Tell me about yourself.
Interviewers love this question! It's so open ended that it makes a lot of us uncomfortable. Don't fall into their trap. Answer with a short synopsis of your professional experience - you're not going to start with your "I was born..." speech! Think of this answer as your "elevator speech" at a networking event.
This should be a 2 minute answer, that summarizes your background in broad strokes. You can end this summary with a little more detail on your current (or last) position and what you're looking for.
Still not sure how to answer this one? Take a look at this fictional response...
As you can see from my resume, I'm a senior level sales professional with a strong track record of exceeding my numbers everywhere I've been. I was fortunate to get some excellent training in my early career through my tenure at IBM. I think the lessons I learned there really shaped my career. I moved into National Accounts with IBM and then into sales management, where I've been ever since.
I've managed sales teams on a national basis, and have had the privilege of working with some very talented reps along the way. I'm a strong coach and mentor and consider people development a key strength.
All of my sales experience has been in the B to B arena, typically working on multi-year, multi-million dollar deals. Despite my management responsibilities, I've never lost my passion for working directly with customers. I still spend at least 50-60% of my time in front of customers.
Unfortunately, my current company was recently acquired by Mega, Inc. and we are getting out of the business I support. I see the writing on the wall and have started to look for a new opportunity...get the idea??
