during a university interview

So, can you tell me more about yourself?

Sure. My name is Felix.

I was born in Hong Kong

I have one father and mother. My father is a clerk

my mother is a nurse

when introducing yourself there's no need to go into so much detail

the interviewer is more interested in your personality and what you're really like

Here's a better way to do it

My name is Felix. I grew up in this busy city of Hong Kong

I love the energy of this city. I'm an outgoing person who loves to meet people

Although I'm not an expert, I love to take photos

Remember, interviewers are more interested in who you really are

and not just information about what you have done

this also applies to job interviews

so practise introducing yourself at home and in front of a mirror

catch you on the flip side
