a****f 发帖数: 944 | 1 I've been asked this question in two interviews. I still don't know what
is a good answer for this, especially for 'weakness'.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks. |
c**s 发帖数: 43 | 2 based on my experience, it's usually better to mention a weakness that's not
directly relevant to the job/company. e.g., If u r interviewing for entry
level engineering, u could say you are weak in management and hope to learn
more from your future team leader and manager (and look eagerly at that guy,
implying that he/she is the one with a lot of mgmt exp you could learn from
). Or, if it's a start-up, then you can say you don't work well in large
enterprise with politics and bureaucracy.
Depending on your language skill, I think an interesting answer is to make
strength and weakness the same thing but still be able to back up with
evidence/stories. |
t****0 发帖数: 235 | 3 you can say a weakness you managed to overcome. This is a question to test
how you react. |
j********x 发帖数: 2330 | 4 Judging from my own experiences, this question is complicated by a lot of
people. Simply state what are the strength and weakness that are
specifically related to the job you are applying for. You got to showcase
your ability to get job done (strength) and things that you might fail to
accomplish (weakness)...
Don't be general, focus on the job content... Being not attractive to women
is not a weakness (sure it is in having sex...)... |
x*****p 发帖数: 1707 | 5 Usually my answer for my "weakness" is:
I can not remember my colleague's names. Some have difficult pronunciation.
So I have to communicate with them a lot so that I can remember everybody.
This is true for me. I do not tell a lie. However, this weakness can enhance
my teamwork ability on the other side. |

e***7 发帖数: 118 | 8 Very good point. Could you please give me an example of a name with very
difficult pronunciation? I have only a couple of colleagues and their names
are easy for me so I'd like to know some difficult names in case I use this
answer in the future.
