Before applying to the job, you most likely researched the company to see their work projects. You can visit the company, talk to staff, read online reviews, and look at the company website to learn more about the company. The interviewer wants to see that you have done your research, which shows your enthusiasm and excitement for working for them. Describe the types of projects they work on and any other information that will make you stand out, such as any awards or recognition they have from working on these types of projects.

"I found when researching your company that you work on four types of projects: residential homes, condominiums, active living homes for retirement age, and multigenerational homes. I am impressed with the fact that your company has been awarded the Prestigious Excellence Award three years in a row for your multigenerational home designs, and I would be honored to work with your company on all types of projects."

When you answer, you want to be detailed in your response and avoid a short answer. For example, suppose the company describes on their website that they build custom residential homes that appeal to multigenerational families. In that case, you don't want to simply answer that the company builds residential homes. Be as detailed as possible to show you have done your homework.
