The interviewer would like to know your thoughts on being paid based on your work performance versus being compensated solely on your years of experience. As millennial employees continue to dominate the work scene, more and more employees are requesting compensation based on delivered results. Consider if you feel that you should be paid based on tenure or results. Discuss this with the interviewer and back your answer with an example if possible.

As much as I feel that performance should be rewarded over experience, I also believe that an individual's knowledge gained through years of experience cannot be ignored. So I think that as long as there is no injustice being done to either party, both performance and experience should be rewarded as they promote efficiency and loyalty respectively.

This is a level-headed, logical response. If I were the interviewer, I would get a sense of who you are based on the way you responded. Great job! I assisted with minor edits.
