"Why Should We Hire You?" by Jaycobbs(m): 8:59am On Jan 23, 2022 |
You begin by restating their problems back to them to show them that you understand it properly. Because, let’s face it: human beings are selfish at heart, and we are only interested in how we can benefit. Your potential clients/employers are doubly so because they would be paying for you out of their own pocket, so they want to be sure it’s ultimately in their best interests to do so. So, restate the original problem as stated in the job description. I know you have this problem, and because I have skill set A, B, and C, and I have been working in this niche for a while now so I’m quite proficient at what I do You might be paying me X amount of money, but hiring me would save you Y amount of money from working with amateurs, or lazy people. You might be paying me X amount of money, but hiring me would earn you Z amount of money. You can track me over the next ninety days and I'll prove to you why I'm the best hiring decision you have made. Make a list of your achievements and accolades if you have them. Highlight the education and training you have taken (even if your best education was a free course on Udemy). When talking about your skill set, make sure you discuss your relevant hard and soft skills in detail. Cheers and good luck applying! © Written by author, John Alabi 106 Likes 15 Shares |

As a job seeker I hated interviews, even now as an employer I still do. And both for the same reason: just because a person didn't do well in his interview doesn't mean he'd not have been the perfect fit for the job. 184 Likes 8 Shares |

thesicilian: Hiring people definitely requires a different set of skiills than applying for jobs. Anyone can master both. True, job interviews are not the perfect tools to judge competence, but selling is a skill everyone must learn—how to sell yourself, how to sell your products and services. You have clients and customers. If you'd failed to convince them you can deliver a job, they wouldn't patronise you. Allasame, you can always channel your distaste for interviewing to teaching people how to do it right. 21 Likes 1 Share |

Not only about the degrees or educational achievements. Try to use words like “Aside my degrees, I am an highly motivated and result oriented individual who can improve quickly in terms of challenges and and solution oriented goals” Money is the resultant effect of hard work, if you center your interview on only money, it is not bad, but also not convincing! 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Lol this reminds me of a white girls response to this question some years back. Interviewers : why do you think we should hire you? White girl: what a dumb question. Of course, You should hire me cos I need the goddamn money to pay my bills. I got bills to pay. I need to change my wardrobe as you can see. I need the money to live a good life! Lol.. I can't stop laughing any time I remember this or hear this question. I mean there's an element of truth in what she said. At least im not only going to be working towards the growth of the company, I'll work for my pocket too... Yeye girl. 11 Likes |

Because we sabi as e be...... On a serious note, Show that you have skills and experience to do the job and deliver great results. Highlight that you will fit in and be a great addition to the team. Describe how hiring you will make their life easier and help them achieve more. Be specific about key strengths and qualifications. Just because you shine in a dozen different areas doesn't mean you should talk about all of them. Give an example for each skill. Find the balance between confidence and humility. Here is another apt response to the question, adding to what the OP has listed above..... "Over the years, I have acquired relevant skills and experience, which I shall bring to your organization. I have also worked tirelessly on my communication abilities and teamwork skills, which I will put to use in my future career, which would be in your organization if I am selected for the position" All the very best to all applicants out there. God no go shame una. This is your year of moving forward in life. Go and succeed. 10 Likes 3 Shares |
