They are really asking you, do you understand what it's like to work here and will you be able to thrive? They want to see if you can handle it if you're one of them or if you're a donkey among horses. Let's show them that you're a horse. But you know, reality. We all know that you're a unicorn.

So you'll have to suss that out for yourself, knowing this is the intention behind the question. Here are three rules to crafting your answer. First, emphasize flexibility. Second, call out things that you noticed about the culture that you like. Third, for the love of God, don't talk too much. Here are some examples. The first is good and the second is better. So if you don't know much at all about the culture, you can say, I've worked in a variety of environments for. From high pressure to casual to highly collaborative to having to find my own way. I adapt well to most. I'm not familiar what the environment is like here.

This final question you're asking is to make the interview again a two way conversation and also make sure that you are addressing the question. Under the question, they may reply, yes, that sounds right. Certainly not for the type of person who wants to clock in, clock out from nine to five. Boom. Did you just catch that?
