What Are Your Strengths And Weaknesses?

This is a very common question that many interviewers will ask a potential employee and it is crucial to get it right in order to impress the employer.

When thinking of your strengths, it is always a good idea to try and relate them to the role you may be applying for. If your job involves serving customers then you can say that one of your strengths is having a great rapport with customers and always being polite and helpful - this will obviously be looked upon favorably by the interviewer.

A few more useful strengths to list are as follows:

• Great time keeping
• Always meet deadlines
• Can handle stressful situations and pressure
• Smartly dressed
• Confident
• Willing to learn new skills
• Great listener and can take on board any advice

When listing your weaknesses, you need to be very careful and the best strategy is to try and make the weaknesses actually sound positive. You certainly don't want to put a potential employer off by saying you are always late or can be rude and abrupt therefore you need to think long and hard about suitable weaknesses to list.

A few appropriate weaknesses you can list are as follows:

• Very eager to get everything finished in one go
• Never content with what you've done, always striving for more
• Can work 'too hard' and never switch off
• Always hard on yourself and wanting to do better

As stated earlier, you need to take care when listing both your strengths and weaknesses and where possible apply these to the job you maybe being interviewed for.
