Edwin, an anthropomorphic jackrabbit, is wearing a business casual outfit and has a grumpy expression on his face. He gives job searching tips by speaking directly to the reader using a dialogue bubble. Edwin says,
"“Tell me about yourself” is almost always the first question in an interview, sometime across interviews. Be prepared! Write down and practice your story. Adjust your story to highlight things they noted in the job posting. Do not stumble when answering the first question. That looks bad."

"Tell me about yourself" is kind of misleading. They aren't asking about who you are as much as they're asking how your background and education makes you a good fit for the company. If you're making a career change, this is where you can explain why you're making the change or what transferable skills you have.
