We don't want you to try to sell us.

3. We don't want you to try to sell us. It's a turn-off when a candidate seems overly focused on closing the deal, rather than on figuring out if the job is the right fit. No hiring manager wants to think she's being aggressively sold; we want the best person for the job, not the pushiest spiel.
Is us correct? Is it wrong to say "We don't want you to try to sell yourself"?
