I just came across this thread . . .
I have to agree with Andy. As a manager, I want to get your perspective on your work, your projects, what you need, etc. Having to articulate these types of things can help you in many ways. First, it helps your manager with ammunition for awards and promotions. Second, it can provide you with a record and information to draw on when you want a salary increase, apply for another job, or face any personnel action. The corporate values section was actually interesting. I saw a job posting recently which required the applicant to discuss a time he brought his enthusism for a project to the rest of the team. Others have asked for examples of leadership. That's not uncommon.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
