Chapter 6: How to Describe Yourself in Job Interview? [Basic Knowledge]



Dalam wawancara, ada banyak sekali jenis pertanyaan yang muncul. Salah satunya yang berhubungan dengan "descriptive text" adalah describing yourself.

“How would you describe yourself?”

Pertanyaan di atas merupakan hal yang hampir sering dilontarkan dalam sebuah wawancara. Meskipun ini adalah sesuatu yang harus diantisipasi dan dipraktikkan, banyak pencari kerja yang mengabaikan pentingnya pertanyaan ini dan gagal meluangkan waktu untuk merumuskan jawaban yang benar.

Selain itu, ketika mendeskripsikan diri kita sendiri, kita harus memilih jawaban dengan cara yang meyakinkan dan terus terang. Berikut contoh jawaban dari deskripsi diri dalam wawancara pekerjaan yang telah dilansir dari Indeed:


I am passionate about my work.

Example: “I am passionate about my work. Because I love what I do, I have a steady source of motivation that drives me to do my best. In my last job, this passion led me to challenge myself daily and learn new skills that helped me to do better work.

I am ambitious and driven

Example: “I am ambitious and driven. I thrive on challenges and constantly set goals for myself, so I have something to strive toward. I’m not comfortable with settling, and I’m always looking for an opportunity to do better and achieve greatness. In my previous role, I was promoted three times in less than two years.”

I am highly organized.

Example: “I am highly organized. I always take notes, and I use a series of tools to help myself stay on top of deadlines. I like to keep a clean workspace and create a logical filing method, so I’m always able to find what I need. I find this increases efficiency and helps the rest of the team stay on track, too.

I'm a people-person 

Example: “I’m a people-person. I love meeting new people and learning about their lives and their backgrounds. I can almost always find common ground with strangers, and I like making people feel comfortable in my presence. I find this skill is especially helpful when kicking off projects with new clients.

I'm a natural leader

Example: “I’m a natural leader. I’ve eventually been promoted to a leadership role in almost every job because I like to help people. I find co-workers usually come to me with questions or concerns even when I’m not in a leadership role because if I don’t know the answer, I’ll at least point them in the right direction. In my last two roles.

I am result-oriented 

Example: “I am results-oriented, constantly checking in with the goal to determine how close or how far away we are and what it will take to make it happen. I find this pressure inspiring and a great motivator for the rest of the team. In fact, over the past year, I was able to help my team shorten our average product time to market by two weeks.”

I am an excellent communicator

Example: “I am an excellent communicator. I pride myself on making sure people have the right information because it drives better results. Most business issues stem from poor communication, so I feel a responsibility to keep everyone on the same page. These skills helped increase my personal client retention rate by more than 40% in a year, and helped the team deliver 100% of our projects by the original deadline.”
