I’ve got a job interview on Tuesday and I haven’t had one for a while due to a period of unemployment because of family health issues.

One part of interviews I’ve always struggled with is when they first ask you to tell them about yourself. I struggle to talk about myself anyway and never know what they’d like me to actually say, whether it’s about me as a person or about my work history.

So any tips or tricks would be welcome.

      This is even better if you weren’t born until far after 1979.

        “Picture it, Sicily, 1912…” “Now erase that completely from your mind, and picture Gary, Indiana, 2023. You’re right, that’s me.”
