In fact, this question is far from simple and while it seems like they’re asking you for just one straightforward bit of information, they are actually asking you for two very complex answers…and therein that complexity lies the stumbling block. I mean, come on, bottom line is you need a job…they have a job they need filled…it’s basic math, right?!Īctually, it’s not, and like any and all questions an interviewer is asking you, it’s not as simple as it might seem. Get our "Why Do You Want To Work Here Cheat Sheet" that gives you DO's & DON'TS and word-for-word sample answers that you can use in your next interview.Īnd it’s tempting to come at that question, hot on the heels of a flawless interview (full of right answers and quick responses), and toss in a half-assed sarcastic response meant to make the interviewer laugh and see you as a down-to-earth, “relatable”, totally “hireable” person…įor many people that question is the almost inevitable “So, why do you want to work here?” (Can also often be rephrased as “Why do you want to work for us?”)
