About

I help jobseekers, entrepreneurs, and business owners. I am a practicing management consultant, former CEO, and entrepreneur. I have taught business at the post-graduate level, mentored startup founders, and worked across five industries (in both large and small businesses). The BEST WAY TO CONTACT ME with questions is via my weekly interactive live streams on this channel. Email is not the way. Unfortunately, I do not provide 1-on-1 coaching for jobseekers. I do have courses that can help, though. - Bill "The Companies Expert"

Video Description

In this video, I give the best answer to the job interview question "tell me about yourself". This is the best way I've ever seen to answer the "tell me about yourself" interview question. I also give a sample example answer to this question. This is applicable to both a fresh graduate, as well as a professional with years of experience. ***My GET HIRED Course*** https://the-companies-expert-academy.teachable.com (More Details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M10b3yiM11M&list=PLO4kDC0EWkeCqHTWtVlHsMQyYSes7hMCD&index=23&t=0s) ***My $100 MBA Course*** https://thecompaniesexpertacademy.thinkific.com (More Details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpNnCAiHzUM&list=PLO4kDC0EWkeACZ6RzI-9sV_sHJgWHbIFV&index=4&t=0s) ***My WRITE LIKE A PROFESSIONAL Course*** https://thecompaniesexpert.podia.com/ (More Details: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2spmXDOpDG0&list=PLO4kDC0EWkeCafvO6c8tOtQSAfW4zEAFu&index=46&t=0s) My GET HIRED Series of Videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLO4kDC0EWkeCnf8PBRk7XDPhrzmAxHLah My Other YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1eherjPft_PWmzyVJ8jSDQ My Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheCompaniesExpert Consulting Services for Business Clients: http://www.TheCompaniesExpert.com My Twitter: https://twitter.com/Companiesexpert My Facebook Page: http://fb.me/TheCompaniesExpert My "GET HIRED" Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/GetHiredTheCompaniesExpert/ My "ENTREPRENEUR SUCCESS" Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2477916579200306/ Tell Me About Yourself | Best Answer (from former CEO): This is my first video in my series on Getting Hired. I will be exploring all the common job interview questions, including "tell me about yourself" - the most common job interview question - usually used as the icebreaker at the beginning of every job interview. Please see the other videos in my "Get Hired" playlist for more tips. One of the most common interview questions, there are many forms of this question: Tell me about yourself. Tell me something about yourself. Read more about Job Interviews: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job_interview There is a big difference between what you learn in business school, and what you need to know in the real world – just ask any startup founder or business owner! My goal is to focus on the real-world aspects of business, giving practical tips and tricks that are not usually covered in school. This channel is a platform to help entrepreneurs and business owners succeed. It is also to help the world at large to be more effective and successful. The world can certainly use more inspiring leaders, more successful entrepreneurs, and more capable managers - that is what I would like to help bring about. Who Am I? I am a practicing management consultant, former CEO, and entrepreneur. I have led many businesses to success, as well as several startups. Among other things, I have a master's degree in finance. I have worked across five industries, and have worked in both large enterprise and small businesses. In the last five years, I have also been mentoring startup founders and teaching business at a post-graduate level. Why I Want To Involve My Community: The only way this channel will succeed is with YOUR help. In order to know how best to proceed, I need constant feedback from YOU. What topics should I cover? What challenges are you facing? What questions do you have? What changes should I make? Please contact me with questions, and I will try my best to help. Best of luck! Why I Need Your Help: It is also very important to me that this channel be financially independent, and not be sustained by corporate sponsors. That way, I can be objective and honest, without having to serve interested parties, or disguise promotions as “advice”. My professional reputation is very important to me. I will invest the money raised back into the video making process. Your support will allow me to continue producing videos on a regular basis, and with increasing quality and usefulness. Thank you for being here and reading this, and have yourself an amazing day! -Bill "The Companies Expert" #jobinterview #jobinterviewquestions #interviewquestionsandanswers
