A Tricky Question–“Tell Me About Yourself?”

Mostly people, when they are asked this question during an interview, start sharing the personal information. And here they goes. The employer does not mean to ask about your social security number or place of birth. He might be referring to you, your family and other such related things. Now if you really select to answer the question in this pattern, you are going to lose the chance of getting that particular job, because your answer is absolutely incorrect.
