Expectations from a job

What they really want to know is, why do you want to work here? What’s in it for you? What aspects of this job appeal to you and why?

You must have done your research in order to answer this question, because you need to be able to explain why THIS job, with this company, is the one for you.

Job Expectations

With every answer you give, you should give them another reason to want to hire you, so part of what you say you want or expect from this job should always be a chance to benefit this company:
“I expect that in this job, I’ll utilize my XYZ skill set to help you accomplish A, B, and C.”
Or you could say:
“I expect that because I can utilize my ABC skill set in this role, and be successful and help move you forward, that I will be extremely happy and productive here.”

Along with pointing out your skills match, point out what it is that you like about this particular company:
“I expect to be excited to get up and come to work every day because I will be working at a job that is a great fit for me because of X, Y, and Z, at a great company I’ve read so many good things about.”

Maybe this company:

• Does work you’re especially excited about
• Provides a product or service you love
• Fosters a sense of community you can’t wait to be a part of

Whatever it is, say it with sincerity.

Here is your chance to express your genuine enthusiasm for the job and sum up why you’re a great fit for it.
