This answer was pretty good.
He was doing a practice interview for a manufacturing job and picked strengths that where appropriate to his field. However, he really just listed an array of strengths and didn't go into much detail about them. You also probably noticed that his answer trailed off to an uncertain-sounding ending.
First and foremost, you need to sound confident about your strengths. To do this, you should identify your strengths and have them in mind prior to the interview. It's best to have at least three strengths in mind for this question, because interviews may ask, "What are three of your strengths?"
It's important to note that this is an open ended question, and the interviewer does not have a list of strengths that are the right answers.
Answering the question effectively is less about the particular strengths you choose and more about you being able to convince the interviewer you have the right skills for the job. To do this, you want to go into detail about how your strengths make you successful at what you do.
Here's an example where an interviewee went into more detail about his strengths.
To really convince the interviewer about your abilities, use an example of an experience where your strengths came in handy. Have at least one experience to back up each strength you choose.
Now you have everything you need to provide a stellar answer when an interviewer asks, "What are your strengths?"
Thanks for watching.
