Every employer should know how each staff member and interns are best motivated. Talk to the hiring manager about the variety of ways you are best motivated on the job. The interviewer wants to see what motivates you and if you will be a good fit with the company culture if hired.

There is no right or wrong answer here. You might be motivated by praise from your superiors, being recognized for a job well done, or being offered promotions or extra job duties based on your performance.

Avoid saying you are motivated by your paycheck or the number of days off you will receive. The hiring manager wants to hear how the company can encourage you in your role as an intern.

"I am best motivated through words of praise and recognition for a job well done. I like to know that my efforts are noticed. We have a leader board in my current position, and I like that concept because it creates a healthy bit of personal competition."
