Kevin Downey has an extensive background in business management, recruiting, branding and marketing. He's volunteered his career coaching services at job fairs, lecturing on interview techniques and crafting winning resumes and cover letters.

Interviewers ask this question to determine if you align with their core values, mission statements, and value propositions. GSK suggests that their ideal candidates meet the following criteria: "You need to have real ambition. To possess genuine interest in your chosen career path and a self-motivated, proactive approach. You'll need to be a clear, effective communicator who can work across boundaries and quickly build a rapport with a wide range of people. We recruit and develop outstanding people, people who believe in our purpose, live our culture, and want to help us achieve our ambition."

How you answer will inform them of whether you have properly prepared for this interview, have read their criteria, have examined yourself and your qualities, and have identified this as a mutually beneficial good fit. Convey your like-mindedness and that it will take no time during your onboarding to get up to speed.
