The topic/question question "Tell me about yourself" appears in a number of Manager Tools / Career Tools casts.

The MT team makes very clear in the Interviewing Series this question is among the first "big questions" with good interviewers--even before you have a chance to discuss accomplishments.

The importance of "Tell me about yourself" is reinforced as the topic comes up (or is touched-on) in numerous casts in addition to the valuable Interview Series. Here are just a few:
