This question is another way for the interviewer to ask why Facebook should hire you. For this reason, your answer must directly address the ways that hiring you will benefit Facebook.

First, consider the hard skills and soft skills you bring that are a match to Facebook's Recruiter job description. Hard skills can include specific knowledge you have gained through your recruitment or HR-related training and post-secondary education. Soft Skills can be the traits you possess, such as emotional intelligence and sociability. Think about any industry accolades or career achievements you've achieved. Perhaps you have taken the initiative to complete additional job training or learn a second language.

Next, comb through the job description very carefully. It's essential to answer this question in a way that places less focus on your needs and focuses more on Facebook's needs and the benefit of hiring you as their next Recruiter. Looking at this specific Recruiter job description, you can quickly determine what Facebook is really looking for in their successful candidate. Ensure you are fully prepared to connect the dots between what Facebook needs and what you can deliver.

Avoid giving a drab recap of your resume and instead point out exceptional highlights from your career thus far. Offer details of accomplishments you are proud of and even consider incorporating a story. Whatever your approach, ensure that your response stands out from the typical generic response many other candidates will give. This question is an opportunity to sell yourself for the role, after all.
