The One Question You Know You’ll Be Asked
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
The one question you know you’ll be asked at interview is, “Tell me about yourself.”
You’ve already given them a copy of your resume and you wonder why they now want you to repeat what you’ve written. You wonder why and often people stumble for an answer.
There’s a good article about this at Link Me (you probably have to register to read it, I’m not sure.) that discusses this issue.
It’s largely about having a prepared and practised speil that you can use, something like a long elevator speech. On Monday I’ll give you some information about elevator speeches … ok?
In the mean time, go to LinkMe and read their short article.
