Day Care Assistant Question:

A short question, but one that requires a lot of preparation to answer correctly. It is important that you give the employer a sense that you are passionate and interested in their business, their company and what they do. No employer wants to think that you would work just about anywhere – even if that is the truth!

The best way to answer this question is to ensure that you fully research the company in advance. Understand who they are, what they do, what they sell, where they are headed as well as understanding the achievements they have reached and the challenges they face.

Then think about what you will bring to the company in this context. It is important to outline how you will benefit the company and not focus on what the company will bring to you.
An example of an effective response is:

“I have researched and read widely on your company and consider it a market leader within the digital industry. I am particularly very interested in some of the new projects which I understand are coming down the tracks – such as the building of a new website for the publishing industry, as well as the development of an online e-commerce site. With over 5 years experience in this arena, I feel that I can play a key role in ensuring the success of these new projects by bringing all my knowledge and know-how to the company.”
