One of the most dreaded interview questions of all time is: “Tell me about yourself.”
Do you draw a blank? Ramble on while you try and find a compelling answer on the fly? Talk way too long about things that probably don’t matter all that much? Stop talking and wonder what you just said? If so, you are not alone. Most of us have been there. This question can lead to excruciating, awkward answers.
