Think about something that you struggle with or know you need to work on. Provide details about what steps you have taken or plan to take to make those necessary improvements and how working on this weakness will benefit you professionally.
"I believe my biggest weakness can at times be time management. I have never looked at my job as a forty-hour-a-week type of job. I put in whatever hours are needed to get my work completed and since I am exempt, my additional hours do not affect the company negatively. I know that I could manage my time and have a bit more freedom and a work-life balance if I were to try harder to do so and I am actively working on doing so."
