In a pitch for an executive board position, one candidate said, “You can tell by my personality.”
I don’t advise you say that… ever. Saying that (or something similar to that) let’s everyone know that you will change, that if you get rejected, you’ll alter your personality until you make the most people you can happy.
Worst of all, no, I can’t tell by your personality.
Personality is who you are, not who you can be or how you say you are.
If you’re new, if you want to show that you fit in or stand out, focus on sharing what you have done, what you have created, what you failed over and over at. THAT tells me more about your personality than what you can say your personality type is.
And if you have nothing to show, either say that or go back to the drawing board and build something to showcase.
Stay Positive & Go In Swinging, Not Just Saying You’re The Batting Type
