Tell me about yourself..
You’ve practiced the perfect response.
But when interviewing, you’ll most likely:
— Flood them with details
— Fail to make your point
— Confuse them
— Lose them
Not the right way, my friend.
Here’s a better way:
Break your career into chapters.
Follow this 4 part story recipe for each one.
Share your motivations
↳ and what you deeply desired
Share your challenges
↳ discoveries and learning lessons
Share a defining moment
↳ that inspired you to change your desires
Share a resolution
↳ that helped support a change in direction
Yep, this is STORY, not STAR METHOD
Never fumble “Tell me about you” again.
