Companies invest a lot of money advertising their job openings. The interviewer wants to hear what methods are effective and which are not. They also want to hear if an employee of their agency referred you. Tell the interviewer how you heard about the position, and be sure to give the name of the employee or recruiter who referred you if applicable. Some companies offer their employees a referral fee when referring a candidate, while others hire recruiters to seek out qualified candidates.

The interviewer wants to briefly hear how you heard about the position. Be concise in your response, focusing on the recruiter's name, the website where the agency posted the job, the agency website, or an employee referral.

Avoid forgetting where you heard about the position. If you cannot remember where you learned about the job opening, the interviewer will determine that you do not pay attention to detail and might be applying to many other positions.

"I heard about this position from your website. I have only wanted to work for your agency since obtaining my bachelor's degree and set up an alert on your website. I was notified the day the job became available."
