All three of those questions are entirely yours to answer.

-No one here can tell you why you want to do investment banking.

-You haven't given a specific company, so how can we tell you what makes it unique?

-We don't know anything about your skill-set and background, so we can't tell you what you can contribute.

I'm not exactly sure what you're looking for, the answers to these questions need to be genuine to you.
