Q

Why do you want to work for our company as an account executive?

A

I initially saw this job posting on Linkedin, and I wanted to do some research into your company to understand the duties at hand. Although Linkedin lists a bunch of skills that are common for applicants who are also applying for this position, I wanted to see the business and industry that I would actually apply these skills.

The company’s website showed the explosive growth that has consistently been occurring, and gave examples of big name companies within just the past 5 years. This was even highlighted in your Linkedin summary. I was impressed. I want to work somewhere that has this kind of growth, it excites me to be part of something that has this kind of energy, It excites me to make contributions to a company with this kind of energy.
I guess, I already have a growth mindset myself, so working for a company that allows me to utilize this, would be the perfect fit for me and my abilities.
