How Would You Answer This 'strange' Interview Question? by pappyG: 12:17pm On Apr 26, 2017 |
So yesterday I had a unique experience at the final stage of a job interview... We were asked to pitch the company to the interviewers and assume they were foreign investors I had enough time so I prepared quite ferociously for it and I aced it. In fact the interviewers couldn't help it, they had to clap... Then they asked me this "You know quite a lot about our company, what don't you Know" ? I was strangely thrown off by this question, I just couldn't come up with any answer that made sense to even me at that moment.... So I just started the usual blabbing, it was quite terrible that the White Guy had to say. " U don de spoil am now o!" In pidgin lol... I just hope they still consider me though So what would have been the perfect answer to this question? 7 Likes 1 Share |

Mackin: Maybe.....buh I already touched on those areas In the PowerPoint presentation, so... I think I would have really understood the question, if he simply asks " do you have any questions for us" Well, maybe he was trynna figure if I was 'smart' enough to understand him or there was a 'communication issue' 1 Like |

pappyG:Oh..... The interviewer tried to help you out buh you weren't smart enough to get it. Just be optimistic, you can still get the job. You might leverage on your presentation about the company. You can't get 100% in job interview. Best of luck bruh. 7 Likes |

This shouldn't be on FP as I see no contribution to new knowledge or awareness. What don't you know...everything about the company. A company's culture can not be seen from outside except you'd worked there, pay scale, benefits, support etc etc. 1 Like |

Very simple question I must say. "What I don't know of course are confidential information that makes the company, the company. Such as, trade secrets, Unique selling point of the business and so on. As these are top secret in any organization" I didn't think twice to answer that question. 8 Likes |
