When sharing why you feel strongly about Nike hiring you, and giving your elevator pitch as to why you are the right candidate for the job, start off by taking the advice Nike offers on its website. "Make it personal! Do you have a story about how Nike has impacted you or your community? Or, how sport has made a difference in your life? That kind of passion is contagious, so don't hold back during your interview. Know the product! At Nike knowing product is important. No matter what role you're interviewing for, a foundational understanding of our innovative footwear, apparel and accessories is good to know. When we come to work, we act as one team. We stand by each other, include each other and value each other's contributions, believing everyone should have an equal chance to succeed. We do things the right way, acting with the principles we know the world expects from Nike."

Choose your words carefully. Spend some time looking up terms which you feel best apply to you or are naturally part of your vocabulary. Use professional adjectives to describe yourself and your situation, such as career focussed, ambitious, persistent, genuine, patient, enthusiastic, disciplined, and passionate. When speaking, try not to speak too fast as it could make you seem nervous. Speak more slowly, moderating your tone. This will help you come across as relaxed, as an equal speaking among your peers.

"In addition to my experience and strong track record, you should hire me because I am a loyal customer who believes and stands behind all of Nike's brands. I have three pairs of Converses, one pair of Air Jordans, and three pairs of Nikes. There is no one who would represent your company to your customers better than a loyal customer."
