It is a fucking stupid question. I’m supposed to invent some horse shit about why this is an awesome company that I specifically chose, and simply being truthful “you’re recruiting and I need a job” isn’t acceptable.
I just turn it around. “I have blah blah skills and interests. It looks like you need blah and offer blah opportunity.” It’s easy for me, though, because I have a specialty certification.
Job interview trainers be like:
You’re supposed to do a throughout research on the company, and write a nice little story how much you’re a fan of the company, and how much you want to work there, and you spent all your life on training to be able to work at a company like that.
Why did you choose our company?
Bitch! I’m broke!
Bold of you to assume they don’t ghost us before it gets this far
“Claud tell me why I should by excited to join this company”
Because I need money
Yeah, what are you good at?
I bring 12 years of experience with system x and system y. I’m an engineer but I enjoy selling customers solutions, not just telling them what they need to buy.
