What are Your Weaknesses? - Sample Answer by Linda Raynier

Interview tip: "What is your biggest weakness?" by FirebrandTalent

[ProfessorHeatherAustin]

Hey guys! The interview questions "what are your greatest weaknesses?" can be the most intimidating. This video will give a GOOD sample answer that you can use. What do you struggle with the most when it comes to job interviews?

[healthyvoicetips]

20 years, I was adviced to choose a strength and turn it into a weakness. I guess that is not relevant any more! Great tips!

[stagefightclub]

Such freakin' good advice. I'm a fairly honest person when it comes to interviews so I'll generally tell them pretty much what my weaknesses are, but I never thought to mentioned specific weaknesses not related to the job I'm applying for. Sounds so simply yet that never crossed my mind. Definitely took away something from the video.

[HeatherGerhardt]

The greatest weakness is a tough one, but I find that if you can point to a solution that was achieved after a "failure", it shows a willingness to learn from past issues and an effort to always strive for improvement! Great video!

[LakesideTable]

Such great insight! Finding a weakness that doesn’t directly relate to the job is PERFECT!!! I never would have thought of that. Thanks!

[DalDhaliwalOfficial]

Great tips and information Heather. ‘What are your greatest weaknesses’ is always a hard one to answer. Thanks for sharing.

[MotivatedCodePro]

This is a great video. A tricky question for sure and one I have asked many interviewees over the years - always interesting to see how people respond. And honestly, identifying my weaknesses is one of my weaknesses because there are so many to choose from!!

[edmyoga]

Heather your videos are SO great! Love you tips on answering with confidence and control!

[Chantmagick]

Great tips, Heather. This question gets me every time despite being a strong interviewee and a public speaker! I'll keep these ideas in mind the next time I interview.

[plancheaugustine]

For a long time I used the 'Use a strength as a weakness' method, which I always thought was an obvious skirting of a real answers -- your tips clearly show that interviewers see right through this strategy. Thank you for providing a much smarter/more effective way to answer 'What are my greatest weaknesses'. 👍

[VictoriaLioznyansky]

I interviewed so many people in corporate and in my business, and I love asking this question. It's always fun to hear what they come up with :) Thank you for great advice!

[drbonesshow]

Too many folks make important life decisions based on their weaknesses rather than their strengths.

[paulineenewman]

Yes this a tough one to answer in interviews. Great tips.

[antygona-iqew]

Telling the interview that you are not a good creative writer when you are applying for sake position is like adding insult to injury.

[myemmotion]

Great job, Heather! Loved it! :) Being honest is crucial while answering to this question. It's also great to touch the exact the same subjects with you and both giving our own perspective. In fact I was to publish "What Are Your Greatest Weaknesses" video this past Monday, but delayed it due to work trip.

[imaldreng]

Who's still watching this video August 2021. Very helpful. Thank you so much. I love your content . Stay safe! 😇☺️

[selfleadershipwithsab]

Hi Heather - great video! I too have suggested to friends and clients the "name a weakness that isn't directly related to said job" tip. I think it is genius.
Really enjoying your videos, thanks for sharing!
