        the pitch
        
        Tell me about yourself
        
        fullstack dev. work for 2 year, dev backend and front end. I keep it up with technologies changes by focusting more to javascript like React, nodejs to build quick app
        “I'm a sales manager for Orthogonal Ads, where I lead a team of six salespeople. I have worked there for two years and manage sales for our mobile integration components.”
        
        Walk me through your resume.
        
        starting from your college experience. The more recent the experience
        
        key accomplishments
        
        what learn?
        
        What drives you?
        
        Ex: “To back up, I did my undergraduate degree at the University of Pittsburgh, where I was the president of my fraternity. I found that I really enjoyed the recruiting side—trying to identify and recruit the right members. It required me to quickly assess people, filter who is and isn't a good match, build quick relationships with people, and sell them on our strengths. This was what drew me into sales.
        “When I graduated, I ended up actually taking a job in customer support for a health care start-up. I joined when the company was only about 15 people and worked very closely with the sales team. When the company needed to ramp up its sales efforts, I transitioned completely over to sales. I met my sales quota every year, and eventually got poached by an ex-manager who was starting a new company.
        
        What You're Doing Now
        
        Extracurriculars
        
        “Outside of work, I've been learning how to do home remodeling. I love learning new things and getting my hands dirty—literally, in this case. I've so far remodeled my bathroom and I'm halfway through my kitchen.”
        
        Why should we hire you?
        
        1.personal attribute
        
        Second, I am not afraid of trying something new and failing. I don't stick to just what's easy; I push my limits. This has made me a leader in tackling top challenges at my prior positions and will do the same for you.
        
        1 skill
        
        First, I have a deep background in statistics. This will allow me not only to perform complex analysis, but also to drive changes by teaching the rest of the team how to do this.
        
        cultural match
        
        “Third, I'm passionate about the quantification of body metrics. I will enter the company excited, and I will stay excited. I am always reading up on the latest trends.”
        
        Why Shouldn't We Hire You?
        
        motivations + skills (what exites, love working with people, tough algorithm problems...)
        
        Ex: “Obviously, I am really excited about this opportunity. But to be honest, I can't say that I am absolutely, definitely the perfect fit for this job. I don't think it's realistic to claim such insight. I guess I'll tell you what could be reasons why I might not be a good fit. “I do best in environments where people's roles aren't narrowly confined. The shiny-happy/put-a-good-interview-spin-on-it way of saying this is that I enjoy wearing many hats and getting my hands dirty. The more blunt, realistic, negative way of putting this is that I get bored and lose focus if I'm doing just one thing all day. “Please don't misunderstand. I love doing this work. I wouldn't be in this profession if I didn't. But I also want to work closely with other job functions and maybe even take on little aspects of their responsibilities from time to time. “If you're looking for someone who will be happy doing only their core duties, it's not me, unfortunately. I wouldn't be happy, so, from a strictly selfish perspective, don't hire me. “Less selfishly, I should also advise you that there are some things I'm not good at. Specifically, I just don't have a good attention to detail. Again, the positive side of this is that I execute quickly and get things done—but it comes with a trade-off of making little mistakes. “Ever heard of Quora? I swear it is impossible for me to write a Quora answer without dropping a word or making a typo. I'm one of the most active writers on the site, but any lengthy answer will generally have a mistake or two. I would never, ever go into, say, air traffic control or become a surgeon. The costs of mistakes are too high. “I am getting better at this. I know to check my work carefully, and I have a good sense for where I'm likely to make mistakes. But still, being detail oriented does not come naturally to me. If little mistakes are critical (or seen as critical), then I probably wouldn't be your best hire. Does that make sense?”
        
        Why are you leaving your job?
        
        previous job good in ..., go abroad with new envi, culture, language and people, new technologies...
        “My current position has been great in certain ways. It has taught me a lot about communication, negotiations, and how to manage many clients at once. However, I've found that I excel most in building longer-lasting relationships with clients, and I'm looking for an opportunity where this is a primary focus.”
        
        Where Do You See Yourself in Five Years?
        
        Full stack dev, nativescript to develop mobile app, Cloud , big data and IoT, machine learning -> bid data vs m/c combination good for companies -> more companies do it
        “I'd like to move into a marketing role eventually. I'm good at thinking about product positioning—it's one of the things that makes me a good fit for this role—but I know I need more formal business experience before doing that. I hope to develop some of those skills here. I'm also taking classes online on statistics to develop my quantitative side.
        “I've also considered starting a company one day, but I don't know if that will be within the next five years or not. I love working in close-knit teams, moving fast, and pushing the envelope of what's realistic.”
        
        What Are Your Strengths?
        
        “I think there are three core strengths. “First, I have strong communication skills that have been refined through five years of prior teaching experience. “Second, I'm a very creative person. Whether it's writing new song lyrics for my band or designing a novel interface, I'm able to find unique solutions to problems. “Third, I am passionate about learning. I recently finished up a certificate in psychology at the local university, and I'm starting a new program now in art history. I may never directly apply this education, but I love learning new things.”
        
        What are your weaknesses?
        
        I think I have three main weaknesses. “First, I sometimes lack attention to detail. While this is somewhat good in that it enables me to execute quickly, it also means that I can make careless mistakes. I have learned that I need to double- or triple-check important work before submitting it. “Second, I am a very quantitative person, and sometimes I can lose sight of the personal aspects of a decision—who is impacted and why. I've learned the hard way that I need to consider who all the stakeholders are in a decision, and how they'll react. “Third, I am too critical of ideas—both my own and sometimes those of others. I've largely masked this by focusing on offering positive feedback, but I know I have some room to improve my internal reactions.”
        
        Why Unemployment
        
        The best answer involves accomplishing something or brushing up on new skills.
