Why Are You a Good Fit for this Role - How to Answer

Jeff Su ยท Beginner ยท๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ AI Safety & Ethics ยท5y ago
๐ŸŽฏ My free Job Search Toolkit: https://academy.jeffsu.org/job-search-toolkit?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=013 My Premium Resume Package: https://jeffsu.gumroad.com/l/premium-resume-package Show the interviewer that you are a good fit for the position. The โ€œWhy are you a good fit for this roleโ€ interview question has many variations such as โ€œWhy should we hire you?โ€ and โ€œWhy are you a good candidate?โ€ But theyโ€™re all really just trying to figure out (1) What experiences or skills you have that would be applicable for the new position, (2) What you are trying to get out of it, and (3) What special characteristic you have that others do not. If you are able to provide strong examples and communicate your unique proposition clearly, the interviewers will make their own mental connections between your background and the open role, and start convincing themselves that they indeed should hire you since your experiences clearly make you a good fit (or even the best fit) for this position. Other than giving sample answers to this โ€œwhy are you a good fitโ€ interview question, I also point out the little things to get right, such as limiting your answer length to 2-2.5 minutes maximum (similar to the โ€œtell me about yourselfโ€ question). So whether you are a fresher / fresh grad looking for a sample answer, or an experienced professional looking for an answer structure, this video is a great resource. You will learn how to apply the concepts here and also avoid common mistakes others make when showing the interviewer why they should hire you.
