"I read up on companies that are pioneers towards innovation and the unconventional work models that help them yield those results. I see myself thriving in an environment like that. I want to work somewhere that fosters an environment that allows me to give my best. I aim to over-deliver and put in my best because I love what I do, and when you enjoy doing what you do, you'll do a good job. So, in addition to loving what I do, I want to work somewhere where I'll love where I work. Based on everything I've read about your work environment and culture, it seems like there's a lot of potential there."

This question is different from asking why you want to work for them. The interviewers ask why they should hire you while testing to see if your personality fits the role. The hiring authority's goal is to find a candidate most aligned with their brand, teams, culture, and environment. Exude a sense of self-awareness and explain how well you align with what they're looking for. Within context, describe yourself, how other professionals perceive you, what degree of their perception rings true, and why. Describe what you have to offer and why you believe it. This is your elevator pitch.

They want to make sure that you are the right fit for this opportunity for the right reasons. For them to believe you are a good fit, you have to believe it. HireVue will evaluate the confidence behind your statements. Remain objective and confident, keeping your face and posture relaxed and your body language open and at ease. Your answer will help them determine if you are shooting for the stars or a more realistic target.
As they state on their careers page; "As if you're driven to better yourself professionally and personally, there's a place for you here. If you want movie nights, ice cream socials, athletic and volunteer clubs, or just want "wear your PJ's to work" days, that's all here, too."
