  • this is one of the most common questions that you have to prepare for

  • if you want to know how to answer this question, just keep on watching

  • this question is very very common

  • I show you now the most common mistakes when people answered this question

  • "Hi my name is Kaykrizz. I am from a broken family.

  • My father left us when we were young and my mother died.

  • Basically I'm an orphan and I don't know, I really need this job right now."

  • In college, I have always been a Dean's Lister and graduated as Summa Cum Laude in our University."

  • "Hi, my name is Kaykrizz and about myself?

  • What can I tell you, actually I love doing selfies.

  • I believe that one day I will become a internet sensation.

  • Maybe one day I would also own my own boat.

  • Oh my god, I love sailing!

  • During my free time, did I say I do social media

  • Yeah, i'm obsessed about my Instagram theme, it's one of the things that occupies most of my time :D"

  • "Hi my name is Kaykrizz. I am 29 years old.

  • I have graduated the course of Bachelor of Science in Nursing.

  • I also am a registered nurse. I passed the board exam in 2012.

  • and what else I could say, that I am an active part of our church,

  • I do the readings every single Sunday, first reading, second reading i do it all, except for the homeless.

  • Have exaggerated some of the answers, examples that I have shown you.

  • it is funny, I'm sorry but yeah

  • Being asked this question can somehow be a treat for us because let's face it we are always

  • happy to tell people about ourselves but in a job interview situation

  • you don't want to tell the recruiter about who you are in high school, who you are in college

  • who you are in your church, what is your family problem or perhaps maybe you need a psychologist or counselor

  • just keep those things out of the conversation and be professional just keep in mind that the recruiters

  • are looking for someone that they want to place in a company,

  • which the company has different set of values preferences

  • or a specific person they are looking for, so position yourself.

  • When you introduce yourself, position yourself as someone that could match what they are looking for.

  • Best way is to focus on 3 concrete skills, examples or achievements you want to attach to yourself.

  • Focus on that. First of all, of course you will have to give an introduction.

  • Give your name, your age, where you're from and then focus on these three things that

  • way you don't bombard the recruiter with too much information #TMI.

  • you don't bombard them with TMI, but then you leave a lasting impression of who you are

  • It's important that you practice the answer to this question

  • not just because that you don't want to be real or don't want to be untrue

  • of course what you're saying is true it's nice that you have it ready, a ready question

  • because anywhere any interview this question will be surely ask of you

  • and it gives pleasure to the recruiter to see that this person has prepared for the answer

  • versus to someone who's saying

  • "Ummm about myself um wait wait.. I have a pet.. um um um um..."

  • People who does this, they come across as unprepared meaning not interested in the job.

  • It is really nice to have a prepared answer to this question.

  • The only key is to make it as balanced as possible, make it as spontaneous as you can

  • when you try to say the answer and don't be like robotic, too rehearsed when saying the answer to this question

  • Let's go on how I will answer this question

  • Let's put a timer on the clock coz it is best that you answer this question in 60 seconds or less

  • to have the best possible impact. Let's do it!

  • "Hi! My name is Kaykrizz, 29 years old from Cebu City.

  • I could say that I have a passion for customer service

  • because in my two years experience in working for a call center as a customer service representative

  • they have really honed my skills and I learned to love our specialty

  • which is trading a customer's frown into a smile.

  • I could say that I am equipped with the skills on how to handle different complaints from people.

  • I could also say that I am one of those people who are really loving to work with people.

  • That means I'm a people person so I love working
