Best Introduce yourself answers for Interviews

Template 1 (Experienced Developer):

Hey! I'm [Name], and I've been building websites for about 5 years now. I'm really good with React and Node.js - basically, I build both what users see and what happens behind the scenes.

In my current job at [Company], I fixed up our website to load way faster - users loved it! We went from taking 6 seconds to load to just 2 seconds. I really enjoy solving these kinds of problems.

Why this works:

  • Sounds natural, like a real conversation

  • Mentions a clear win (speed improvement)

  • Shows enthusiasm

Template 2 (Mid-Level):

Hi there! I'm [Name], and I've been coding websites for 3 years. I started with HTML and CSS, but these days I mostly work with React.

At my current job, I built this cool dashboard that helps our customer service team - they say it saves them like 2 hours every day! I love making stuff that actually helps people.

Why this works:

  • Shows growth journey

  • Gives a real example

  • Focuses on impact

Template 3 (Starting Out):

Hi! I'm [Name], and I started coding about a year ago.

I've built 3 websites from scratch - my favorite was an online store that actually made real sales! I'm really into React right now, and I'm learning something new every day.

I'm looking for a team where I can grow and contribute at the same time.

Why this works:

  • Honest about experience level

  • Shows initiative

  • Enthusiasm for learning
