🎯 My free Job Search Toolkit: https://academy.jeffsu.org/job-search-toolkit?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=012 My Premium Resume Package: https://jeffsu.gumroad.com/l/premium-resume-package 📖 Teal - https://get.tealhq.com/jeffsu The “Tell me about yourself” question is by far the most important question to get right because not only will it set the tone for the rest of the interview, but also you will get a huge confidence boost right at the beginning if start off correctly. Too often candidates tell their life stories when answering “Tell me about yourself” even when that’s going to bore the interviewer at best, and work against you at worst. This video is about how to easily answer the interview question: Tell Me About Yourself. Here, I teach you the simple steps to structure a strong answer to this common interview question. I skip over all the other more “common advice” you might find in other videos and jump right into (1) The Present, Past, and Future answer structure, (2) The Highlight Method, and (3) Providing a sample answers and examples that have worked for me and many co-workers here at Google. So whether you are a fresher / fresh grad looking for a sample answer, or an experienced professional looking for an answer structure, this video is a great resource. You will learn how to apply the concepts here and also avoid common mistakes others make when answering “tell me about yourself.” This is a must watch before your next interview, good luck!
