A GOOD ANSWER to the Interview Question: TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF:
“Thank you very much for inviting me to be interviewed for this position today. I have applied for this job because I believe the skills, qualities and experience I have are a strong match for the job description.
Over the years, I have built up lots of skills and qualities that I believe will be of benefit to your organization. I am a very strong team worker and I understand that in order to achieve difficult projects and tasks, you must work with other people, and you must bring in their skills and their experiences.

I am also very good at working under pressure and I actually prefer to be in situations where the pressure is on because I believe this is where I am at my best. I am also very good at building up relationships with clients and customers, and I feel this will benefit your organization from a commercial perspective.

Highlights of my career include, in particular, in my last role, I was praised by my manager for working as part of a team that managed to increase company sales by twenty-five percent. So, I am very focused on achieving difficult tasks and projects that are aligned to your strategic objectives.
I am the type of person who will work hard, I will never let you down, and I will always act as a positive role model when dealing with your customers and clients. If you hire me in this position, you will quickly see a positive return on your investment.”

Hi Rich,

I am baffled by this one. It might seem to me that this answer will perfectly suit the question why should I hire you?

Second sentence is not clear. It says you must work with other people and you must bring in their skills. Does you mean interviewer?

Hi Richard, I have an upcoming final interview for an Associate Data Manager role within a big FMCG organization this week. The final interview means it will be with Senior HR Business Partner, however it's a 30 minute session. I'm of course not disagreeing with your above brilliant answer, however do you think is it too detailed for half and hour slot or still good to follow the above script (in full)? I'll be looking forward to your response in your earliest convenience. Thanks

TOP 10 MOST COMMON INTERVIEW QUESTIONS & ANSWERS! (PASS YOUR INTERVIEW!)

TOP 10 MOST COMMON INTERVIEW QUESTIONS & ANSWERS! (PASS YOUR INTERVIEW!) HOW TO ANSWER TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF https://youtu.be/W2_08tLMmyI?si=KRbZ-6CUG4H2p1sp #jobinterview #interviewquestions #interviewpreparation #speakconfidentenglish
If you want to impress in your job interview, stay tuned. I will reveal the top 10 most common interview questions all hiring managers and employers use to assess a candidate’s suitability for the role – these 10 questions are straight out of the hiring managers’ playbook! In addition to revealing the 10 interview questions, I will give you the top-scoring answers.

My name is Richard McMunn, and I have been a hiring manager and recruitment expert for more than 30 years – tell me the name of the role you are applying for in the comments section below this video, and I will give you some extra tips. Please also subscribe and hit the LIKE button. I appreciate your support!

OK, let’s get started. Please take notes:

INTERVIEW QUESTION 1 – Introduce Yourself 00:57
Keep your introduction to approximately 60 seconds. Keep it professional and talk about the skills and qualities you have and how you can add value in the role.

INTERVIEW QUESTION NUMBER 2 – WHY DO YOU WANT THIS JOB? 01:58
I recommend you say you want the job for two reasons. The role aligns with your skills and passion, and your research tells you the company is forward-thinking, innovative and supports employees so they can reach their full potential.

INTERVIEW QUESTION 3 – WHAT ARE YOUR GREATEST STRENGTHS? 03:00
The most effective way to answer this next question is to match your strengths with the job description – read the job description before your interview, because it will give you an advantage over the other candidates.

INTERVIEW QUESTION 4 – WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST WEAKNESS? 04:13
Do not say you don’t have any weaknesses or that your weakness is that you are a perfectionist. This tough question assesses honesty and self-awareness. We all have weaknesses. There are several weaknesses you can give that are safe – impatience, struggling to say NO to people, which means you can overcommit.

INTERVIEW QUESTION 5 – HOW WOULD YOU HANDLE A CONFLICT WITH A CO-WORKER? 05:13
This question assesses accountability and collaboration skills – your ability to work with anyone in your team regardless of differences. DO NOT say you would ignore the conflict or tell your manager about it, unless you have tried everything you can to resolve it first. Here is a top-scoring answer:

INTERVIEW QUESTION 6 – WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN FIVE YEARS? 06:39
Many candidates fail their interview because they either say they don’t know where they’ll be in five years or they say they have plans to be working elsewhere. Remember this: It takes a lot of time, effort and resources to find a suitable candidate for a job role. Therefore, the hiring manager ideally wants someone who would like to build a long-term career at their company.

INTERVIEW QUESTION 7 – WHY SHOULD WE HIRE YOU? 07:51
The hiring manager is going to use your answer and the answers of all the other candidates to determine which one can add the most value. I recommend you give 3 reasons why they should hire you. Here they are in my brilliant, top-scoring answer:

INTERVIEW QUESTION 8 – WHY DO YOU WANT TO LEAVE YOUR CURRENT COMPANY? 09:02 Whatever you do, do not be negative or disrespectful about your current or former employer, co-workers or manager. Be professional in your answer – the best reasons for wanting to leave a new job include:

Career Growth
“I’m looking for opportunities to develop my skills and progress to the next level in my career.”

A New Challenge
“I’m ready for a fresh challenge where I can take on more responsibility and make a greater impact.”

Better Alignment
“I want to work in a role and organisation that better aligns with my skills, long-term goals and values.”

INTERVIEW QUESTION 9 – WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR IN YOUR NEXT JOB? 10:31
Do not say you are looking for fun, a great salary or generous benefits and time off. The question is being asked to determine if what you are looking for aligns with the company’s culture and values.

INTERVIEW QUESTION 10 – THAT’S THE END OF THE INTERVIEW. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? 11:23
If you get the opportunity to ask questions, it’s a positive sign they are considering offering you the job – don’t waste the opportunity by asking foolish questions. Instead, ask questions that further demonstrate your passion for the role.
