FROM INTRODUCTION TO IMPRESSION: DECODING ‘TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF’

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.
