When it comes to hiring decisions, a company will choose the person that they believe will help them to solve a problem or a pain point. By clearly discussing how you will solve the hiring company's biggest needs, you are positioning yourself as the top choice candidate. Think about your best skills and qualifications. Try to include a mix of hard skills and soft skills. Then, looking at the job description, for the role in question, you can quickly dissect what the hiring company is really looking for in a candidate.

Avoid using this question as an opportunity to recite everything on your resume. Your response should highlight the reasons why your achievements, skills, and characteristics are a match for the hiring company's most pressing needs. Sprinkle in some of your proudest achievements. Mentioning specific numbers, percentages, awards, and accolades is an excellent way to grab the hiring manager's attention. You can also tell a story! Psychology tells us that offering a compelling, relatable story makes us 22x more memorable.

"I understand that you are looking for a marketing manager who can lead a remote team of graphic designers, copywriters, and ad sales professionals. In my current position, I lead a team of 15 remote employees and 12 in-house employees. It has been a great experience learning how to merge these two teams, ensuring that projects come together on time. This year, I was awarded manager of the year after being nominated by my peers and leadership team. If you choose to hire me, I will bring tenacity and dedication, leading your remote team to optimum performance and success."

One of the team recommended me for the role And I suspect that’s because I’ve built a reputation for thought leadership, simplifying the complex, and leading teams to greatness.

Marcie's Feedback

It's awesome that someone has recommended you for the role, and your description of yourself ('built a reputation for thought leadership, simplifying the complex, and leading teams to greatness') is powerful. But really take this opportunity to sell yourself. Explain too what differentiates you from other candidates and remind the interviewer of all the skills, qualities, education, and experience you bring to the table. Great job!
