Interview question tell me about yourself?
3
I have a strong interview anxiety. I know I have a great potential because of my work ethic, values, experiences, and qualities as a person. But, how can I prove that to the panel if I'm super nervous and forget what to say at the moment. My anxiety ruins my opportunity to show them that I'm a great fit. I don't know how to overcome this.
There is a company that I interviewed with and they passed me up. Now the company is reposting the job again. It appears that they have not found the correct candidate Would it be wrong to resubmit my resume to the company for another interview? Or should I just I just correct about it? and disregard?
Growth Isn’t Always Comfortable One thing I’ve realized in my career journey is that growth often comes disguised as discomfort. The roles that stretch you, the feedback that challenges you, and the moments you feel uncertain—those are usually the turning points. If you’re in a phase where things feel unclear or tough, you’re probably evolving. Stay consistent. Stay open to learning. The results will follow
Does anyone draw a complete blank at interviews? From the time they say "So tell me about yourself" I go into fight or flight mode. It as if they're asking me about someone else's life. They say don't try to memorize your answers, but I have no other choice. I sturdy all these stories and intro's about myself and still can't remember. I don't know what to do. I have had at least 4 interviews and at each one I rambled and didn't get the job.
I’ve started judging companies by how they reject candidates. Some places make you feel respected even with a no. I received the nicest rejection email today that let me down easy and still made me feel hopeful about my next interview. Others just ghost like a situationship. Can’t help but wonder how they think they’ll attract great talent they treated that way in the past?
I'm broke I'm hungry I need this job can I have it?
This is one example of how you should NOT answer this interview question
I summarize my resume, highlighting important details and expanding on anything particularly relevant to the position. I basically tell a story about the things I accomplished in my career and why I am their best candidate.
I talk about my priorities in my work, what work means to me (not as it relates to $), and why those things seem to be a good fit for their organization.
Am tall , sexy , ambitious, go getter , .. " did you read my resume it details alot about me in summary. Lol 🤣
They have already read your resume/ know who you are professionally. Yourself should be more than your job. Your hobbies interests goals?
Don't assume they've read my resume. Most people only give it a quick scan. I think it is worth it to walk through some of the high points of your resume. I'd only mention hobbies if they present you as someone interesting or particularly driven. E.g. "I just hiked my 3rd 14,000ft peak" helps you sound dedicated. But, "I make costumes for my dog" just sounds weird.
I think this question is mostly looking for more personal information. I usually mention hobbies and my background growing up in a Latino household. It shows the interviewer I'm not a robot trying to sell my resume, but a human being trying to connect, has worked so far.
Here is What I would say If I was asked that question in the interview My name is Amparo Lara and I'm 21 years old and I attend New Endeavors Transition- a work training program
