This is a golden opportunity for you to set yourself apart from
the other candidates.
“Tell me something that will matter to me as I consider you
for this job.”
Put Yourself in That Hiring Manager’s Shoes
• What is the hiring manager going to be the most impressed by?
• What is going to get the hiring manager’s attention?
Start with Your EducationThen Go Into Your Background
“I received a degree in X from Y University. From there, I took my first role as an ABC in XYZ company. I progressed there in
receiving two X awards / promotions, and then was recruited by XYZ’s competition for another role, where again, I achieved 2
more X and was recognized for X, which led me to you.”
This is the general language you should use to tell your story.
Plan Your Answer in Advance
Tailor Your Answer Before You Give It
That’s what being strategic in the interview is all about.
What parts of my story would be on this hiring manager’s list
of reasons to hire me?
You don’t need to talk longer than a minute or so—just deliver a very targeted message that says to
that hiring manager: “I am skilled, I have accomplished some great things, and I can bring
that to work here for you.”
