What do you think this company could do better?
The “what do you think this company could do better” question is very common during interviews. Some hiring managers may instead say “how could you improve the company”- or “what would you differently if you were starting your own company.” Really- these are just different ways to ask the same thing.
How to answer “why do you want to work for this company?
Try to identify the company’s specific needs, and then respond by giving examples as to why your education, skills, accomplishments, and experience will make you an asset for the employer by fulfilling those needs. When you respond, take a few moments to compare your goals with the objectives of the company and the position.
How do you answer what can you contribute to this company?
Here’s how to give the best response to the interview question, “What can you contribute to this company?” Emphasize What You’ve Accomplished. Provide concrete examples from past jobs to show how you have contributed to other companies. Sharing examples is a way to show employers the kind of work you will likely do for them.
How do you answer “how can you improve your future company?
Rather than solely focusing on how your potential future company could be improved- let the hiring manager know you are ready to step in and help the company reach its goals. Answer the question- and then expound on how you can help bring about those changes.
