Pick a weakness that is not a core skill for this position. You can be candid in your answer; recognizing that you really aren't great at something and acknowledging your need to improve. Be sure to have an action plan in place for improving on 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 maybe you are taking a seminar at a nearby community center. We are all human with our own weaknesses, so don't be afraid to share yours!
"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 myself in an evening/weekend workshop for the next six weeks. We will see how stellar my skills are after that course!"

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.
