On Shark Tank, the investors occasionally ask something like: “why did you choose this?”

I think they’re wanting to know a little more about the entrepreneur and what’s led them to this point.

Most have a compelling reason, along with a backstory.

Sometimes, an interviewer may ask you a similar question about why you’ve decided to choose Salesforce as a career.

Having a well thought-out answer could help demonstrate your personality, likeability, humility, relatability, and other areas that fall into the lighter side of why you might be a good fit.

It’s often not all about page layouts, security, objects, data, certifications, and other tangible areas, regarding why you’re chosen to move to the next round of interviews.
