WorkReady: Skills for Work

Job Interviews (Part 1)

This course helps learners build a quick introduction of themselves and their
experience in order to answer the common job interview question: “Tell Me About
Yourself. ” In 10-15 minutes, a learner can walk away with a template to help them
describe themselves, several examples, practice, and suggested continued practice.
Each unit builds upon the last, so that learners can choose to focus on the most basic
response, or can build out a longer response by progressing through each unit.

  • This course is suitable for beginners with knowledge of the English alphabet
    to intermediate English Language Learners.
  • Each unit is a collection of short lessons that are 2 minutes or fewer. Each unit
    takes approximately 15 minutes to complete.
  • Designed with reference to national English language standards (CASAS)

Unit 2: Introducing Your General Skills and Experience

Continue building on an introduction. Form simple present tense sentences to talk
about general skills and experience (“I solve problems.”)


Unit 3: Giving a Specific Example of a Skill

Add to the general skills and experience. Form simple past tense sentences to give a
specific example from a previous job (“At my last job, I ________.”)
