HOW TO ANSWER WHY YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THE JOB, COMPANY & INDUSTRY ON YOUR RESUME

After all the recruiter wants to know that you are genuinely interested in the position. As they read your resume, they are primarily looking for assurances of this in the language and words you use. If they don’t see signals of genuine interest, they will likely assume that you submitted a blanket application.

Therefore, before you tailor your resume to a specific application, reflect on why you chose this particular job in the first place, and why you feel you are such a good fit? Did something about the role excite you? What resonates with you about the company? Researching the company and industry may help you identify this.

Update your resume and cover letter once you’ve determined why you’re applying. Utilize some of the research you’ve done and weave it in. A recruiter will only be impressed if you’ve made the effort to do your homework at this early stage
