Strengths and Weaknesses

This can be one of the most challenging interview questions to answer. “Can you tell me about your greatest strength/ weakness?” Why would an interviewer ask this question? Employers see some potential in you, which is why they invited you for an interview in the first place. However, bragging by listing many of your strengths in a row is a big no-no. Instead, pick one or two of your greatest strengths and share how you have been able to use them in the workplace.
As for weaknesses, it is best not to deny that you have weaknesses. The key point here is to avoid weaknesses that are in direct conflict with the requirements of the job. In a positive attitude, give interviewers an honest answer about things you have struggled with and how you overcame them. Your goal is to use this question as an opportunity to show that you have high self-awareness and the ability to grow and overcome personal weaknesses to become a better employee and team player.
