What are the self-introduction strategies?

In the interview, self-introduction is very important, which is related to your stay. The following is an introduction to the relevant content, hoping to help you.

First of all, why self-introduction is so important.

For the interviewer, through your self-introduction, you can quickly get your first impression of you, including your clothes, face, conversation and so on. And you can also provide topics and clues for the interview questions through your introduction. Most importantly, this is actually an interview survey. Your language organization and logic, your nervousness and your communication skills are the most basic qualities of a product manager.

For the interviewer, this is the best opportunity to break the ice, which can largely lay the tone of the whole interview. Self-presentation is a "business scene", which needs to show highlights, related product experiences and individual advantages. By the way, someone once asked the interviewer in Zhihu why he didn't introduce himself, which helped both sides to understand. It is too weak, because the relationship between supply and demand in the labor market is not equal, and job seekers are in a vulnerable group.

Secondly, the three elements of self-introduction.

What should I pay attention to when introducing myself? Specifically, what should be included in the self-introduction and what aspects should be considered in the conception mainly include the following three aspects.

First, self-awareness.

That is to say, we should have an all-round understanding of ourselves, generally from personality to work experience, what are the personality characteristics. On the basis of honesty and sincerity, it seems that the quality required by the product manager is close, such as cheerful, approachable, quiet as a virgin and moving like a rabbit.

In terms of products, it is best to focus on the experience related to job hunting. If you don't have relevant internship experience, then find some product-related examples, such as marketing competition, WeChat official account operation and other works.

If these things really don't exist, find something you do with your heart in your life, such as a carefully planned gift for your girlfriend or crush or a detailed travel guide, and sort it out and tell the interviewer.

If these are not available, then you should re-examine your career plan.

Second, the cognition of job hunting.

Before the interview, you should know the job position in detail through various channels, including what you want to do and what qualities you need. Then, when introducing yourself in the interview, you should "do what you like", explain your understanding of the job and your potential quality, and indirectly explain your "desire" for this position.

You know, passion can infect people and sometimes even change a person's decision.

Third, the order of content introduction.

There are many kinds of this, which vary from person to person. I prefer the gradual type. To put it simply, the first is the introduction of personal information, then the personality, then the product, of course, it must be the introduction of product experience related to the target job, and finally the understanding of the job and the desire for the job.

Finally, introduce yourself to the matters needing attention when expressing.

One is time.

Generally, 2-3 minutes is appropriate, and the longest time should not exceed 5 minutes. For some special interviews such as group interviews, the time will also be required to be within 1 minute. Therefore, it is best to prepare several self-introductions of different time types in advance for a formal interview.

The second is the speed of speech.

Just speak at a normal speed, not too fast or too slow, remember not to get stuck, breathe evenly, and most importantly, don't be nervous.

The third is an ultra-short summary.

For example, "Please summarize yourself in one sentence when introducing yourself" and "What are the five key words on you?" These relatively uncommon self-introductions are occasionally asked and look wonderful. In fact, the requirements for inspection are covered by the necessary qualities of product managers.

That's basically all. It may not be completely right, and it may not be suitable for everyone, but your self-introduction must be really conceived and planned by yourself. Although this is a trivial matter, it is very exercise for product thinking and logical ability.
