Perhaps the first and most commonly asked question in a job interview is 'Tell me about yourself”. Though it may seem a bit unrelated to the job you're applying for, in essence this is the most important question in determining your fate at the interview.
So, whenever you come across such question, your answer should be more or less a summary
of the ideal candidate profile. In addition, you should also be able to support all your claims of possessing the required characteristics by means of examples, narratives, stories and achievements. Once you start telling the interviewer about yourself, make sure that all the things you mention are exactly what the interviewer is expecting to listen. This way, the interviewer will pay more attention to you. At that time, the questions asked will be more specific and to-the-point, and instead of just asking to hear more about yourself, he may start asking about specific characteristics and experience in the industry.
Once the interviewer begin to drift away from the 'tell me about yourself' question and start to ask about your particular achievements, you will know that you are heading towards the right direction. Since you'll get a pretty fair idea of what the interviewer is looking for, you will be able to mold your response in a way that establishes your appropriateness for the job. To add more impact to your presentation, fabricate the situations, actions and result of the narratives that you tell to match the the realities of the profile that your research exposed.
Doing so will allow the interviewer to envisage your achievements on the profile in question, while you share your experience. If that happens, it is more than any amount of information that you might otherwise deliver in a less striking and memorable manner.
