Lots of questions can pop up in a job interview. No. 1 most dreaded may be this deceptively simple probe: “Tell me about yourself.” Some job seekers view it as the “killer” question.
Few questions put an interviewee on the spot quite like this one. If it’s the first question asked and a candidate handles it poorly, the entire interview can go south. If the candidate handles it well, the strong, positive first impression can boost the entire interview.
How should you handle this open-ended query? It’s important to understand that this is not the time to introduce yourself as you might at a party. Information regarding pets, favorite songs and celebrities is not what you want to talk about. An effective answer should relate to your accomplishments, skills, qualities and problems you’ve solved.
