Yeah this is a general question .
1)If you are a experience person then start with your job profile and designation that were assinged to you.
2)Important thing is you have to stress upon your roles and major responsibilities and your career awards and rewards.
3)your educational back ground.(your graduation and post graduation)
4)your family background(your father,mother).
Thats it.Try it once.

I have interviewed a lot of people over my life time specifically for medical jobs. This is what I look for. The resume should be on good paper and well thought out. Appearance! I cant tell you how many people have showed up for interviews with greasy hair, no make up, and raggy street clothes. I would say that every person I have hired for lab showed up clean and wearing scrubs. When I ask them about themselves the ones I have hired have been energetic and smiling, they usually start out with personal items like kids or spouse or why they chose to be single (centrating on school and work is what I like to hear). THen a bit about goals. And your comment about "had a lot of fun" I would change that to it was absolutely invaluable experience. I do not hire people that say "like" at the beginning of every sentence or even more than twice in an interview..unless needed. I dont like "UMMMM's" either. No gum in your mouth. No fidgeting. Just eb very confident and a strong hand shake. I dont like limp hand shakes at all. Hope that helped you. Its good that your thinking ahead. Peace, Stephanie

I hate that question as well...It's such an open question. It's basically your back ground. for Instance. I'm a mother of two and we live in Central FL, I will complete my bachelors degree in business administration by the end of this month; Then I'd tell about your strengths and how you would be a benefit to the company as much as the company would benefit you and hoe excited you are about this position. I hope that helps

Tell the interviewer about your hobbies, working experience etc. Try to portray your strengths sush as taking initiative, hardworking, fast learner, like to learn new things etc.
This question is a bit open ended. Can write a whole essay. :-)

Prepare yourself well in advance for such standard questions. It's better to stick to the facts and highlight your strengths. With prospective head-hunters scanning applicants' blogs and home-pages (in the US), it isn't easy to lie in an interview any more.

Alot of people have a problem with that question. It is a confidence trick question. How much do you know about yourself that you have the confidence to tell.

They really want to know how you see yourself. Try to focus on the positive things you've learned or experienced, related to school or work.

practice with a friend have him/her sit down and act like the interviewer and make sure that they ask you that question and practice, practice, preactice (you know what they say practice makes perfect). Good luck
