When answering this question, you have to step outside of yourself and consider how your interviewer's goals align with yours. They are looking for qualified candidates who not only have the experience and skills to do this job, but who also share their values, identify with their culture, and would serve well as the face and ambassador of their brands. So if you simply answer by stating that you are looking for a job that is close to home and matches your skills, this won't align with their goals, and they'll hire someone else. Consider what this value proposition communicates, which they've posted on their website in their recruiting efforts: "Exciting and fast-paced, a career at Nordstrom means staying ahead of the trends, moving quickly and being part of something we think is pretty awesome."
