Career Tip Tuesday: “Tell me about yourself” doesn’t have to be intimidating!

Instead of trying to summarize your entire life story, focus on three things:

➡️ Where you are professionally
➡️ What skills or experience you bring
➡️ Where you’re hoping to go next

Keep it to about 30–60 seconds and practice saying it out loud. The goal isn’t to memorize a script—it’s to feel confident introducing yourself.
