31. What is your greatest weakness?
How to Answer
Pick a weakness that is not a core skill for this position. Be candid in your answer, recognizing that you aren't great at something and acknowledging your need to improve. Be sure to have an action plan in place for improving this weakness.
Perhaps you are watching TED talks to gain skills in a particular area, reading the latest-and-greatest book on the subject, or taking a seminar at a nearby community center. We all have weaknesses, so don't be afraid to share yours!

1st Answer Example
"I believe I could improve on some technical skills, including Excel and PowerPoint. Currently, I am at a beginner to intermediate level; however, I would be more comfortable at an advanced level. I have enrolled in an evening/weekend workshop for the next six weeks. We will see how stellar my skills are after that course!"

2nd Answer Example
"I am not good at delegating to others. When I become submerged in a project, I don't like to give away any control. While this can be good, it can also inhibit the outcome of the project and my growth as a team player and individual. I am currently working on this, as I know it is a deficit."
