Almost every interview has a version of the request, “Tell Me About Yourself.” People often have trouble articulating their journey and how it has made them a great employee. After my recent experiences having to answer it myself innumerable times as well as mentoring others at all career levels, I have developed tips for turning vague stories into a polished pitch. As a software engineer who went to art school, it’s critical that I articulate my skills clearly before I am dismissed by technical recruiters. This workshop starts with a presentation, but then quickly becomes interactive. I start with a warm-up question, then ask for a volunteer to tell their story. I give direct feedback which helps everyone absorb the main points by connecting it with the live example.
