How to approach it

Keep it to about 90 seconds and make it relevant to the role. Use present, past, future: what you do now, the experience that got you here, and why this job is the logical next step. Skip your life story — every sentence should earn its place.

Example answer

"I'm a backend engineer with four years building Java microservices, currently at Nexa Labs where I own our payments platform. Before that I spent two years at a consultancy shipping projects for fintech clients, which taught me to move quickly without cutting corners. Most recently I led our migration from a monolith to twelve services, cutting deploy times by 40%. I'm looking for a team where I can take on more architecture ownership — which is exactly what drew me to this role."
