How should you introduce yourself in an interview?

Interview introduction is the most important part in an interview as it casts the first impression of you as a candidate for the job. Please do wear clothes which are neatly washed and Ironed. 

There are different ways to introduce yourself depending on what the interviewer requires you to do.

Technical interview:
Technical interviewers also ask the question "Tell me about yourself?". It is of no use to them if you talk about your personal background and hobbies so start by wishing them as soon as you enter and as the question is posed to you start with your academic background your projects, certifications ,various workshops ,symposiums and conferences attended. "Always Highlight any relevant internships or experience to the job profile". All this information would be sufficient to start a meaningful technical conversation with the interviewing panel .

HR Interview:
In the HR interview talk about your personal experiences and give information which would present you as the candidate who would encompass the qualities that the organisation needs . State any personal experiences to highlight the character that you are talking about. If you state that you are assertive in making decisions then discuss a situation in which you have been assertive in making decision. DON'T build castles out of thin air as that would be detrimental to your interview. 

Enjoy the experience as a whole.

Edit 1:

Use the STAR method which will be effective. STAR is
S- Situation faced 
T- Task demanded
A-Action Taken
R-Result obtained as a course of this action. 

Interviews can be really nerve-wracking. And with all the competition out there, it is good to try to arm oneself with a good amount of knowledge that helps us make a good impression. Here are a few interviewing tips.

Smile Right

It is good to achieve a good balance with smiling. You don’t want to do it too much, because you could come across less sincere. And you don’t want to do it too little, or you could come off as too serious. In an interview, the key is to know at which times to smile. You want to smile when you first meet the person and shake their hand, when you talk about subjects you are passionate about and at the end of the interview while saying goodbye. This will ensure that you are coming across sincere and easy to work with.

Don’t Cross Your Arms

Crossing your arms or tightly crossing your legs can increase your levels of the stress hormone cortisol as well as lower your testosterone levels. It is better to avoid these low power poses. Keeping your trunk wide open to the people around you can make you seem easier to talk to and it keeps you in a more open-minded attitude.

Darting Eyes

Darting eyes always means a person feels insecure. To an interviewer, it could also make them feel that you do not trust or maybe are not being genuine about what you are saying. To showcase confidence, maintain a more solid eye positioning.
