"Why do you want this job?" We all know it's to earn a salary. We all know it's to be able to live! Why do they want me to say. "It's been my dream to work here, the culture around the place really excites me and I especially like how it feels like a family environment." Why do they want to hear this spiel? Is it to boost ego? It's so frustrating having the same routine over and over again... Just let me be honest... Let me say to earn a salary and not have interviewers be put off by my honesty... Honestly, if I were interviewing candidates the people who had the guts to be honest with their real motivations would make me remember them and likely hire them...
