When a hiring manager asks, “Why should we employ you?” what they actually mean is, “What makes you the greatest match for this job?” Your response to this question should be a succinct sales presentation outlining what you have to offer the company. Employers recruit people to solve problems, whether that challenge is increasing revenue, simplifying operations, or establishing a brand. When making your pitch, you want to demonstrate that you’re the greatest person for the job. Interviewers ask questions regarding why you should be employed in order to determine how qualified you are for the position and how well you will fit in with the organization.
