Tell Me About Yourself?

Flip this question around and make IT work for YOU!
Treat this first interview question as an opportunity to get to know your “client” (i.e. the interviewer) and understand what they are looking for.

“Tell me a little bit about yourself” is your chance to get to know exactly what makes a successful candidate, and then target all of your following answers with that skill set in mind. This not only makes your discussion standout, but instantly shows that you are thoughtful and have strategy.

Don’t let this question be a throwaway!
