As someone that has been hired, been a hiring manager, and now an individual contributor, here is a non-LinkedIn take to answer this question of “tell me about yourself”

A thread: 1/8 2/8 Whatever the LinkedIn tips says is ok but why repeat what is already in your resume? If you did not pass the basic requirement and meet the job description, you won’t be sitting there. There is one thing that can “humanise” the hiring better than the cliche LinkedIn ☝️

Today, I will attempt to service my ZIPP 1080 hub. Stay tuned for photos and narration. #triathleteonbudget Image Why am I servicing my hub? Two reasons, the last and first time I did it myself was before Ironman Malaysia 2019 when the wheels jam while riding. Found out the grease literally finished. Never had it serviced from day I bought as not many want to do it

Do you know that you need to make an appointment when visiting Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara (JPN) or National Registration Department (NRD)? A short thread. #DYKT Took my daughter to obtain her MyKad as required under the law when a citizen turns 12. Arrived at JPN+Immi centre at Dutamas. There were two lines - immigration and JPN itself. So first make sure you on the correct line. Inside looking out - JPN on left, Immi on Right.

Ready for @IRONMANtri VR7? I be posting IG Story on A Day In Life Of... a wannabe triathlete:) #beatyesterdaymy #garminmalaysia #hammeron #anywhereispossible Monitoring HR is good practice. Couple that with how your sleep been helps you to understand your body and prepare for the rest of the day. Garmin devices allow me to monitor all these. #beatyesterdaymy #anywhereispossible

@IRONMANtri #VR6 will start in a moment for me. Turning the 40km to an indoor FTP test and will take the 3km+10km run outdoor in 33DegC afternoon heat to push the body limits more. Mixing a serving of @hammernutrition #perpetuem to fuel me in the max 150mins workout. Dang. Forgot to charge my @Garmin #Fenix5xPlus. 23% battery may be sufficient but not taking the chance. Lucky I have my #Edge1000 for the bike session first!
