    Introducing yourself in a job interview is tough stuff! Ever have difficulty with this? How much to say? How little? Where to start? When to stop? It IS important for you to nail this Goldilocks-style. And, the reason introducing yourself is difficult is because it’s SO NOT about how well you know yourself. It’s actually about how well you know the person you’re introducing yourself to!
    How you introduce yourself in a job interview is the “tweener” between my one-sentence elevator pitch (video here: • How to Describe Yourse... ) and the full-blown “walk me through your résumé.” (video here: • Walk Me Through Your R... )
    If you have one minute, what do you say during that one minute? After you take in this video, you'll know exactly how to nail your intro!

    I’m preparing for an interview. I totally revamped what I was going to say in my introduction. While I already submitted an introduction last week as part of a larger presentation, I’ll start with the verbiage consistent with your model and pull in the text from the slide in the “as you can see fro my resume section”. It will be a MUCH more impactful and relatable opening. Thank you

    Thank you! I'm getting ready for an internal interview, that is only 30 min because there are over 20 candidates. The hiring manager has interviewed me before (where he was not the hiring manager), and so I was looking for something different to clearly tell my story in 2 minutes or less, and set me a part. And as a bonus show him I have improved my interview skills.

    Great video as always Andy. You are really doing a noble cause. I got 5-6 interviews in march-april but couldn't make it. Went thru some of your videos and reached out to them thanking for their time and stating why I believe I'm a great candidate and would be available to provide additional consideration if there is a role in their team or organization. Most of them replied saying thanks and they will let me know and keep in mind. Should I do anything now. Plz advise

    How would you do this if you are interviewing for a change of career path? Most my experience is childcare, but looking to get out of that field. Would I still Introduce myself as an early childhood educator even if that's not the job position?

    • @andylacivita
      @andylacivita  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      How you intro yourself should be more about where you’re going than where you’ve been. Are there elements of your background that apply going forward. Do you want to try to neutralize the terminology if you can. For example, if you are going towards some thing where you will continue to be training, educating, teaching or some thing of that elk, you would lean on skills you gained through education in childcare.
