Duh!

You are intelligent
Arrogant(believe me I know the difference between that and self confidence)
Hostile

I could go on.

Then again, I'm yet to meet or hear of any interviewer with that much patience, like you could say that word for word in an interview, without them knowing it was crammed.

I'm a Leo! I have double personality! Actually, It’s multiple! I study the game of power to develop the ability to understand everybody around me and judge by my own reasoning, & by this, i don’t joke with what are not meant to be joked with. I respect & honor, those who deserved to be honored. I can be anybody, any day, anytime, anyhow, anywhere.

I’m energetic, dynamic, competent, ambitious and decisive, a confident natural leader, who loves responsibility and challenges. I instinctively aspire to positions in which I can mobilize resources and seek long-term goals. I care for the global direction, but leave the detailed implementation tasks to others.

I look for the strategically most effective ways and ensure that problems are solved and decisions are taken, and that something goes on. I radiate a natural authority and awaken confidence and trust in others. I like and respect people who challenge me, but hate incompetence and inefficiency and treat people who do not meet my expectations harshly. I prefer to work with independent, decisive and results-oriented people. I’m aware of competition and often a workaholic and i want to be the best in whatever I do.

I am open and honest, resolute and energetic, I express my opinions powerfully and generally i go straight to the point. I love confrontations and enjoy intellectually stimulating discussions, but I can only be convinced by clear and solid rational reasons. I think fast, express myself clearly and speak in public with skill and full of self-confidence, even impromptu.
I am logical, analytical, innovative and imaginative. I can make effective and often tough decisions, and if it requires the matter, I rarely take into consideration the feelings and needs of the affected people. I am brave and determined when it is necessary to solve complex problems and I can make drastic changes. Once i have started an action, I am often not willing to change my plans, even if the circumstances may seem to require it.

Although it is difficult for me to harmonize family and professional life, I care very conscientiously and responsibly for the welfare and financial security of my family and friends. I wish for a life partner, who is autonomous and self-aware and supports my image of success. You inspire people who mean something to you to improve constantly.

I value prestige and status, I’m sociable, I can be entertaining and affable and i live with pleasure and enthusiasm. i see relationships also as an opportunity to learn something. I prefer social events which allow a mentally stimulating exchange. I connect work and pleasure and foster commercially important relationships.................



I love the intro 'I am Leo!' Everything keeps connecting to it in my head and this is commendable.

I also think that the part of your family life ineptitude should have been totally clipped. Very many people want great family builders, even when they are not so themselves.

After that 3rd paragraph, every other thing became an overkill, which negates the very personality you try to portend.

As an interviewer, I will hire you but will seek to put you where the battle is bloodiest. Remember, that is what you asked for.

But I learnt something here.

All I see here is the self-aggrandizing ramble of a garrulous candidate. Most interviewers I know would abruptly cut you short after a few seconds of enduring this over-rehearsed, almost robotic parroting.

There is a difference between effusion of confidence and delusion of grandeur.

But this one is definitely MAD and ROAMING.. I even shock pass the interviewer.

And thats how people fail exam, someone like this would come out and be like "i murder the thing".

If I am the owner of the firm, I will employ him and entrap him, with a project he will regret taking on, like building an estate in Sambisa forest or a model primary and secondary school.

If I was the interviewer I will tell the OP that he is a copy cat because he must have read and programmed this into his jobless brain. I will give you the job and ask you to write all that you said down, I will be watching you as you work and any day, time or anywhere you go contrary to what you said about yourself, I will tell a sign board writer to write your sack letter in a giant bill board with big letters and place it outside the office for you. OP you seems boastful and a talkative.

This is boring.

As an interviewer, I'd rather you give me instances of each trait.

Besides, basically you should summarise description of yourself in 2minutes highest. This is just an intro.

How did you memorize all this?

If it was a teaching job at the university, do not worry, it's their loss.

I think you are brilliant but that explanation is for a teaching job in university sir. Any other organization will take it as a waste of their time
