What would you find to be most rewarding in this role at Microsoft?
Your interviewer wants to get a feel for your commitment and your passion for this role at Microsoft. It is fair to say that Microsoft is a very prideful company and this pride has been built on the success of the organization since its inception by Bill Gates and Paul Allen in 1975. Prior to your interview, prepare to talk about one or two aspects of this job that you will find the most rewarding, both personally and professionally. As you answer, don't hesitate to talk about the sense of pride that you would feel in working for Microsoft.
"The sheer success and innovation of Microsoft makes this opportunity so exciting for me. I am really looking forward to being a part of something greater and that has such a major impact on society as a whole. If hired for this role at Microsoft, I would wear this pride like a badge of honor in all that I would be doing in my work here."
