How many employees do they have?
For a job with a company that provides information technology software to the local healthcare industry, a job candidate could answer --

I see that your company has been in business for over thirty years, with an excellent reputation for reliable employee records management software, specializing in systems which can handle both unionized and non-union employees effectively.

Your clients range from small practices to the major healthcare providers in the country, and also include assisted living residences and nursing homes.

I'm very interested in learning more about the mobile apps you have developed to support collecting data from home healthcare suppliers. My experience in this field has shown me that we need to understand this work better both to provide better service and also to retain the best employees.

Or, a job candidate could provide this answer when interviewing for a job with an accounting firm --

This accounting firm was started in 1990 by Jane Whatever and Robert Example to provide auditing and corporate reporting services as well as Sarbanes-Oxley and other regulatory compliance and reporting. Your firm now has over 300 employees as well an excellent reputation.

Your clients include the top companies in this state. You have offices in the three largest cities in the state, and you seem to be consistently growing.
What are they best known for?

Their major competitors, and how they compare with those competitors in terms of size (total sales), profitability (maybe), how/where they are better (and worse), and anything else you can find.

Why would you like to join Nalco Champion?

This company is internationally known for its healthcare products, and my experience in the marketing of healthcare products has me intrigued by the opportunity this position presents.
Your business is known for making a commitment to bettering the community. I would love the opportunity to use my 10 years of experience in advertising to better this community along with you.
Not only are you a leader in the industry, with strong financials and a great business model, but I've also seen on your Facebook page and Twitter account that users of your product are hugely enthusiastic. In fact, I'm a product user myself and am eager to be a part of the product's development and distribution.

Your company's reputation is stellar. Former colleagues of mine work here, and I've seen how much they value the company's willingness to let employees pitch big ideas and have an active leadership role in new initiatives.
I know that your company is currently working to expand its international market. Having worked in international sales for the past five years, I am sure that I can help this company achieve its goals.
What are your strength and weaknesses?

Example 1: “I can be too critical of myself. A pattern I’ve noticed throughout my career is that I often feel I could have done more, even if objectively, I’ve done well. Earlier in my career, this led to burnout and negative self-talk. One solution I’ve implemented over the last three years is to actively pause and celebrate my achievements. Not only has this helped my own self-esteem, it’s helped me genuinely appreciate and recognize my team and other support systems.”
