TIME MANAGEMENT. and you'll never regret....

hmmm the thread is going in the wrong direction.

Okay, for a "Tell me about yourself" question during job interviews, the thing to do is to NOT talk about your family, hobbies, favorites, and other personal details. You should go straight to the point--how you will benefit the company. Say something like, "I know that your company is going bankrupt and is asking for government bailout, but you know what, whatever my hand touches turns into gold so I am the solution to your problem!" Something like that, okay? okay.

(you can also try my loyalty response above...use at your own risk lol)

so there is no need for me to tell them my life story when ask this question?

How do you answer this question in a job interview?

focus on telling your strengths..... and why should they hire you...

well if you can't resist telling them your life story then go ahead but always answer the hidden question "what value will you bring to the company?"

examples
1. I was born and raised in the town of xxx and was elected SK chairman blah blah - translate into how the company will benefit from that, so you might say, "I know all the people in this province and they just love and adore me, so any product I will present them they will buy." (You are applying for a sales position.)

2. I am the eldest in a family of 8...- translate --> I've always been very independent and responsible...you need people like that, don't you? (position calls for such traits)

Og pakapinan jud permi og, "Your business is my business." <-- winning answer jud kuno ni, matud pa sa usa ka co-worker hehe

The course that i digged 4 years is the best example of how i managed to finish on time with unquestionable skills and performance.

im the one and only

[hobie]

I'm a person with a drive for work, learning and efficiency. I believe that work is a way of life in today s generation and that life is continuous process of learning. Efficiency in anything I do is what I try to achieve everyday. This in turn would be of benefit to the company and to myself also. It's a give and take process as we speak of.
