hi,This kind of questions are best answered by focusing on 5 to 6 strong selling points of yours. when asking this question, the interview is not looking for your history of school work and employment but kind of giving you a chance to sell yourself in about 60 seconds. Why 60 seconds? Try to limit your answers to 60 seconds as far as possible because if you go on talking about your past at length then the interviewer might loose interest in you and the interview might end at that very point. The answer should include your achievements, skills and talents that would enable you to succeed in the position that is being discussed.Make a short, organized statement of your education and professional achievements and professional goals. Then, briefly describe your qualifications for the job and the contributions you could make to the organization.
