there is something I don't still get....why should a company query her employee of not being passionate enough for the job while at the same they pay peanuts only able to meet the employees transport fare and nothing else
If you're not happy with the pay, resign.
You can't afford to be taking their peanuts or crumbs and not deliver quality service. Nature has a way of rewarding passionate service. Don't ruin your chance of getting such reward.

It's better to resign than give poor service.
That's my policy.

on the fresh graduate part, i was expecting something for those that have no job experience at all knowing that a lot of fresh graduates have no experience.
All the same, nice write-up.

Do employer still employ in Nigeria based on merit and the way you answered their questions?

If yes, then it's 1 out of 1million.

When there's vacancy, they announce it among themselves. They only make it public when the vacancy posts are filled up. Then they play upon one's intelligence.

Abeg, this your thread can only work in Iceland, Australia and other countries where jobs are more than the people not the other way round

This question should be answered in the most sincere way possible. Using all the grammar you described above still may not earn you the job, simply because the previous interviewee may have said better. The next interviewee may have read this post too and say the very same thing, or something way better. So, tell me, when two people answer the question in exactly the same way, who should they now hire? Besides, last time i checked, talk is cheap.

When an interviewer asks you that question, answer it sincerely. Say the very thing they least expect. Say something in the line of 'Well, truth is, i'm not the only one suited for this job. There are many people who'd do this job perfectly, as well as i would. I'm only certain i'm a bonafide member of that set of people. My credentials speak for me, i'm qualified for the job, you can see i possess the skills you need, but it's not a do-or-die affair and my life isn't tied to the job. I'll be happy for whoever gets this job whether it is me or not. It's your job and awarding it is your call. It's up to you'.
I just love ur last paragraph.....thanks so much

Best Answer from my interviewing applicants

Why should we hire you?

Applicant: I see no reason, absolutely none, why you shouldn't


I was in awe. I defined this applicant as one of the most analytical person I have ever met...in the top 1 percentile as regards IQ

This would surely leave the interviewer speechless, because you have spoken the truth he knows and nobody else would dare speak. You have shocked him. It's better than constructing white lies in Queen's english, boasting and ranting about what you very well know you are not.
@Olamide : I really appreciate your contribution towards this.
@ All Readers: Don't cram this! It's just to make you understand what you need to know about this type of question during interview.

Please Note these:
God's Factor first: Know God and put HIM first.
Know yourself and what you want, your career path and what are good at and capable of doing well.
Know more about the organization.
Know the job description etc. ..
