Today we're writing about the possible answer for popular
interview question "Why do you want to join our organization". In my
personal experience all big organizations do ask this question to almost every
interviewee in a job interview. The reason HR ask this question is simple, they
want to judge the reason candidate is seeking employment in that organization.
HR executive prefer to hire candidate who possess the skills which are required
for the position available & should be ready to give a long term uninterrupted
services to the company.
The common mistake people do while answering to this
question is that they simply tells that they want to join this organization
just to get a better salary, believe me this is the biggest mistake they do.
Never ever say it directly; although most of the people switch their job
because of salary reason but while answering to this question saying this reason
should be avoided rather show them that after joining the organization it will
be a win-win deal for both company & candidate. You should answer this question
in such a way that shows that if you join the organization it will be mutually benefited
to the growth of organization & the company.
There is no one liner answer to this question because it
depends on situation to situation & also depends if the candidate is
fresher or a experienced one.
For fresher candidate an answer to this question could be
like...
" I want to join this organization because it will give
a platform where i can implement the skills & knowledge i acquired from my
education & internship as well as it will give me a chance to learn from my
seniors & implements the learning in the betterment of the organization.
This will be my first job and that's the reason i want to work in a
organization where i can work for a longer period so that my career profile
could be impressive. i think your organization would be the best place to work
in."
In the above example you can see i've tried to answer the
question in a tricky way that say the candidate wants to join the organization
because it will be mutually benefited for the growth of each other & the
candidate also looking for a long term relationship with the organization.
For an experienced candidate an answer to this question
could be like this...
"I want to join this organization because i find this
role really interesting & challenging too. I'm having X years of experience
in the similar kind of work & i'm quite sure that the skills that i've acquired
from my current organization & past experience will help me do this work
very effectively. As i'm an experienced candidate in the similar field so i'm
looking for an organization with long term commitment. i think your
organization will be the best place to work, i'm sure i'll also learn &
improve my skills if got a chance to work for your organization."
being an experienced candidate you should show how you think
joining the organization will be mutually helpful for both of them. how do you
think you can contribute for the growth of the organization & why you're
the best candidate for this role. Always keep in mind organizations look for a
candidate who possess the skills required for the profile & should be ready
for a long term commitment.
