Interview Skills: Tell Me About Yourself

How to answer. "Tell me about yourself" ?

There are some job interview questions that are guaranteed to come up in most (if not all) of your job interviews, regardless of your industry, your experience level, and job type. 

At the top of this list is the universal and much-dreaded classic: “Tell me about yourself.” 

This question (or a variation like “Walk me through your background”) comes up in just about every job interview and many job searchers hate it. 

They hate it because they get frustrated trying to decipher exactly what the interviewer is looking for. However, if you prepare properly, there’s no reason to dread this question. 

In fact, this question is an opportunity an opening for you to set the tone of the job interview and emphasise the points that you most want this potential employer to know about you. 

Don’t waste the opportunity by simply diving into a long recitation of your resume. This also isn’t the time to mention that you love flamenco dancing and bingo (yes, I have seen candidates ramble on about hobbies and personal preferences many times and it’s a surefire way to make a weak first impression). 

Instead, try a concise, enthusiastic response that summarises your big-picture fit for the job. This is also a good opportunity to share some information about your proudest achievements and goals.
