Suppose the job description says American Express seeks "an experienced Project Manager with strong communication and analytical skills to work in a leadership position." In that case, describe your greatest strength is either your experience or your communication, analytical, or leadership skills. Focus on using a keyword in the job description in your answer so the interviewer can see that you have at least one of the qualities they are looking for in their ideal candidate.

Most job descriptions use several keywords to describe the qualities they are looking for in their ideal candidate. Avoid using a strength that is not in the job announcement or that is not related to the Project Manager's job. The interviewer wants to hear that your strength is a quality they seek in a candidate and that you will benefit the company if hired.

"My greatest strength as a Project Manager is my analytical skills. I can take complex problems, analyze and extract data, think critically, and resolve the issues identified. I have over ten years of experience honing these skills."
