You should have some idea of the structure of this company. For example, if this company is a Mom and Pop small insurance agency that has been in business for 20 years, a startup, or a global organization, it is best to mention that in your answer.

"When I saw your position opening, I was immediately excited. Currently, I work for a large global organization, and I feel I get lost. I feel I would be much more comfortable and valued in an organization such as yours, which is smaller. I would have more of a chance to build relationships with co-workers and clients."
