Do a quick rundown of your life history but keep it relevant. Heres a breakdown that I hear frequently... 1 min - Your Educational Background and interests and how it led you to this particular position. Keep it professional. Highlight any volunteer work you have done. 2min - Your work history. Speak BRIEFLY on your past work experience what you found you excelled at and how it led to this position. DO NOT just read off your resume. 1 min - Your Future. Talk about where you hope to go. Again make it as relevant to your position as you can without lying. A candidate with goals is ALWAYS attractive. PRACTICE...PRACTICE...PRACTICE...
The WORST thing you can say is "Not much." or "Nothing."
RESEARCH the company first. Yep, whether you are applying at McDonald's or applying at a Fortune 500 Company. Do a search online. Look at their website. Find out who they are, what they do and why you'd want to work there. The WORST thing you can do is showing up at an interview knowing nothing about the company!
Once you know about the company you can answer this question more easily (for example: "I've read about how this company's growth is on the rise and also how involved it is in the local community.")

Answer2: In addition to the first comment, I made use of an excellent series of books called "Knock em Dead. They cover every aspect of the job search process, how to look, where to look, what to say, resume writing, phone interviews etc. Go to the library or buy the book, you will not be sorry. My nephew in a phone interview read straight from the book and landed the job.
This is a very good opportunity to talk about company's history of development, vision and mission - you may find it by researching from company's website. And always mention how you feel you would be able to add to the current achievements.
This is s a great question and a perfect opportunity for you to really sell yourself. But, you should also be honest.
A person is defined in three ways: (1) who he is right now, (2) what he has done in the past, and (3) what he will become in the future.
So, here is how you answer: (1) I am a [the job title for which you are applying or something very close.] (2) I have [how many years of experience] in [what field, what subject]. (3) I want to be [a job title that is a couple or a few levels above the current position for which you are applying in 5 to 10 years.] I would suggest just briefly going back 5 years but focusing on your most recent experience.
I would advise that you talk positively about yourself but making it relevant to the job you are applying for. Remember that the interviewers are looking for the best person for the job. So they don't want to hear anything bad about you. Tell them about your good points:
It is also an opportunity to promote what you are really good at but never mention what you are not so good at or what qualifications/experience you do not have. When I answered that question in a mock interview, I spoke about my last job, why I was making a career move and throw in anything that you did outside of work that contributed to your overall progress in life (such as schooling).
Hi I am Rohit malhotra
Honestly, - Just tell them about yourself!
tell the truth
tell me about your self for accounts opening
Can this individual be personable without being unprofessional?
I don t know SORRY ''Are you able to sacrafice something within a team'.
why would you be a great addition to our company? how would you be a great addition to our company? what is your number one ambition?
I would say this is on a job interview. Tell me about your self. I would like to know how much you know about this job you are applying for . Do you have any hobby's Do you have any awards for anything. you need to more less now sell your self ,come up with all the impressive things about yourself.
When an interviewer asks a potential employee to 'tell me more about yourself' in an interview, the interviewer is looking for the person's honest reflection of themselves, so the employer can get a sense of who the individual is. It is good to highlight important accomplishments and attributes that relate to the job. The answer should be brief and last about one minute.
There is not a difference between describing yourself and telling about yourself in a job interview. This is a time when you want to try and sell yourself so the employer will want to hire you.
This is a question that you would be asked during an interview to get a feel for your conviction if your beliefs.
'Tell me about yourself' is the best question to demonstrate about our qualifications.
