Tell Me About Yourself - Structure a Strong Answer

chatGPT answers

I used this method for an interview that I had back in March for a Quality Engineering position. I got hired about a month later all glory to God 🙏🏾.

Hi Jeff, are you still running that Facebook group? I cant seem to find the link

This structure is legit. I felt it was too lengthy while I was practicing it, but gave it a shot during an interview and it was not long at all. I even got some kudos from the interviewers on the highlight and got moved on to the next round! Seriously, thanks so much for all your resume and interview info. I've been job searching for months now and felt instantly more confident using all the tools you provided, like the chatGPT for job search resource.

I am a product manager not working right now. In fact, i only had 2 short contracts where i didn’t gained much experience. I’ve been in many interviews for the last 2 years and haven’t been able to land a full time. I need help

your channel is really helpful thank you

Dude, Jeff. You are awesome

Your vides are super valuable authentic! Keep up the great work.

Haha you are always merry and bright. really appreciate the effort you put into making these perfectly crisp, knowledge dense videos. i'd totally hire you to get me hired for my next job🤣

i love how this is structured! the time stamps, conciseness, and written slides help my ADHD brain understand this so well!

This is so good! Good job Jeff!

I just found your videos today and getting so engaged. So informative, interesting and very well put together! your editing skills are awesome.

Thanks Jeff, super helpful!

What about your own personality? I don't feel this structure really applies my personality and it seems very robotic.

What people miss is that in many places, people who have done less than you in their career will get to judge you and throw away every meritocracy. Love your videos btw, nothing to do with my little rant there XD.

I feel like the meat of the answer could have been 1/3 the time. Much of it seemed like fluff and knowing that the interviewer could not verify if what you are saying is true.

very helpful

A magical video from Jeff Su. I can't thank you enough!

I am curious why you end with "this is why I would be a great asset to this company" It feels strange to make this comment at the beginning of the interview. Is this a common practice? Thanks for the helpful tips by the way! Your videos are great!!

Many thanks Jeff,I used your method in my favourite company's interview in April 2023. And now I am sucess join the company in June 2023.谢谢你😊

This is soo good Thank you

Informative.

:)

hanks! I'm super anxious about my interviews tomorrow I scheduled two in one day and thought I might get drained but this advice alongside others gives me a lot more confidence.

Perfect answers if you're going to apply as a scientist in NASA.

awesome video! Thank you!

Donde sacas los efectos de sonidos, saludos..

What happens when you have no employment history

Great info and insights! I'm actually preparing for an interview for a job I really want!!! I have one question, hope Jeff or someone here can help me. If I'm not working at the moment, what should I include in the present section?

Your way of speaking is so unnatural. If I were interviewing someone and they started speaking like they were reading a script, it would immediately turn me off. You sound like a robot, not a person.

No one talks like this. Lol.

Wow, just watched this video for the first time. I have always struggled with the "tell me about yourself" piece, not for interviews, but when I'm invited to present at a conference or even at networking events. Thank your for the video.

I’m back here 💀

Hi Jeff - I love this format. Thank you for breaking down the structure, and the rationale behind it, and providing a comprehensive example. I have a question regarding your structure. What if I am currently unemployed and have been for a few months? How do you suggest someone use this structure if they are in such a situation?

Hey Jeff, I landed two job offers after watching your videos, first offer came in 1 week, second one came in 3 weeks after watching your videos. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for this video

You are a life saver

Hey Jeff, thank you for your wonderful tips! May I ask if do you have any tips for handling the anxiety prior the job interview? Tomorrow I will have my first interview after applying for many months, and it's making me really anxious, even if I have already prepared my answers (thanks for your help by the way!). Do you have any exercises or rituals to shake your nervousness when you were in my position way back before? Thanks so much!

One of the best videos I have seen so far. I cannot wait to work on these points and prepare for my interview.

Thank you for this video, Jeff! I was LOLing about the time when, during an interview, I literally ended up talking about the place I grew up in and when I did musical theater in college. So irrelevant to the interview! I was super nervous, but I will be more prepared next time, I hope.

The most informative answer to this question

Well done, Jeff. I am impressed with your knowledge. You are an excellent speaker. Cheers

This is great!

I was told everywhere that you should start first by introducing yourself with name, from which city you belong, what courses I have done as I m a fresher with no experience how I landed in this industry, and what my hobbies and interests other than this profession because you are telling about yourself now I m really confused though I liked your structure very much but now confused

What if you’re currently unemployed and actively seeking job opportunities 😕
