Question 27 of 39

What are some of your weaknesses?

We all have things we can improve on, so do not be afraid to share them. The interviewer will likely take note of these things and may even provide you with additional training or mentoring in these areas if possible to help you excel. The interviewer wants to hear that your weaknesses are not critical for the job you are applying to. Think of a couple of things you could improve upon that are not necessary for the job, and openly share them with the interviewer. You might even include some fun things that are not job-related. For example, you might state, "Painting is definitely a weakness for me! If you need someone to paint a poster, I'm probably not your guy!" The interviewer will think it's clever, and painting is not essential for a job at Whole Foods.

      Anonymous Answer

      "One of my weaknesses is when I am passionate about something, I will devote endless hours to it. For example, I love arts and crafts, and whenever I start on a new project, I am in a completely different world. I love being creative and it's a time for me to fully express myself through my art. I've created a light-up card, and I love going from watching How-To youtube videos to trying to plan and create my own card style, buying unique materials, and finally creating something of my own that you can't buy anywhere."

      Marcie's Feedback

      Excellent answer! You have chosen a good weakness to mention because it's not entirely negative. Consider trying to connect how your passion for arts and crafts extends to other areas of your life. For example, are you passionate when it comes to your job and/or school as well? Also, you might briefly discuss how you keep this exuberance in check. How do you control it so you don't end up wasting too much time on a passion project when you need to get other things done?
