What do you know about what we do here?
Similar to asking why you want to work here, this question aims to gauge who the front runners are in the interview pool. It not only seeks to assess how informed you are but also how enthusiastic you are about joining their team.
Review the basics of what The Department of Veterans Affairs does. Any badges of pride they advertise are worth sharing when exhibiting your enthusiasm for what they do. Also, feature any facts or items of interest that resonate with you.
"The VA administers benefit programs for veterans, their families, and their survivors. These benefits include pension, education, disability compensation, home loans, life insurance, vocational rehabilitation, survivor support, medical care, and burial benefits."
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Great! If you are familiar with the types of services offered, their mission, vision, or core values, you could also share that knowledge as well.
