What is Your Biggest Weakness? HOW TO ANSWER THIS HARD INTERVIEW QUESTION! **EXAMPLE INCLUDED**

What is your biggest weakness?
What is your greatest weakness?
What is something that has challenged you?
What have you recently worked to improve?

These types of questions might make you internally groan, roll your eyes, or cringe. Interviewers and recruiters don’t ask this question as much anymore, but it is still pretty popular. Don’t be your own worst enemy and say something that will result in a rejection.

In this video, I share with you my strategy for picking a weakness to share when asked this question and I even provide you with an example answer!

**PRO TIP!** Have 3 weaknesses prepared. I’ve been in interviews where they ask for me to share my biggest weakness (one) or where they ask me to list and explain my top 3 weaknesses. Be prepared for anything!

Hi, I watch your videos and they are very helpful. I am preparing for an interview this coming Thursday. In one of the videos you mentioned that we can download from your website 32 most common questions asked in interviews. Could you please share a link? I wasn't able to locate them. Thank you.

This is again a game play, not the real assessment of capability of a person... Why does recruitment not get regulated to stop this medieval immitation approach?

Just a bunch of stereotypes. Some common stereotypes you can triger and will not get discriminated (non-critical). Some stereotypes you cannot trigger because you will get discriminated for them. Neither has anything to do with actually doing a job...
For example, a person can be scared to deal with people and still deal with people well. Statistics will prove that even if it is only 10 or so %. But, a person may get rejected/discriminated based on all these non-scientifically proven stereotypes/biases...

I recently interviewed for an account manager position with a staffing company. I felt the interview went very well and I was told at the end of the interview that I would hear back from them on Friday, which was two days away. As is usually the case, Friday came and went without a response. After about a week of waiting, I sent a follow-up email to the hiring manager expressing my high interest in the position etc., etc. The next day, I heard back from him and he said he hadn't forgotten about me and that he would be getting back to me, but to be transparent, they are interviewing other candidates. That was over a week ago and I haven't heard anything since then. What are your thoughts?
