As an interviewer, I can identify candidates with a strong technology background. However, I realize resumes do not tell the entire story, and there may be relevant experience details that deserve a deeper dive. This is especially true of candidates who have not provided a cover letter or a resume specific to the role they are interviewing for.
In addition to uncovering the depth of your experience, this question will also show your interviewer that you understand the job description and requirements of the role. Interviewers value candidates who make this connection during an interview by clearly relating the requirements of the role to relevant and impactful projects they have worked on in the past.
