What makes you a unique performer?
If you are interviewing with WME for representation as an actor: This question is the traditional job interview equivalent to 'Why should we hire you?' or 'Why are you the best candidate for us?' Be prepared to brag about yourself a bit, similar to a neatly packaged elevator pitch. Think about how you describe your acting style, how you learn and memorize your lines, the way you relate to your audience, or how you connect with your characters. Perhaps you have a unique skill set that you blend with your acting expertise such as being a dancer, playing instruments and singing, or being able to speak multiple languages, for instance. Whatever your response, make sure it's memorable for the agent.
"What makes me a unique performer is the fact that I am a performer, writer, and set designer all rolled into one. For my last off-broadway play, I co-wrote the script and also assisted with the set design. I like to be hands-on and become very involved in the entire production process."
