"This is one of the core behavioral questions that you should expect to cover in any interview. In particular, it asks you to justify why you want to work at a specific company that you've applied for. There's no right answer for this, however we do recommend you list at least three distinct reasons.
Here's an example of what you might say:

"One key thing I learned that made everything easier for me as a data analyst was the importance of structured thinking and communication before diving into the data. Early in my career, I used to jump directly into tasks like data cleaning, ETL processes—without fully understanding the problem or defining the questions I was trying to answer. This sometimes led to inefficiencies, as I would have to backtrack or redo work because the insights weren't completely aligned with stakeholder needs.

"When I joined my second Firm after my MBA, I was given a complex pilot project to manage end-to-end, despite having just about a year of experience. One client expressed concern about my limited experience and raised it to senior stakeholders. While I understood her concern, I decided to treat it as motivation rather than discouragement.

Do you count only the distance within the perimeter of central park or also the miles getting in and out of CP to my start location? ONLY CP

"Generally during the planning phase, I work with various teams to identify milestones and high level target date based on affinity sizing of the work. Based on that, I build a roadmap and if there are unforeseen issues/risks that may impact our target date, I flag it as a risk. For instance, if the teams are working on a project and there's an issue where a team states they need to extend out their target date and that impacts a dependent team, this will surely change the deliverable date for th"
