The best way to show your natural interest in your role and the industry is to read up on industry trends, newsworthy events, and policy changes. Discuss how you stay on top of industry trends and cite a few different ways that you keep up with the industry. Furthermore, impress the interviewer with a new tool or process that makes it easier for them to get industry knowledge.

"I keep up with the industry in three main ways - subscribing to industry newsletters, attending monthly meetups, and following thought leaders on Twitter. XX is an excellent industry newsletter that summarizes news, stats, and trends in the industry every morning. Monthly meetups not only open up new ideas but also create opportunities to forge new connections. Lastly, my Twitter feed is a real-time view of what top thought leaders are currently reading."
