Every question shot at you will have a logic. Find out the motive. By practice, it becomes easy. Just ask 'why is he asking this question?'. If you find out the answer, then you can frame your own answer for the question shot. For example, the second question, 'Tell me something about you.' The interviewer has some information about you in the form of CV. So now he is asking 'if you have some key info, which is not present in the CV and which would be useful for active consideration for giving you the job.' In this case, you can frame your answer beginning, 'I am ... from ... Basically, I am (a word about your attitude). I am talkative and people-friendly. During my career at (the company where you worked since the last one and a half years), I was given that job to handle (the following responsibilities). Then, you highlight your achievements. Leave a tone that you left the company, or may leave the company with a very friendly relation.
Then, why do you choose an HR career? Here, he is asking to find out what extraordinary HR traits you have. You may reply, that was your passion. You are passionate to observe people's behavior and accept the challenges of handling them in a positive and friendly way to encourage their personal and collective contributions to the organization.
All this can happen if you are very balanced. You exhibit confidence, give a thought for a few seconds to the question shot at you. Then, you will be able to offer a satisfactory reply. Good luck.

Dear Madhurib,
These are questions that seek to know YOUR opinion. You must have had a reason to choose HR at one point in your life, for which you spent 1.5 years working in the same field. By now, you should know why you chose HR as your career.
The question is to tell about yourself. You may give a brief intro on your family and education, and where you are basically located. Then, move to your career, what you did in your previous job, and focus on what you are looking for in a change. For example, if in your 1.5 years of experience you have only been recruiting, you may want additional responsibilities, and the job in question may have that in store for you.
Good luck.

Hello,
Well, I guess everyone who works has their own goals and reasons to choose that profession. When you started working as an HR, this process should have been carried out by you, or even I would say much before that.
For me, I can only say you should sit and find out why you are doing this job. Is it interesting for you? Are you happy about it? But the most important question to ask is "WHY."
Regarding your introduction, it has to be brief. Include your education, areas of expertise, and family background in short. Always mention those points which will help the interviewer understand how you can be a fit for the job. Your skills and interests should be linked with your job.
Thanks
