Fresh starts are mostly full of excitement, but with major shifts in life come nervous jitters. No matter how old you get, the first day of a new semester or a job interview can still give you sweaty palms and a racing heart. However, if you’re as well prepared as possible for what’s yet to be thrown your way, you’ve got nothing to worry about. There will always be things out of your control, but if you manage to maintain your confidence while chatting with a potential new boss, friend or date, you’re on the right path toward success. Even if you don’t land the job, become close pals with the person who sat beside you in class or lock it down with your gym crush, you’ll still leave every situation more confident after showing up as your best self.
In many cases, job interviewers and professors alike enjoy getting to know people in lighthearted ways, such as “fun fact about me” games. Some university students spend time at the beginning of the semester carefully planning what information they want to reveal to their peers and instructor on the first day. Elsewhere, someone hoping to get hired by their dream company might research what questions they might be asked to ensure they make a strong impression.

No matter if you’re back on the job market, seeking to brush up on your communication skills or doing some early prep before heading back to school in the fall, the following “fun fact about me” questions can help.
