Day Boy Interview Question:

What are your biggest strengths? What will you bring to the team?

Submitted by: Administrator

Don't ramble on for minutes reciting every quality you can think of. I once sat through an interview where the candidate spoke for 5 minutes about how they were careful, yet willing to take risks, and that they were independent, but great in teams. It was confusing, and not convincing.

Choose 1-3 strengths that are relevant to predicting your success at the job and company. Carefully read the job posting and talk to current employees. Find out if their are common strengths that lead people to excel in the role.

Stay away from overly generic and lazy answers, like "I'm a people person." Instead, give solid examples of how your relationship building, research. and clear communication brought it and retained top clients at your last job. Highlight common themes in your achievements, and link them to tangible results. This question is basically: Why should we hire you?
