Every employer should know how each staff member is best motivated. Talk to the interviewer about the variety of ways in which you receive motivation on the job. But steer clear of tangible rewards, such as donuts, bonuses, high pay or other incentives. Rather, focus on behavioral motivators and the environments that foster your level of innovation and encourage excitement for your work.

"I am best motivated through words of praise and recognition for a job well done. I do like to know that my efforts are noticed. In my current position, we have a leaderboard, and I do like that concept because it creates a healthy bit of personal competition for me as well."

"It's important to me that I felt capable and trusted in the workplace. If you see me doing a great job, let me know. Also, you could offer me additional, and more senior, responsibilities."

I work well in a positive environment. I enjoy getting feedback on my performance from my supervisor. The good and even the bad. It allows me to improve my performance, which is always a goal for me at work.
Cindy's Feedback
Great! Expand a bit by explaining why these are motivational? Does feedback lead to growth and a sense of achievement that is motivating? Does a positive environment make it easy to come to work and do your best?
