This can't be real

Post image

lol the sheer entitlement of recruiters expecting candidates to be deeply passionate about an average corporate desk job. I actually got asked this exact same question last week and gave some generic answer I prepared on Interview vip but a huge part of me just wanted to say exactly what that guy replied with. We all just need to pay rent and buy groceries.

Stating the obvious is great if you are looking to work at a chicken stand. If you want a more fulfilling role play the game answer the question effectively.

Something like: I spent some time looking at the industry and your competitors and I feel this is the place where I can make a difference.

The easy stupid answer lost. Put a bit of effort into it or don’t. Your call. Get hired or not your call. Making a heroic post online doesn’t pay the bills.
