1
Did you know that most interview candidates lose the job offer within the first two minutes of an interview?
2
That's right, with just one answer,
3
they may have thrown away their chances of getting that great new job.
4
This is Joe from Interview Gold.
5
In over 20 years as a career and interview coach,
6
helping thousands of candidates into top jobs,
7
I can tell you this,
8
most interviews are won or lost with the first answer they give.
9
And the first question is almost always,
10
tell me about yourself or some variation of it.
11
Stay with me because by the end of this video,
12
you'll know exactly how to answer it perfectly
13
and how to use it to your advantage to put yourself ahead of the other candidates.
14
Why this question is so important.
15
Here's what most candidates get wrong.
16
They think, tell me about yourself is just a friendly warm-up.
17
It's not.
18
This question is asked early because it gives interviewers a huge amount of information very quickly.
19
They're assessing how clearly you communicate under pressure,
20
how you structure information, whether you understand your own value and how relevant you are to the role.
21
First impressions matter and a strong answer to this one question sets the tone for the entire interview.
22
Get this right and you are well on your way to the job offer.
23
Get it wrong and you are constantly trying to recover.
24
Next let me show you what interviewers are actually listening for.
25
When an interviewer says tell me about yourself,
26
they're not asking for your life story.
27
They are asking four silent questions.
28
Who are you professionally?
29
What experience and skills do you bring?
30
What are your strengths and why should we hire you?
31
Candidates who ramble, get too personal or simply list their CV lose marks immediately.
32
You must remember that the interviewers are on your side.
33
They want you to perform well.
34
So let's look next at the most common mistakes you must avoid when answering Tell Me About Yourself.
35
Here's what I see all the time in my coaching practice.
36
Good candidates with strong experience undermining themselves by talking for too long,
37
rambling with no structure, starting with personal background,
38
just listing responsibilities instead of achievements,
39
or forgetting to explain why they want the role and how it fits with their career path.
40
None of these sound disastrous,
41
but together they blur your message.
42
And in interviews, clarity equals confidence.
43
So how do you fix this?
44
Well, you stop improvising and you start using structure.
45
So let me show you a powerful,
46
easy to remember formula that works for any interview at any level.
47
In our interview goal training we teach expert strategies to answer questions
48
and here is just one formula we suggest for answering tell me about yourself.
49
It is ICAN plus.
50
I-C-A-N plus.
51
Introduction, Career and Achievements, Attributes and skills next
52
and then plus is personal optional now this works across all sectors
53
and all levels because it mirrors how interviewers think okay let's look at each part in turn
54
so in the introduction now what is required here is a sentence
55
or two summarizing who you are professionally include your name profession,
56
qualifications, your current job title,
57
the number of years experience you're bringing and the organisations you work for.
58
This is a great opener designed to give a powerful first impression.
59
Career and achievements.
60
This is a brief high-level overview,
61
not detail, not history, just enough context to show progression and relevance.
62
Start with your most recent job and then highlight key past roles.
63
For achievements detail three key achievements giving a sentence
64
or two for each summarizing the problem you solved what you did and the successful outcome.
65
Make sure they are recent
66
and most of all relevant to the role after all you are showcasing what you can do
67
and how you will add value to the employer.
68
Attributes and skills and this is where you outline the core skills and and strengths you are bringing.
69
A top tip is to review the job description and ensure your answer includes the top three they are looking for.
70
You're quietly matching your strengths to what the role requires and also mirror the employer's language.
71
This makes it easy for them to score you.
72
Next, this is a single sentence summarising why you have applied
73
and how you see this role as the ideal next stage in your career.
74
This is important as it shows motivation and candidates who skip this often sound directionless.
75
Plus, this is optional and only if appropriate.
76
One sentence perhaps mentioning interests or hobbies,
77
keeping light and relevant, it softens the close and acts as an additional selling point.
78
I'm going to share with you a key insight that most people miss and it is all about delivery and timing.
79
Even a perfect structure can fall flat if delivery is poor.
80
So practice your answer out loud.
81
Aim for delivery that is calm, not rushed.
82
Confident, not memorized.
83
Confidence doesn't come from talent, it comes from preparation.
84
And when this answer is prepared properly, something powerful happens.
85
you start controlling the interview.
86
Okay, let's put that into practice.
87
Here is a sample answer for inspiration.
88
My name is Jenny Smith
89
and I'm a qualified team leader with six years experience working within a customer services environment in the finance sector.
90
For the past four years,
91
I have been managing a team of 15 agents with NatWest Bank in the business banking division.
92
In my current role as team leader,
93
I recruit, train, develop and manage the team that provides telephone and online support seven days a week.
94
I consistently meet service level targets and key performance indicators set by the company.
95
I successfully respond to escalated complaints or service issues from my team,
96
as well as monitoring, reviewing and reporting on customer satisfaction levels.
97
So my key achievements include being promoted from customer services representative to team leader at HSBC after only two years,
98
delivering a 25% improvement on our customer satisfaction survey over a 12-month period
99
and an increase in our call answer rates of 15% for the past year when compared to the previous year.
100
My team also received a special customer services award at our company's AGM this year.
101
My core strengths include excellent team building skills,
102
as evidenced by the achievement of a reduction in staff turnover in my team by 20% year on year.
103
I am an excellent communicator,
104
equally able to deal with customers,
105
manage staff and report to management.
106
I can negotiate successfully and in my last appraisal my manager praised my ability to plan and organize effectively.
107
My experience over the last five years it's taught me how to improve customer service levels
108
and I see this role as a great opportunity for me to leverage this experience while managing a much larger team.
109
It's an exciting challenge for me
110
and of course working within a bank such as yours would be an ideal career move for me.
111
Outside work I am part of a local theatre group.
112
I'm the production coordinator which is quite a challenge but really enjoyable.
113
I like to keep fit too and of course I enjoy spending time with friends and family.
114
As you can see the candidate uses correct structure clearly outlining who they are,
115
what they have done, what they bring and why they should get the job.
116
I I am often asked how long should the answer be to the tell me about yourself interview question.
117
There is no set length,
118
however I usually say for entry level posts aim for between 1-2 minutes
119
and for senior posts I would look for 2-3 minutes, perhaps more.
120
If you struggle with this or indeed any interview question,
121
check out the Interview Gold Answer Builder, see the links below.
122
It creates brilliant answers in minutes and they are perfect for any application or interview.
123
So here is a top tip that will boost your chances.
124
Finish your answer with a question to the panel.
125
For example, ask them if they would like you to give more detail on any aspect of your answer.
126
What you are doing with this strategy is creating a two-way conversation,
127
a very powerful way to build rapport.
128
Okay, that brings me to my final point.
129
Here's the truth.
130
Most candidates aren't missing experience, they're missing structure.
131
And once you fix that, everything else becomes easier.
132
The follow up questions, the behaviour examples, even your confidence.
133
So if interviews have felt frustrating for you or if you've come close but not quite got the offer,
134
this is what you start fixing.
135
In the next video here,
136
I'll show you how to deal with the top three mistakes people make when answering this question.

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.
