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

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

First, consider the hard and soft skills you bring that match Google's Recruiter job description. Hard skills can include specific knowledge gained through your recruitment or HR-related training and post-secondary education. Soft skills can be your traits, 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 the needs of Google. Looking at this specific Recruiter job description, you can quickly determine what Google is looking for in their successful candidate. Ensure you are fully prepared to connect the dots between what Google needs and what you can deliver.

"I understand that Google is seeking a Recruiter with a proven ability to manage full-cycle recruiting efforts for multiple complex searches.
