Trap Question #1: Your weaknesses

|

“What are your weaknesses?” It’s the biggest trap question an interviewer can ask. A lot of people have heard this advice: “Answer by turning your strengths into something negative, like you work TOO hard or something.”

WRONG. Never state anything negative! The right way to approach this question is to take a moment, and then answer that you can’t think of any weaknesses that would compromise your performance in this new position.

Everyone has had to answer the weaknesses question. How did you handle it when it came up?
