When answering "Tell me about yourself," start with a concise introduction that highlights your professional background and key strengths. Focus on relevant experiences and skills that align with the role you're applying for, avoiding unnecessary personal details. Structure your response to show progression—mention your career journey, accomplishments, and what motivates you. Wrap up with a strong connection to the company or position, explaining why you’re excited about the opportunity. Keep it confident, clear, and engaging, ensuring you leave a memorable impression on the interviewer.
