Why the Interviewer Asks This Question
This is an opportunity to showcase your merits and what you uniquely offer as a candidate. So take advantage of this shot to put your best foot forward. Think about how you answer this question before it is presented, and perform your homework on the company and the traits of their ideal candidate.

What You Need to Know
You'll want to prepare as much as possible before your HireVue interview begins. When an interview question appears on your screen, you'll have half a minute or less to prepare before it starts recording. You'll only get one shot at it and have no more than three minutes to deliver your answer. However, it will evaluate your communication skills throughout the set, so try to answer as succinctly and intelligently as possible, and never run out the clock because you think you need to. If the time runs out and cuts you off before you've finished answering, that won't speak well for your communication skills.
