QUESTION 12 OF 30

Why do you need this job?

The hiring manager wants to know what you are looking for rather than getting at your current job. The employer wants to ensure that they can deliver that and that your goals align with theirs.

Explain why you want to work there and what you know about the company. Include something about this company that your current employer cannot provide.

"Based on the reputation from what I heard from current employees the teamwork is fantastic and turnover is low. In addition, working for you would allow me to improve my knowledge of spirits and cordials. I know your downtown location is the premier place to enjoy a cordial or specialty coffee, and I am excited at the possibility of being a part of that experience."
