Tell me about yourself?
Answer Posted / mayank juyal
Friends this question seems to be easy, but is not that
easy to answer.
First of all just think about these questions:
1) What exactly is the question??
2) Why HRs ask this question??
3) And what I am supposed to say???
Of Corse question is to tell about you.
So try to talk about your self more, instead of telling
him/her about your father, mother or family. HR is least
concern to know what ur father do or how many sisters u
have. Hr is more interested to know about what u have done
and what all qualities you have.
If u think it’s very important to tell about your family,
and then restrict yourself to very few words.
So point is: Try to tell him only about yourself.
You can talk about:
* Your Schooling.
*Graduation.
*Post Graduation.
*Your subject of interest.
* Your hobbies
*Your strengths
*Your Weakness. (Also tell, what are you doing to improve
on ur weakness)
*Your future plans (optional)
And for god sake don’t try to mug up all these things, and
then say in interview.
It will surely reflect that u have done a good home work to
remember those lines one by one like a poem or a song.
So speak it slowly, naturally and confidently.
Now question still left “Why this is HR’s pet question??
Answer is pretty straight; they want to test ur
communication skills and your confidence.
As in IT industry u will be working in different location,
u will be interacting wit different ppl, in teams, and may
be interacting wit your clients sitting in US, so they want
ppl who can communicate well and can explain what they want
and understand what others wants form them.
I hope this will help you in some extent, and will help you
in preparing for your interview. All the best 
