In a work context, your strengths help you to complete your to-do list, understand client needs, and apply what you have learned in your training. Strengths can be skills or qualities that allow you to overcome difficult circumstances or accomplish challenging tasks. Share with the interviewer those professional strengths you feel will translate well to this role.

If you are feeling nervous before the interview and need a confidence boost, amp yourself up physically, if you are of able body. Research the body language of someone who is confident and relaxed in a seated position and practice. Stretch your arms up high, stretch your back and try to make yourself as big as possible, while paying attention to your body language. Go into a private space with a mirror, look yourself in the eye, and vocalize some self-affirmations.

"I am a self-driven, hard-working person, I have a great work ethic, I feel I'm not a selfish person and would help anybody out to complete a task whatever that maybe. I feel I use my initiative all the time to tackle work tasks every day, if I find an obstacle or hit a brick wall with something I am not afraid to ask questions and seek advice. I see it as part of my day-to-day learning. I am extremely punctual and my attendance is also excellent. I always manage my time every day, setting myself tasks every day to complete my job functions efficiently and in a quality fashion. I pride myself in doing a first-class job every day, I never let my standards slip, or lose pace with what I've achieved at work in the lab. I am a fast learner and am always looking for ways to improve myself. my strengths also include my ability to be observant of the needs of others and my perceptiveness.
