      2nd Answer Example

      "This is super cliche, but it's also true. I am not good at delegating to others. When I become submerged in a project, I don't like to give away any of the control. While this can be good, it can also definitely 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."

      "I expect everyone to work like me. But as long as the company targets are met it doesn't matter how everyone works, they don't have to be the same as me."

      Stephanie's Feedback

      This is a weakness that can be re-directed as a strength, since you're a hard worker and naturally want others to work hard and drive outcomes. However, wanting everyone to work just like you do can also cause interpersonal challenges in the workplace, so I suggest further developing your response to show how you're working on this weakness and what you're currently doing to improve.
