Tell Me About Yourself - Experienced candidates sample answer

4 Essential Tips on Answering “Tell Me About Yourself”
1) Keep It Professional and Brief
When answering, try to keep it under 1-2 minutes, at most.
No, the HR manager doesn’t want to know your entire life story.
2) Practice, But Don’t Memorize
You’re bound to hear “tell me about yourself” on just about every interview.
So, all you have to do is practice your answer a bit!
Grab a friend and do a quick mock interview.
3) Know Your Audience
Or, know thy interviewer.
It’s important to keep in mind who you’re talking to.
Is it the HR? Business manager? The hiring manager? The CTO? CMO? CEO?
You might be wondering, why does this matter?
Well, the thing is, each of these people expect a different answer.
4) Remember W.A.P. (Work, Academic, Personal)
Every good answer to “tell me about yourself” should consist of:
Work - This should make up about 80% of your answer. Focus on your previous experience and accomplishments here.
Academic - 10-15% of your answer should then be about your academic background (university, academic achievements, etc.
Personal - Finally the last 5-10% should be about you as a person, while still keeping it relevant to the company.
Happy interview ❤️
