How to Answer the Question
如何回答问题
  ● Research the company ahead of time. Interviewers will be listening for a response that shows you've done research on the company. Make sure you know some basic information about both the company and the job. You might want to read some recent articles on the company to get a sense of their current goals and projects. Also be sure to reread the job posting. This way, when you answer the question, you can mention specific aspects of the company and position that appeal to you.
  ● 提前调查公司。面试官将会听到显示出你对公司做过调查的答复。确保你知道公司和工作的一些基本信息，你可以通过读一些公司近期的文章来了解他们最近的目标和项目。同时要重新阅读招聘启事。通过这种方式，回答问题时你可以提到公司和职位吸引你的具体方面。
  ● Be specific about why you are a good fit. Be specific about what makes you a good fit for this role.  To prepare your answer, make a list of the requirements of the job (as explained in the job listing), and then note which requirements fit your skills and experience. In your answer, highlight a few of your abilities that qualify you for the job.
  ● 详细说明你为什么适合这个职位。详细说明你为什么最适合这个角色。为了更好地准备答案，列一份工作要求的清单（招聘启事中有写明），然后记录你的技能和经验适合哪些要求。在这份答案中，强调一些你能胜任这份工作的能力。
  ● Emphasize what you can contribute. Your answer should also emphasize what you can contribute—what will you bring to the position? Mention any skills or work experience that makes you a unique, strong candidate for the job. If possible, use numbers to express how you can add value to the company. For example, if you saved your previous company a certain amount of money, mention this, and say that you want to do the same for this company.
  ● 强调你能带来的贡献。你的回答同样应该强调你能做哪些贡献——你能为这个职位带来什么？提一些能让你与众不同、竞争力强的技能或工作经验。比如，如果你帮之前的公司省了一大笔钱，那就说一下这个事情，并且说你希望为新公司做同样的事。
  ● Avoid reasons that focus on you. Even if it's true, do not mention salary, hours, or commute as the primary reasons you want the job. Remember that you want to focus on how you can benefit the company, not how the company or job can benefit you.
  ● 避免你自身的原因。即使是真的，也别把薪资待遇、工作时长或者通勤归结为你想要这份工作的主要原因。记住你的重点是如何给公司带来利益，而不是公司或者工作如何给你带来利益。
