  Case: Tell me about yourself
If you were asked this question during an interview: Tell me about yourself. How would you answer this question? What are the do's and don'ts when answering this question?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would immediately begin with talking about your education. State where you went to high school, college, what degree did you earn, and also if you have a temporary job now. Allow the interviewer to know your interests, activities you part take in, and lastly how you as a person will benefit this school/job you are about to accept. Do's: Be yourself! Don'ts: Never exaggerate or go into off task stories.
