Introducing yourself in social or professional settings can often set up connections for the future. Whether you are attending a formal job fair or mingling at an event, you want to capture a person’s attention and make an impression in a few minutes.
An effective way to connect and to convey your message is a personal elevator pitch. This is a clear, concise, and specific statement that describes you, your interests, and your strengths in less than 30 seconds.
Ideally your “elevator pitch” will leave someone wanting to know more about you and lead to a longer conversation or additional connections.
