Here's how you can impressively respond to the question "Why do you want to work for our company.

I'm really keen on joining your team because I've done my homework, and I'm seriously impressed with what I've found about your company. Your knack for innovation and the positive impact you have in [industry/community] really stand out. Your values, like [specific value], are totally in line with what I believe in—[related value]. With my experience in [relevant experience], I'm eager to jump in and help [specific contribution or goal]. And what excites me most is the chance to grow with you guys. Learning is my jam, and I see tons of opportunities here for that.

En tant qu’employeur, j’ai constaté que c’était inutile et même nuisible que le demandeur connaisse le commerce, surtout s’il avait été client. La personne arrivait avec une idée préconçue et éprouvait des difficultés à s’adapter à l’envers du décor. Comme demandeur d’emploi, je me suis présentée à une entrevue sans recherche sur l’entreprise. On m’a interrogée sur mes emplois antérieurs et sur mes valeurs. Parler de son engagement, démontrer son sérieux et son intérêt pour le travail, manifester son ouverture d’esprit pour la nouveauté est de loin plus important qu’une connaissance approfondie de l’entreprise. Cette connaissance viendra avec l’emploi. À l’entrevue, j’ai promis de rester toute la période prévue. Ils m’ont engagée !

The most important thing about wanting to work for a company is your interest. Before you even apply for a job, you should first ask yourself what your interest is in the field, then you can think about what your interest is in the company. If you ask yourself the above questions, you'll know if you have genuine interest in the company. During the interview, your interest will be obvious even without you saying anything about it. Your employer can easily detect your interest, and know if it is genuine, and also align with the company's interest. When your interest is defined, the next thing is to make research on the company's interests, where they are heading to and where they started from. This'll give you the answers to the question.

By articulating why you want to work for the company in a well-researched, thoughtful, and specific manner, you demonstrate to the interviewer that you are not only qualified for the position but also genuinely interested in being a part of their team. This approach will help you stand out as a candidate who is not just looking for any job but is truly passionate about contributing to their success.

Answer honestly and truthfully and keep it as simple and short as possible. For example: "I have been observing the industry for years and have been informed about the most interesting players. My research has shown that my professional interests are a good match for the culture and development opportunities". Avoid MeeToo and favour straight answers. Don't tell long stories.

Prepare your answer before you go to your interview, research the company you are interviewing for and find out their interest and direction they are going in. Practice your answer until it sounds natural, and can present it in a professional manner.

Inject humor and showcase your deep understanding of the brand in your response to stand out as a candidate. Here's a snippet of the response I provided when expressing interest in working for a video game company: Imagine if PR were a game; I’d be your ultimate cheat code, seamlessly navigating through the media landscape like a stealthy assassin in Assassin’s Creed. With a blend of strategic thinking worthy of a Civilization victory and communication skills sharper than Geralt’s silver sword, hiring me as your PR practitioner means leveling up your team to boss battle status.

The top reason is always money. The only person(s) vested in a company's success is the people who own the company. Anyone working for a company is there because of the pay and working hours. A true professional does their work, takes their pay, and leaves on time. Fanatics, lunatics, and fools sit around thinking about the company and work when they're off the clock. Any other response is just brown-nosing.

When I first started entering the job market, I thought this question was just a moment to flatter the company. Over time, I realized that preparing for an interview is crucial, and this exercise helps determine if you are deeply personally and professionally compatible with the work environment. Of course, it’s essential to research the company, as this will demonstrate your interest. But beyond that, it’s key to know who you’re addressing. Who are the decision-makers? What do they follow on LinkedIn? What are their interests, values, and leadership styles? This will help you prepare a genuinely impactful response. Plus, you'll gauge your enthusiasm for working there. After all, an interview is also about seeing if you want the job.

I will give you 2 tips that have really helped me: 1. Be patient and open-minded: You know, adjusting to a new culture takes time, and that's okay! Don't stress if you don't fit in right away. Keep an open mind, and remember that growth is a process. 2. Celebrate successes and learn from failures: Yay, you! Celebrate your wins, no matter how small they may seem! And when things don't go as planned, don't beat yourself up over it. Instead, learn from your mistakes and use them as an opportunity to grow and improve. Remember, every experience is a chance to learn and get better!

Est-ce que j'envisagerais de voyager sans sortir de chez-moi ? Est-ce que je finirais un marathon sans poser un pied devant l’autre ? En entreprise, tout bouge. Comme employée, j’ai tout à gagner de participer au processus, car le développement me sera aussi profitable qu’à l’entreprise. J’apprends pour connaître toutes les facettes de mon travail. J’apprends pour être la meilleure. Donc, en sautant sur les opportunités, mon employeur m’apprécie et je suis plus en mesure de résoudre des problèmes complexes et d’aider les autres. On ne devrait pas être avare de notre savoir et de nos habiletés de peur que la réussite ne rayonne que sur l’entreprise. On gagne en estime personnelle et ça, c’est comme recevoir un trophée tous les jours.

L’enthousiasme est une qualité essentielle. C’est avec enthousiasme que j’accueille les changements dans l’entreprise, que j’apprends de nouvelles tâches ou que je lance mon propre business. C’est bien sûr avec enthousiasme que je fais une demande d’emploi. L’entreprise a quelque chose qui me motive, qui me plaît ? Ou c’est le travail en lui-même qui est attirant ? Voilà les idées qui m’aident à garder ma concentration. Essayer de manœuvrer pour prouver un engouement ou flatter l’employeur sont des stratégies qui peuvent fonctionner, mais pour cela, il faut être un excellent comédien. Un enthousiasme authentique ne faiblira pas devant le stress de l’entrevue.

I'd like to share an insight into how I have thrived as a radio host and everything in between. I was a radio producer and content creator who dwelled on various topics in scriptwriting. Stories always abound and there are one million and one ways to creatively write your scripts. The actual broadcast of giving life to your script was and still is the best part for me. With all enthusiasm and some dotting of 'i's and crossing of 't's, the wildest fiction comes to life in the mind of your listener.

It's not a surprise that many are willing to hire and even train you if there's corresponding enthusiasm along with your skill. Being good is one, enthusiasm is another
