What types of things do you say when asked, "Please describe yourself," during an interview? Do you talk about your personality traits, your ambitions, or what?

I don't really have an answer to your question...but maybe some helpful advice...I also had a hard time answering similar questions during mock interviews. So, in preparing, I asked a group of friends how they would descibe me. Their responses really helped me see what easily comes across in my personality and what I probably will need to activly bring up....and maybe some things that I want to NOT bring up! 😉

Thanks for the advice, Gi. Having my friends describe me to myself really helped.
