Question 4 of 30

What is your greatest strength?

"I'd say my greatest strength is my systems approaches for getting the error-free job done ahead of deadlines and with consistency. That allows me to stay productive and find more work to do when I'm ahead of the game. It also frees me up to step outside my comfort zone to do whatever it takes to help the team. I often set the pace, and I've been told I am a natural-born leader."

  • 4. What is your greatest strength?

      The Goal

      This question tests not only how you perceive yourself but how confident you are in your abilities and how strong a fit you believe you are for this opportunity. The goal is to identify a couple of your strengths, what you have to contribute to their teams, and why you believe these will make you successful in this role. You have to believe it. Go through your previous performance reviews and jot down every positive remark. Leave no stone unturned. You want them to see your value, that you are a desirable asset, and that you'd be a great addition to their teams.

      What You Need to Know

      HireVue's algorithm will look for any signs of a lack of confidence in your skills. They'll also spot indicators of being disingenuous, exaggerating, or telling the interviewers what they think they want to hear. For example, some non-verbal cues are gaze avoidance, the shifting direction of your eyes, frequent body posture changes, restless foot, and leg movements, fidgeting with your hair or pressing your fingers to lips, stroking your chin, covering your mouth or your eyes, among others. Some verbal cues they'll analyze include repeating a question before you answer as if stalling or speaking in sentence fragments. It will also flag any changes or irregularities in your speech pattern, such as a rising and falling tone. So make sure you practice plenty before your interview.
