Best Answer

Start out by jotting down the needs and requirements that the employer has specified. For example, if a job requirement was 'requires resolving customer problems, and answering the phone" you could say, "Since I am a people person and love to help others, I am attracted to the level in which I will be interacting and helping others". You get the idea. Focus on something that the employer wants and turn it into a positive statement that reflects what attracts you.

Consider the job position and your background before customizing these answers.

Keep in mind that you should try to construct an answer that will explain who you are and why you are there.

Another good idea is to add a few words about the good/positive image of the company.

you can say you would like to reorganize your desk lol try not to mention the bad stuff

Agreed with above, but would add that trying to change things for the better, like improving your skills, needing a new challenge, using the skills/experience you have to make a difference.. I think it's reasonable to touch on something you didn't like at a previous job, providing it's tackled with respect and honesty.

That's a very interesting question to be asked in an interview and a great opportunity to impress the interviewer with your response. It's a question that should be thought through carefully. Your answer should focus on specific learning and growth opportunities that are lacking in your current position. If compensation is your only reason for leaving, then the company will be concerned about your current company offering a counter-offer of more money and you staying there. Plus, and more importantly, a company wants to know that you are coming to them for opportunity, not money.

When you consider leaving a position, it's a good idea to make a list of the things that you are seeking in a new position anyway so you know what positions fit you and your career goals and which ones don't. If you have already made that list, answering this question should be easy.

One additional thing to keep in mind is that the answer to ANY question should be specific to that company, so make sure that you discuss the changes that you would make to your current position that are relevant to the opportunities that exist at the company you are interviewing with. If you list 5 things you would change, and non of them exist with the new company, it will tell them that you will soon want to leave this company too.

Highlight the new challenges and experiences you look forward to in the position and why you are qualified to handle them. Align your interests with the abilities they are looking for in the right job candidate. Carefully study the job posting and job description to make your answer relevant. Research the company and note down what it is about the company that is attractive to a potential employee.
