Convince me why you are the best candidate for this job

How will you respond to the question, “Convince me why you are the best candidate for this job or tell me why I will go home regretting not hiring you?”

This question carries the highest point during any interview, just know at this point this is where you need to sell yourself, show case your skills, show your experience, show abilities,  show what you bring to the table , show strength and top qualities not on your CV.

Start with your strongest strength,  lest I forget when you are preparing for an interview for Companies that produce products “PLEASE TRY AND READ ABOUT THEIR PRODUCTS AND CHECK OUT THEIR PRODUCTS REVIEW ONLINE AND NOTE DOWN WHAT PPLE SAY ABOUT THEIR PRODUCTS.

This come in handy and boosts your confidence as the goal of any organisation is to bring in someone who can solve problems.

You could use customers review as your strong point and provide solution and show how they can do better and how they can ensure customers are happy using their products again. If marketing is their weak point drive your point in this area, if it’s branding, brand analysis or anything use this areas to show case your strength and show what you can bring to the table.

DON’T MISS: Things To Remove From Your CV If You Must Be Hired

Remember when you are bringing the table bring the legs as well because the competition is really high and you have to stand out to get that offer letter with your effort and determination

For people applying for managerial positions or supervisory position it is important your cv have depth and show your achievements rather than your responsibility. The reason is very simple

1. It will make your interview process smooth and easy for you as everything needed to be seen is already on your CV.

2. It will help your bargaining power very well

3. If hired it will help your career growth and acceleration faster because you have showed what you have done on paper.

4. It gives you confidence and respect during negotiations and how you are being perceived as a person

This is the advantages because all you have done at your previous company is there.
