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.

You want to seem like you are in your comfort zone when interviewing for this position. The best way to do that is if you sincerely believe it.

Hirevue offers the following tip: "Maximize your comfort level and share your experiences and skills as naturally as possible. This is an opportunity to share your story as a candidate. All candidates applying to a position will receive the same set of questions, selected by the hiring company. Additionally, HireVue takes measures to prevent candidates from seeing these interview questions before they are taking an interview. These measures ensure that each candidate has the same amount of time to review the questions, and prepare their responses, giving all candidates the same interview experience and an equal shot at putting their best foot forward."
