"When I read the job description, I smiled because it was truly as though you had written it with me in mind. I know that I am the best candidate for this role because I consistently exceed goals and I know the energy industry. Also, I was the fastest promoted in my previous position and have led the rollout of new markets in my current position, making me ideally positioned to help you continue to build your sales organization, markets, and exceed financial metrics. Not to mention, I am looking for a company that I can stay with for the long haul, something that you mentioned you value."

This is a common Suncor interview question and there are several routes to success. Your answer should communicate that you meet all of the requirements and that you're excited about the job. To go beyond the minimum, consider including at least one of the following within your response:

- Something you're passionate about that aligns with a product, service, or program at Suncor
- Experience you bring that goes beyond the job requirements
- Something that will likely set you apart from other candidates
- A connection with a supplier or vendor that adds value
- A relationship with a current Suncor employee who feels you'd be a great fit

"You should hire me for three main reasons. First, I meet all of the requirements and many of the nice to have qualifications for the role. I have the knowledge and experience necessary for success and can add value quickly. Second, I am a fast learner and I resonate with Suncor's value of lifelong learning. Suncor offers a long-term career path that would allow me to continue to grow for many years ahead. Finally, I am a superb teammate and collaborator. I know so much of what has made Suncor a success is its ability to forge strong relationships, and I would exemplify Suncor's values in this area if hired."
