You want to take the opportunity to share something unique or of interest, that sort of summarizes who you are. And if possible you want to tie it to the job.

Use the game show tricks. Like, when you watch TV those contestants only have a minute to talk about themselves.

1) Tell the interviewer where were born or raised
2a) Your education if you recenlty graduated or are currently studying something
2b) If you aren't in school or graduated a long time ago, then say something about your family (what do your parents do for a living or if you're married or have kids)
3) Add-on a hobby or something you like to do in you spare time. 4) Finish it up by saying, "I've really been looking forward to this interview because I'm excited about the job." (or something like that.)

Good luck!

The following is what many professionals in the field say:

http://www.jobinterviewquestions.org/questions/selling-yourself.asp

"The "Tell me about yourself" question:

Here is an example about how to answer the first question most interviewers ask. “Tell me about yourself” It also allows the job seeker to share with the interviewer the most important thing they want to know – “Why should I hire you?”

1. Personal and Education:
This part is used to give the interviewer relevant information concerning you personally and about your educational background. This does not include personal information such as marital status, children, etc. This does include information such as: hometown or state and/or personal attribute(s). The education should be either the latest obtained and/or major field if relevant to job objective.

2. Early Career/Life Experiences:
This part is used to share with the interviewer past work and life experiences relevant to the job objective.

3. Recent Work History/Life Experiences:
This is the time for the job seeker to relate to the employer two accomplishments/results of the job seeker that indicate why he/she is the best candidate for the position sought.

4. Why you are here:
In this part, the job seeker speaks with enthusiasm that he/she is here for the specific position sought.

What to Do:

Arrive 10-15 minutes early.
Use time wisely to review employer research information.
Have pen and paper. Asking to borrow a pen indicates lack of preparation.
Be enthusiastic. Recruiters remember a positive attitude.
Listen carefully to the interviewer’s complete question before responding.
If needed, pause and take time before answering difficult questions.
Keep going even if you feel you made a mistake.
Carry extra resumes, references, etc. organized in a portfolio.
Unless asked, do not discuss salary and benefits."

Hope this helps. =)
