An international student was asked at the end of an interview, "Is there anything you'd like to say?" They politely answered, "No, there isn't." They had spoken well throughout the interview, but the result was disappointing. Of course, every company is different, so this one phrase alone doesn't decide the outcome. Still, this answer often works against you. ## Try saying this instead You don't need to talk for long. Under 30 seconds is enough. First, say "Thank you for giving me this opportunity." Then add just one thing you didn't get to say in the interview. For example, something like "I didn't get to mention this, but I have experience serving customers, so I think I'd be a good fit for this job." Finish with "I will work hard." You're welcome to ask about anything you're curious about. "What kind of work will I be given first when I join the company?" Questions like that are good. Be careful about asking only about salary or vacation. ## Why is "I have none" a letdown? Korean interviewers offer this question to mean, "This is your last chance to show us more." But "I don't have any" isn't a modest way of declining; it can sound like "I'm not really curious about this company." Korean companies look for people who are willing to work together for a long time, as much as people who are good at their jobs. That's why they often pay more attention to enthusiasm than to skill. In Korea, it's usually polite to decline by saying "No, I'm fine," but interviews are different. Here, speaking up actively is what's polite.
