Interviews can be very stressful for many of us. Knowing how to answer questions like ‘Tell us about yourself or Introduce yourself’ can help reorient yourself into the interview environment and organise your thoughts. This allows you to sell yourself in the best way that wins the hearts of the interviewers or recruiters and makes a first impression on them.
In a self-introduction during interviews, start by thanking the interview panel for the opportunity, then state your name and job title. You can expand your answer by sharing your current projects, skills or experience and how they relate to the job.
In addition, talk about your background, including your education, past projects, employers and achievements, making sure you relate them to the job you are applying for.
In your closing statement, highlight the reason you are applying for the job and how the job matches your future goals. Finish with “Thank you, that’s all about me”
Don’t forget to keep your answers brief and talk with some excitement when answering the questions. Keep your focus on those interviewing you and listen to questions carefully.
