Interview question tell me about yourself?
3
What’s the hardest you’ve ever bombed an interview? I once answered a behavioral question so badly the interviewer started helping me formulate my own example halfway through (humanitarian effort on his part, I guess). They rejected me in under 30 minutes. Pretty sure they hit ‘send’ before I reached the elevator, LOL.
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
