Start with your current job and go downword and than explain your education.... 

I am here because the position you are advertising is "tailor made" for me, if you will be kind enough to afford me a few minutes of your valuable time I will endeavour to explain why employing me would be to our mutual advantage.

Just start off with saying your full name,your current position and the current company ur working at and then describe yourself in3 words  i.e: hard working,passionate...etc or instead just mention your top skills i.e :team management,communication skills...etc

This would be a simple and a straight forward answer.

The best candidate should use this question to lead the interview by taking the interviewers to ask him the questions he/she is prepared for.

this could happen by focussing on skills that are not mentioned in the interview, for example: I am a highly committed and organized person, I work excellent under pressure, I love working with teams,

Trust me: the interviewers will ask then about your team working skills, your organizations and planning skills,

Just state your name, basis things about yourself and why you are there, and very briefly your education and why you are there
