Why Do You Want To Work Here? Learn How To Answer This Job Interview Question by Deniz Sasal

[ProfessorHeatherAustin]

Hey guys! Job interviews can be tough. What advice would you give someone that has a job interview coming up? I'd love to know your thoughts and ideas.

[bingbiribingbingbingg]

"Be yourself"

I don't even know myself

[torydzuricsko]

At my interview I answered this with, "It's 2 minutes from the bar and 5 minutes from my house!" and you know what? I got the job! The interviewer liked my happy-go-lucky funny attitude... Until a few months later when she found out I wasn't joking.

[healthyvoicetips]

My advice would be: be yourself, don't pretend to be someone else. Not sure if this is the best advice but I prefer genuine people.

[marjeankinzeantonio]

Just wanna come back to this amazing video and I would like to express my gratitude for giving this tips and guess what. I got hired last week and will start this coming monday. I highly recommended this video for job seekers like me. Thank you so much!!! More love and power to you. God bless you 💖💖💖

[mtello]

Thank you so much! You were straight to the point and everything was so clear! This video really helped me and I will be recording my interview today!!

[CalmMello]

Another video packed with wisdom! Thank you again for providing incredibly effective content made simple. Another idea is to show that you’re committed for the long term with a vision response that projects what you want to specifically execute for the company and how that concept aligns with the company’s mission and culture. You’re truly the best Heather, much appreciated again!

[maddiekrulicki]

Be you. If they don't hire you then it's their loss. Be confident with what your applying for and your strengths.

[theotterclub]

Loved learning about how to answer the common interview question "why do you want to work for this company." One of my favorite tips is to research the companies LinkedIn page.

[piainked]

[deebaahmed]

Well, This is a company with a big name and a long reputation of producing quality & safe products. I really like what I see & I would love to be a part of it. I look forward to the training, I think there are many opportunities for me, This is a job I will really enjoy!

[rivchardaust]

These are great tips. I really like the first tip where I show how I ‘am the solution’ to their needs. Thanks so much!!

[shinebabyshine.]

Excellent tips! You're one of the best job/interview channels out there <3

[VideoCashflow]

Great advice. Always found the best tactic was to find out about the company, their products/services, financial results etc. beforehand. Get to interview early and talk with the receptionists about the company. Surprising how much you can find out about the company.

[bandfamtv]

I have an interview for Assistant store manager at aldi on Monday. Binging tons of videos to help me! I will use this strategy

[brandoncazares]

Hey Heather thanks a lot for this video!!! It really helped me with my interviews.

[SocialMediaLove]

Yes, evaluate the intentions are so key...in any interactions with humans...at the business level too. Thanks Heather! :-)

[CareerMakeoverAcademy]

Great topic and great info. So many people don't think about how their values align with the company that they're applying for. It's imperative if you REALLY are interested in the company. Research is KEEEEY!
