Here "What interests you about the position offered?" is a problematic question for anyone, even the most prepared interview candidate. It is one of those questions that might decide between selected individuals who have the same qualifications and experience. When asked "what about this job interests you", the interviewer wants to know why you decided to apply specifically for this job and why do you consider this position fitting you and your career plans.

I consult with people, try my best and treat everyone positively/equally.   Tips to follow while answering this question :: 1. Be Specific 2. Be Truthful 3. Be Real
