hi everyone Don Georgevich here
author of the complete interview answer
guide and today I'm going to answer the
question why should I hire you exactly
the way I do in my book the complete
interview answer guide now this is often
the last question you will be asked in
an interview prepare for it I mean this
is your chance to restate the skills you
possess that are most relevant to the
position and to summarize your other
qualities that make you the perfect
person for the job I want you to outline
your answer before you go in and so that
you can answer it clearly concisely and
with confidence your answer should be
short to the point it should reflect
your profession your background as it
relates to your current needs and the
problems of the position review the
review the job description and tell them
how you or the right person for the job
by matching up your skill set with each
bullet point for the job description in
formulating your answer be sure to
address these areas number one determine
their goals for the position this should
come up during your research into the
company and the position if possible
talk to others who work for the company
if you're unclear on this point included
in the questions you asked the
interviewer and be prepared to
incorporate it into your answer also
show them that you have the skills
needed for the job based on the goals
you've identified in step 1 determine
how your skills and experience support
these goals and if necessary you know
just rip up refer back to your list of
skills thirdly articulate shared values
again this should come up in your
research look at the company's mission
statement and regular business practices
explain why these are in line with your
own values and goals fourth state your
interest in the position be enthusiastic
about the opportunity to work for this
company and within a certain team be
sure that the interviewer is clear about
the fact that
you want this job I mean the most
important aspect of doing this exercise
is to make you comfortable and
identifying and articulating the skills
you possess even with the prepared
answer it's important to be flexible
within the script itself you may need to
modify the specifics based on the
situation now if an important issue
comes up during the interview
be prepared to adapt your answer
accordingly I mean for instance if the
interviewer stresses the need for a
certain skill you will want to address
that even if it was not one of the
skills that you included on your resume
now let's let's go let's give a perfect
answer to how we would answer this
question I have the qualifications you
were looking for briefly list them I'm a
team player
I take direction and I have the desire
to be successful there you go
answer that question in 10 seconds and
you can do the same let's do it again
this is one of my favorite answers three
reasons I meet deadlines I deliver what
I promised and as a result I've always
made my managers look good
