QUESTION 13 OF 25

What motivates you to work hard?

Talk about how you are motivated on the job, and what keeps you focused on the task at hand. It helps to prepare your answer before an interview, so you have time to identify what a specific employer might want to know, come up with an honest answer, and bring focus to your talking points. A candidate who can quickly provide a well-crafted, natural explanation of what keeps them motivated on the job is someone who is likely also a self-starter and knows how to stay on track.

"I have a very strong work ethic and was raised to be a hard-working and focused worker. What motivates me to work hard is my desire to be seen as a reliable and valuable member of the team. I also get a lot of satisfaction from completing complex projects within fast-paced deadlines."

"Success is what motivates me to do a good job. Knowing the fact that my hard work and perseverance will help me achieve greater professional success is what keeps me going. I feel that aligning the company's vision and values with my own is one way to achieve that. When I know that my efforts are following the correct path, it encourages me to push more."

Hiring managers want to get a sense of your personality and who you are as a person. They also want to see your resiliency, determination, perseverance, and work ethic.
