I don't. If they act like this I end the conversation. I'm also 92 and ain't putting up with shit anymore.

Interview answer that flies?
From your job description to your Glassdoor number, to your website, all of your public facing material says this is the best environment for someone like me to thrive in. I wasn’t entirely sure I did want to work for you. But now that I’ve verified that the internal matches the external I can’t imagine pursuing another org as long as I live.

…or some bloated hype like that.

Most of your reviews don't suck and I think you'll pay me more than I make currently.

Money will alsywas be at the hearth of it, however, I wont work for you if there are some major red flags I see during the interview, especially now that I`m a family guy :D

This interview question pops up every now and then. I wish I could tell the interviewer it’s all about the $$. But that’s not what they are looking for.

They are looking for someone who’s done their research about the company, the industry, and other intangibles outside of money.

But in the end it’s all about the money. They have some, you want some.

I mean, that is a legitimate answer. You want to work for a company where you can maximize your income potential. Then you just need to show how this company is better than others in that area via product/leadership/marketshare/marketing/etc.

Too obvious to be asked, they're expecting a special answer though, as if they were special or even were gonna treat you differently if you got a unique answer for that!
Come on Corps you hire us cuz you need us nothing else:)

As most probably either your numbers are down and need an uplift from someone else or even steady that need someone to lift em up:)
