, they are looking for the best person for the job. And of course, it depends on what the job is.
Say something like: I enjoy a challenging job that makes me think. I'm looking for a job that will take me outside and work with nature. I enjoy working with people and this is a job that will help me do that.
I'm looking for a job that involves helping people meet their full potential. I enjoy a job that is very physical and lets me use all my skills and energy. And I think this job will let me do that.
Well, this helps me a lot in discovering my talents if I am capable to do such This position would would enable me to untalise (or make the best of) my existing skills in an environment which appeals to me. (make the words your own, but have this sentiment) "I Don't have anyother option" that why . No, always be positive and never say anything negative.
Even if there is something make it into something good. For example, although my IT skills are adequate I would like the opportunity of improving on them and possibly undertaking further training which would not only be beneficial to me, but to your organisation should my application be successful. Depends if you are looking to advance your life through career improvement then say so I mean most people look for a job to improve there quality of life or there family's you can also say you are looking for steady imployment with fair wages and safe working conditions I mean these are just ideas it really depends what you are applying for I hope this was helpful.
The best way to answer this question is to RESEARCH the company first. Yep, whether you are applying at McDonald's or applying at a Fortune 500 Company. Do a search online.
Look at their website. Find out who they are, what they do and why you'd want to work there. The WORST thing you can do is showing up at an interview knowing nothing about the company!
Once you know about the company you can answer this question more easily (for example: "I've read about how this company's growth is on the rise and also how involved it is in the local community.") Do NOT make the first answer all about you. The employer does not care if you want to advance your career, make more money or get better benefits. In this portion of the interview and with asking this question, they want to know what YOU are going to do for THEM.
After you tell them why you're a good fit for them, THEN you can talk about the company being close to your home or allowing you the time to see your kids or finish school, etc. I am interested in this job because I hope to apply my experience in a positive manner, which will undoubtedly prove my competence and enhance my abilities. I see it as an opportunity to hone my skills and develop them for future applications. This is a question that only you can answer in relation to the specific job for which you are applying and what you have to offer the employer in this position.
For example, I'm applying for a simple service position at a fast food establishment: This position suits my natural ability to interact with people and I can bring four years of customer service experience to this job. I have been complimented on my manner and thanked by customers often in my previous positions, which gives me personal satisfaction.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
