Hi all,

Recently I encountered this situation in an interview, the interviewer asked me "What do you know about this company?'

I answered base on the information I had (mostly from their website) and inserting my own points as when and where necessary..such as saying that their values are in line with my view, etc (bla bla).

In the end the interviewer just said that I know nothing about the company, that those are things from website.

I mean base on my research, those are mostly the available information I can get, only through their  website. Other information I found is basically is ex-employee lamenting about the company which is all and all standard nothing special.

In this case, how would you answer back or precisely what sort of answer they are looking?

Who are you being interviewed with? What was your first interview like?

Thus far, the few rounds I've been to, I have just been talking about my CV and experience, just to different folks.

For strength, just mention what trait best defines you. Organized, good team player, kaki jilat, etc.



Weakness, use a case study and shift it towards the positive side. For instance, you might procrastinate but you have tried adopting a mini to-do list and rewarding oneself by completing it.
