Self-presentation, a story about yourself - this is something that should be prepared and well rehearsed before the interview. Some people find it easy, while others, on the contrary, lose confidence during business meetings. We are all different. Very often "impostor syndrome" and doubts about our own competence do not give us a chance to reveal ourselves and show our best side.

First impressions
"No improvisation comes as well to me as the one I have been preparing for three days" (Mark Twain).

"Tell us about yourself" (or "Introduce yourself"). Without preparation, it is difficult to respond to this simple interviewer's suggestion. Let's be honest - impossible. 

Product. You're selling yourself
Picture the situation. In front of the interviewer is a stack of CVs that look pretty similar to each other. What makes you different from the others?

 
 
III. R.R.R. (PAST, PRESENT, PLANS).
R.R.R is the easiest option for self-presentation. You start with your past (education, experience, suggestions and realisations), then move smoothly to the present and your place in it. You can finish this self-presentation by telling about your future plans, what you can give to the company that will hire you.

Incorrect or uncomfortable questions
To test your reactions, the interviewer may ask some rather pointed and uncomfortable questions during the interview. Do not be intimidated or embarrassed. They may be trying to throw you off balance and see how you behave in a difficult situation.
