# Self-Introduction Interview Structure

> A four-step framework for answering "Tell me about yourself" in job interviews.

This framework offers a structured way to answer the opening "Tell me about yourself" question in job interviews. It focuses on keeping the response concise, emphasizing relevant value, and steering the conversation back to the interviewer.

2. Most relevant experience (Самый релевантный опыт)
