"I only know what I read on your website, and reviews on LinkedIn, Google, etc. Your website information was very appealing, but there were mixed reviews online. I do not put a lot of emphasis on reviews, as I know that most people only take the time to leave a review if they are upset. There was only a handful total, and I see that you have hundreds of employees. Overall, I feel comfortable with your organization and the information you have shared with me here today."

The interviewer would like to know that you have researched their organization before your interview. Company culture and fit is a critical factor when considering a career move. Assure the interviewer that you have put thought, research, and consideration into how the company culture will work for you.

Your stores are known for encouraging continued education and offers advanced training. The company's core values, which include honesty and integrity, as well as the firm belief in respect for the individual, are values I strive for every day. I also read many employee reviews about how they have fun and love their job.

Kevin's Feedback

It is very apparent that you have done your homework on the company! Great answer. I've enhanced your messaging a bit.

There was a facility I worked with where I struggled with a few coworkers where they were not answering their e-mails in a timely fashion. If it was one person, that would just require a conversation. But with as many employees who weren’t using their email as an effective communication tool to stay up to date, that makes the problem systemic. So I decided that I would schedule weekly meetings to get everybody on the same page and enhance communication. That seemed to do the trick.
