Personal details
Example:
“I’m Saraswati . Pleasure speaking to you. Right now, I live in Jakarta with
my family. I’ve heard good things about Bakri Ltd in the estate industry
and it’s located in a great place. So I decided Bakri Ltd is a great company
to pivot my career to after 1 year finishing bachelor of Public
Administration from university of Indonesia.”
Three adjectives
“If I had to pick three adjectives to describe myself, I’d choose resourceful,
encouraging, and results-driven. I’m resourceful because I find ways to deliver
even in high-pressure situations. I’m quick to find new solutions if the current
methodology is lacking. At the same time, I keep my team’s morale up by hearing
out their problems and reminding them to take a breather when needed. Being
resourceful and encouraging to my team helps us achieve our set goals and tweak
them so we don’t plateau in growth.”
Your Achievement
“In my last company, I was responsible for a 200% increase in blog traffic. By
working inter-departmentally, I spearheaded an overhaul of schedules and
campaigns that grew our audience. And by creating a relay system with our BDR
team, we doubled our conversion rate.”
Expectation Setting
“If I become your content manager, I can take stock of your organization’s
current needs and identify what strategies are needed to meet them. We can
then work on a long-term plan to work on neglected goals and create new ones
we can achieve per quarter. I can also introduce team bonding exercises I
developed in my last place of work, proven to improve morale and synergy.
