What are the do's and don'ts when answering this question? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I believe this is your one opportunity in an interview to set yourself apart from all others being interviewed. I always share some personal information with the interviewer because they are interested in me as an individual but cannot come out and ask, "Do you have children?", "What are your hobbies"?, etc. Employers will have plenty of time to address your college education and work experience in the rest of the interview, but this is the time to make personal connections with your interviewer and make yourself stand out. I usually share that I am a mom of two and an avid reader. I also usually share that I love music and am willing to help with extracurricular activities that involve music, such as band.
