The Real Akon (TRA) -My Magazine Blog ~ When asked 'Tell me about Yourself 'can be Tricky To Reply

In job interview or in casual situation, either way not everyone always give the right reply. I don't always often like others I struggle where to start however, see few suggestions below:
Say your name
Profession (keep it short)- no need to elaborate on your unused college and university degrees.
No one is really interested in your single or married status
Or your sexual preferences -straight,lesbian, gay, bi-sexual (if you like swing both sides, nobody cares), nor how your village people have been disturbing you in the night.
Absolutely no mention of religion, unless you are asked, kinda reminds me about someone who came for a job interview (reversed roles) asked the interviewer if he knew Jesus such obnoxious lack of boundaries. Some people can shout Jesus down your throatoooo. Fear them.

My full name without MRS, I don't always need that decoration- it does not define who I am and don't even think I am a feminist either.
What you do for a living (says a lot about you), without too much elaboration, unless it relates to a job description then sell yourself 'well well' here with few examples like how you have managed small group (managerial skill), event organiser, charity work ( consciencious),sporty (enthusiasm), work with children/old people (patience).
Religion will matter if Pastor Adeboye has invited you for pastoral or clergy post in Redeemed Church.
Politics is rarely crucial unless as in Nigeria APC or PDP, tell them all the lies they want to hear.🙂 You might even leave the interview room with 'ghana-must-go-' full of cash.
That you are an ardent reader, well travelled- reflection of how well informed, multiple-cultured, enlightened you are. Please not the way our naija have bastarised Dubai.
