Have you used any cliché weaknesses in the past? If so, which one? I am pretty sure I have used the perfectionist one many years ago.
Using past performance reviews to prep for this interview question is a great idea! After you have that in hand, your response will be authentic and easy to speak to. I like the STAR method to structure your approach.
Thanks for your comment, JJ! Yes, from the hiring manager side, I want to hear authentic answers! And the STAR approach ensures all the key points are covered.
This is so good! I’ve been victim to the first few examples and the STAR method is so powerful here.
Sometimes I also use something I’m currently working on. I used to be a speak technically yo non-technical stakeholders and improved over time to translate my explanations which helped relationships from cross teams
Thanks Ver! I love your idea of sharing something that you're currently working on! It takes courage to be this vulnerable and your excellent personal example shows it! 💪🏼
