PORTSMOUTH, Va. -  

We're helping you navigate the landmines on the road to employment.

 

Today, we're tackling what you'll find when you come face-to-face with an employer -- and what could be the most dangerous interview question on the planet.

Francina Harrison, the Career Engineer, helps us figure out what to say when the boss-to-be says, "Tell me about yourself."

Why is it Dangerous:
1. Sets the tone of the interview
2. You volunteer TOO MUCH information
3. Rambling occurs, lack of focus/goals
4. Open-ended questions destroy MOST applicants
