If you found something unique about the organization, focus on bringing up that noteworthy fact in your response. Give a brief description of the organization, highlighting the name of the CEO or person in charge, mission statement, when the organization was founded, the number of employees, what community they serve, and any other interesting facts you discovered.

You want to avoid being unprepared to answer the question. If you fail to do your research, the interviewer will question your investigative skills and determine that you may not be a motivated employee or lack attention to detail if hired.

"Your 'Division of Criminal Investigations' employs over 1,000 personnel, including investigators, agents, office staff, programmers, and instructors.
