Many of you have heard the term “elevator pitch,” the short summary a business person might use to describe and – hopefully – sell her product or service. In preparing for interviews, you, too, should create an elevator pitch to sell – you!

Create a 1-2 minute “summary statement” that recaps your resume. If you have this elevator pitch at the tip of your tongue, you’ll be at a great advantage, ready to answer questions like “Why do you think we chose to interview you?” and prepared to showcase your accomplishment in other answers throughout the session.
