What do you know about our organization?
"After reading your company's website, I learned that you have offices in several locations in the local area and all of them are occupied by various clients. Can you share what type of clients are in these buildings and the number of buildings that this role would be responsible for managing?"
The interviewer wants to know that you've taken some time to learn about the company. This not only shows your interest level but can also determine whether or not you are a good fit for the organization. When interviewing for a position, it is important to ensure the organization is a good fit for you.
Before your interview, read the company's website, social media, customer reviews, and client feedback. Based on what you find, determine if the values, services, and company culture align with what you are seeking. Share what you learned during the interview, and use this time to ask any questions you may have.
"I did some research on the company and learned that you serve many clients in the XYZ industry. The majority of the reviews I read were positive, which was great to see. Your company's goals and reputation are exactly what I'm looking for in a company."
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

I was curious and looked at your LinkedIn. I see you've worked at WeWork for about 4 years. What's it been like through the transition? and would you apply for this role if you were job hunting?
Stephanie's Feedback
It's great to hear that you did some LinkedIn research on the person interviewing you, but since this question is specifically about the organization (and not the individual,) I suggest focusing on what you learned about the organization. This is a great opportunity to show your enthusiasm for the organization and your alignment with the role.
