1
You walk into the interview room, and the QA manager gives you a smile and says, So, tell me about yourself.
2
And at that moment, a lot of people freeze. But here's the thing.
3
This is the best chance you've got to make an impression.
4
I'll show you how to own this question and turn it into the strongest asset.
5
So, stick with me, and I'll walk you through it.
6
When I started out as the QA engineer, I had no idea how to answer this question.
7
I would start rambling, lose focus, and by the time I finished, I wasn't even sure where did I get started.
8
But once I figured out the formula, it became my go-to tool.
9
Now, as the senior manager of NSVET, I've interviewed and hired dozens of people.
10
And trust me, nailing this answer can set you apart from the crowd.
11
But here's why this question is so important and why any viewers ask this at the first place.
12
But before we get into it, I wanted to share something exciting for you.
13
As a lot of people don't want to spend thousands of dollars on courses that take a while,
14
I've developed a one-week introduction course into software testing for the price of a dinner.
15
And I'm going to mentor you personally and give you a whole week of the practical internship in a US-based startup.
16

17
Let's continue.
18
Why do they ask this question?
19
Well, after 10 years in tech and hiring many of QA engineers, I can tell you this, it's an icebreaker that tells a lot about you.
20
We want to know how well you communicate.
21
As an interviewer, we want to know how structured your thinking is, and most importantly, your personality.
22
The truth is, skills matter.
23
But the cultural fit is what gets you hired in 70% of the cases as we're all human
24
and we want to work with the people and enjoy being around.
25
And here's the kicker.
26
Most interviewers make a decision within first 10 seconds.
27
So, this question is your chance to make an impression fast.
28
Oh, did you hit that like button below?
29
I think you forgot to do that.
30
Make sure to do it right now.
31
And also, follow links to Instagram and Telegram communities, where you can find many more updates that I can legally share on YouTube.
32
Now, did you know why they ask this question?
33
Let's talk about how to answer it.
34
And the very first thing you need to get right is length.
35
Let me tell you what I've learned within 10 years of my experience of trials and errors.
36
How long should your answer be?
37
You've probably heard a ton of different takes on this, but here's the deal.
38
There is no magic pill at all.
39
My personal rule of thumb is keep it under 90 seconds.
40
That's 1 minute and 30 seconds.
41
Trust me, any longer and you risk losing their attention.
42
But here's the best part.
43
Within 90 seconds, you can say everything needed.
44
And that's enough to be memorable.
45
Alright, now that you know an ideal length, but how do you actually structure your answer?
46
Here's the formula that works every time.
47
It's simple, focus on two things, the present and the future.
48
And you know what?
49
Let me break it down for you as I would be a QA engineer with three years of experience.
50
So here we go.
51
I'm a QA engineer with three years of experience.
52
Currently, I work for a company called Codemify, leading QA bootcamp that helps people transition into tech from scratch.
53
I'm the only QA engineer in the company, managing everything from creating test documentation to setting up test automation frameworks completely from scratch,
54
which by the way have helped our team to decrease regression testing time by 30%.
55
I worked on both front-end and back-end testing using different tools such as
56
Jira for the bug tracking system and a project management system, Postman and Swagger for API testing and API documentation, TestRail for the test case management system,
57
Cypress for UI and API automation, and GitHub Actions for CI, CD.
58
And now let me add a little bit of the future on the top.
59
So looking ahead, I'm excited to continue growth in the field as automation
60
and AI becoming more integrated into the world of QA.
61
I'm passionate about working in teams that embrace innovation and efficiency, as I am an engineer, by the way.
62
See how easy it is?
63
And the best part is, this formula works no matter how long you've been on the field for, if you're a newbie or if you've got 10 years of experience so far.
64
Alright, now it is your turn.
65
Take five minutes of your time and write down your answer using this structure.
66
Your present and your future.
67
Drop your answer in a comment below this video, and I'll personally review a few of them.
68
And trust me, the more you practice this, the sharper you will get.
69
And when you answer this question, don't just focus on technical skills.
70
highlight your soft skills.
71
Tell them how you work with teams, your approach on problem solving.
72
These are the qualities that show interviewers you're someone that they want on their team.
73
And for example, I always mention how my testing approach helped my team to reduce testing time by 30%.
74
And it is these details that actually make you stand out from the crowd.
75
And lastly, remember, this is your moment to shy.
76
Keep your answers focused, stay confident, and practice until it feels natural.
77
In our bootcamp, our students go through up to 132 rounds of interview preparation,
78
which is up to 6 rounds every single week of education.
79
Imagine how much confidence you can gain from that.
80
By the way, if you guys are interested in learning more, I'm going to leave a link for the one week of introduction into world of QA.
81
Alrighty, you have a good one and I'll see you next time.
82
Thank you.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
