ESLPod.com presents "Interview Questions Answered," episode three.

I am now looking for a new challenge where I can take my proven skills and apply them to new situations, as well as learning new techniques to continue my own development.
This is the company I've been looking for, a place where my background, experience, and skills can be put to use to make things happen.
In our second sample answer, we see many of the same ideas as in the first sample answer following the tips that we began this episode with.
The person begins the answer to the question by saying that "There are several reasons why I want to work for this company."
He says, "First, I was impressed with the backgrounds of the founders."
To be impressed means to have a favorable or positive impression or positive opinion of someone.
When you say, "I'm impressed," usually it means that you are even a little surprised.
In general, it means that you have a very positive opinion.
Once again, it's important to tell the interviewer that you have a very positive opinion-a very good impression-of their company.
He says he was "impressed with the backgrounds," or the experience, "of the founders" of the company.
The founders, "founders," or founder (singular), is the person or are the persons that start an organization-that start the company.
So, Bill Gates was the founder of Microsoft; he was the one who began the company-who started the company, or at least, one of those.
He goes on to say that he's impressed with the vision of the founders for this company.
Vision, "vision," is your idea or your picture of what the future will be.
It's similar to mission; it's usually related to your purpose-why you are doing something-what you see the future to be, and he's saying he's impressed with the founder's vision.
So, he's done some research-he's looked at the company. He's seen what the company is doing and where they are going.
