You didn’t tell us why you want the job. This job. If you haven’t spent any time learning about us and what we need, why should we do the same for you? Every candidate that gets to the interview stage requires us to do hours of preparation, interviews, and discussion. If your introduction is generic, I’m led to believe that you’ve contacted dozens of other companies as well. If we’re going to invest our time in getting to know you, we’d like to know you’re serious about us.
