      Why the Interviewer Asks This Question

      When looking at a great group of well-qualified candidates, it is my experience that hiring managers will seek the candidate who has done their homework on the job and knows what it takes to be successful. For Kimberly-Clark, this may boil down to the candidate that already has a plan of attack on the job, and your interviewer wants to hear your initial goal from day one.

      "My priority would be soaking up as much information about culture, process, and KPIs as possible. I'd embark on a 'listening tour' to engage in deep conversation with my team and colleagues to discover the greatest current needs and how to prioritize them based on company goals for the quarter. I would strive to meet or exceed all KPIs for the business quarter as efficiently as possible."

You might also mention meeting with your new manager to clarify their expectations, in addition to introducing yourself to your new colleagues and getting to know them. Also, what steps will you specifically take to soak up all that information? Providing additional details will make your answer more meaningful and memorable to the interviewer. Good job!
