A Tired Senior’s Guide to Self-ReflectionMay 2024“Tell me about yourself” has always been a bizarre question to me. More specifically, I find it strange that such a misleadingly simple sounding question can seem to demand such a complex response. Of course, it asks that the interviewee divulge a select few key points from their life that paint a semi-accurate picture of the entirety of their character, aspirations, and motives. But there’s something more to it, a delicate balance between truth and marketability that forces the subject to walk the line between being completely honest, which feels unmarketable, and embellishing with half-truths and tall tales, which feels like lying.
