SOS ---- Need help!

I really really really need someone to answer me with a format that they use to answer 'Tell me about yourself'. This is a question that sets the tone for the rest of the interview. I guess I am doing something wrong. I am in urgency to land a job this month, anyhow!!

Any help will be highly appreciated even if it's just a template that you follow which helps you secure that second round.


Thank you for reading this post! :)))

this is an insanely simple question and really more of a formality than something that drives an actual hire / no hire decision.

however, a framework I use is:

Name
Current Role
Explanation of current role
Relevant previous roles
Brief explanation of previous roles
Briefly touch on hobby / personal interest just to humanize me (photography, surfing, mountain biking)

Check out Jeff H Sipe on YouTube. He has great advice about this question.

GCA Questions Help

Hi everyone!
I've had 2 rounds of interviews at Google (UK) for a non-tech role in Platforms & Ecosystems (L4/L5). Recruiter told me that I've been selected for the final rounds (GCA + Leadership Interview). From his feedback, one thing they wanted me to improve on was the GCA Questions. Would anyone have any tips on how to prepare for these? I've checked some of Jeff Sipe videos online but would appreciate any support! I find GCA quite stressful...
Thx
Thanks in advance!
