Your interviewer is gauging how excited you are about an internship opportunity with Facebook. By testing a candidate's company knowledge, they'll get a better sense of how well they've prepared for their interview and the lengths to which they've researched the position. This will give them insights into their work ethic and enthusiasm for this opportunity. Your answer will help them determine if your personality fits the role, and they'll choose the candidate who is most aligned with their brand, their team, their environment, and their values and mission.

Anyone bringing on a new employee wants to gauge their like-mindedness and how well they'll fit into their work environment. So save them the trouble and do their homework for them. Make sure you perform your homework on the company and on yourself to see how well the two align. Once you have clear expectations of what working in their environment looks like, ask yourself if it feels like a good fit and what working for them could offer your career. Be honest with yourself, answering with sincerity. If it feels like a good fit, incorporate their language into your own, yet in a manner according to your nature. Be humble yet determined while you exude the confidence necessary for success.
