Introductions – Good Impressions

Most interviews begin with the interviewer asking for a brief introduction about yourself. It has to be short and intelligent enough to give them an overall look at you as a person for your aptitude and skills have already been tested with the pre-employment/screening exams. Though a few short sentences, the overall content should be informative and smart allowing you to establish good rapport with the people interviewing you.
The overall structure of the short introduction should contain enough information about you your work experience and end with a statement why you should be hired as part of the team. Experience is on your resume so elaborate little for follow-up questions would be asked of if necessary. The rapport will allow you to overcome the fear/jitters early on so you tame those butterflies in your stomach early. Don’t worry too much, if it ain’t for you then move on to the next one.
