"Tell Me About Yourself?

While this may sound like an open-ended question that you can answer however you like, don't let its simplicity fool you into disclosures that are too casual and personal. The interviewer is trying to get a sense of what kind of person you are and what you value to determine your level of professionalism and how well you would fit on the team.

How to Answer "Tell Me About Yourself" You might start by focusing on who you are as a professional, since this is a job interview, after all. Tell a bit about your educational and career background and some key facts about your job history. While it's OK (and perhaps expected) to share something that's a little bit personal and unique to you, be careful about what exactly you reveal here. Think in terms of sharing one of your key hobbies or interests outside of work – for example, playing volleyball, cooking or volunteering. Be cautious about revealing details about your age or family status that some employers may be unintentionally biased against. #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions

"Interview Question”

What Professional Achievement Are You Most Proud Of? While you may actually consider saving someone's life as a lifeguard in high school to be your proudest moment on the job, don't take this question literally unless you are actually interviewing to be a lifeguard.

How to Answer "What Professional Achievement Are You Most Proud Of?" The correct approach to describing your greatest professional achievement is to hone in on the position that you're applying for and find a relevant experience in your past career arsenal to showcase something that the hiring manager would hope to find in an employee. An equally smart strategy is to focus on a general accomplishment that would impress any employer, such as creating a tactic to increase your department's productivity. #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions
