Why are you the best candidate for us?

"My communication skills always help me get along with my team, no matter the challenge. I am a good listener and stay positive under pressure."

"No matter what my position, I am a firm believer that it's my job to make the jobs of those higher up on the chain of command easier. I put my all in, and anticipate the needs of management as best as I can. Anything that doesn't require their attention, I try to handle myself. If there's something that requires their attention, I'll give them a heads up. Whether it's issues with personnel, or something I've picked up on with my high attention to detail, I just try to put my all in. As I figure it, what others would call going above and beyond is just really me doing my job. When my managers say to me, 'you really go above and beyond,' I feel like I'm doing the bare minimum."

Now's the time to show off how your skills and traits will impact your new team. Consider answering this question by demonstrating how you have proven yourself in your past roles. For example, you could say, "My communication skills always help me get along with my team, no matter the challenge. I am a good listener, staying positive under pressure."

You may also have mad organizational skills to keep confidential information secure and accurate, a beneficial quality to support any team. Keep your strengths and examples relevant to what they may expect you to accomplish in this new role. Believe in yourself and others will believe in you. Remember, you have so much to offer!

Be humble, yet confident. Steer clear of coming across as arrogant, while conveying your value, and how others have held you in high regard. Offering examples of the esteem others hold for you can go a long way here.
