Who are you?

Talking about yourself

1. “I am passionate about my work. Because I love what I do, I have a steady source
of motivation that drives me to do my best. In my last job, this passion led me to
challenge myself daily and learn new skills that helped me to do better work. For
example, I taught myself how to use Photoshop to improve the quality of our
photos and graphics. I soon became the go-to person for any design needs.”

2. “I’m a people-person. I love meeting new people and learning about their lives and
their backgrounds. I can almost always find common ground with strangers, and I
like making people feel comfortable in my presence. I find this skill is especially
helpful when kicking off projects with new clients. In my previous job, my clients’
customer satisfaction scores were 15% over the company average.”

3. “I’m a natural leader. I’ve eventually been promoted to a leadership role in almost
every job because I like to help people. I find co-workers usually come to me with
questions or concerns even when I’m not in a leadership role because if I don’t
know the answer, I’ll at least point them in the right direction. In my last two roles,
I was promoted to leadership positions after less than a year with the company.”

4. “I am results-oriented, constantly checking in with the goal to determine how close

or how far away we are and what it will take to make it happen. I find this pressure
inspiring and a great motivator for the rest of the team. In fact, over the past year,
I was able to help my team shorten our average product time to market by two
weeks.”

5. “I am an excellent communicator. I pride myself on making sure people have the

right information because it drives better results. Most business issues stem from
poor communication, so I feel a responsibility to keep everyone on the same page.
These skills helped increase my personal client retention rate by more than 40% in
a year, and helped the team deliver 100% of our projects by the original deadline.”
