…this is sooooooo weak …and it is the last idea most candidates give a hiring authority…
mamby-pamby…has absolutely zero impact…if that is the best emotional effort you can express to a hiring authority…go home!
your competition is gonna eat your lunch…
try this: “your opportunity is an excellent one…you should hire me because ………(and if you can’t think of two or three short, compelling reasons to be hired, you don’t deserve the job)….what do i need to do to get the job?”
even if you may not want the job…you have nothing without an offer…
i had a candidate that was simply “practicing” this technique with one of my clients..he didn’t think he wanted the job even if it was offered…
he got the offer…$42,000 MORE than what he was making for a salary…not bad..especially in this market he took the job!
