Fanny,
From my experience, you do not have to say too much to be successful at interviews - Just say what catches the recruiters attention. My advice is as follows:
(Before the interview)
1. Do extensive research on the organization and find out the profile of the person they may be looking for (for instance look out for keywords like "innovation", "strategic", "capacity", "relationship" etc.
2. Look back and select your experiences that tally with these requirements. Then think of how you could present these in a concise and chronological form.
(During the Interview)
3. Briefly introduce yourself, (Your name and background education/work experience is enough, then go straight to your strengths).
4. Using the experiences you have summarized in step 2, describe yourself in as FEW words as possible - allow the recruiter to probe you in those areas HE/SHE is interested in. Saying what is important to the recruiter is the key. You just have to get this part right so be sure to do step 1 well.
I think this in addition to what TBABY and Otunoye should be of help.
Best wishes

how doyou describe your self? To me the interviewer been the one to interview you, already have your resume with them before calling you in.therefore for them to ask you this question there must be something particular they want to know which is do you really know who you are, your strenght, weakness,and how you can harness them together for good productivity in your field.
Ok, Tbaby that confirms it!, am so sure it you. Am a friend of Alesh does that name ring a bell?
Does anyone of you guys know that the 'interview question' in contention is a question asked by Bascomm, an engineering servicing firm on its online application form?
Having dat in mind, you just concentrate on describing your skills, strengths, goals e.t.c. Specific facts. The issue of name, addy is not relevant bcos earlier in the form, the name, addy e.t.c of the applicant had been collected.
That ll be all Folks.
YES SERENA
HOW IS HE?
ITS BEEN A WHILE I SAW HIM (2003 AFTER NYSC)
PLS LOAD YOUR PICTURE I'LL LIKE TO KNOW IF I KNOW YOU AS WELL
GOD BLESS

Avincent, you're right. Most times when that question is being asked, your details are right there for all to see. I believe one should be specific and also buttress points that are not heavily emphasized on ur CV....what's literally in the mind of the ones asking is 'Tell us something about you that separates you from the pack, tell us something about u that'll convince us u are the right person for this job'.
All said and done, all na by God cos as much as u tailor u answers, there's no ready made answer, u just have to be graced to say something that'll bring u favor.
Wishing us all the very best.
