Question 14 of 30

What would you consider your biggest weakness?

"One of my weaknesses is that I often get nervous around people I don't know. I know we all do that to a certain degree, but for me, it has become something I am aware of.

      How to Answer

      This is probably one of the most dreaded questions in a job interview. Answering this question requires self-evaluation and honesty. Remember, whatever weakness you decide to share, make sure it is not a key characteristic needed to perform your job as a phlebotomist.

      "I would say my biggest weakness is that I sometimes take on more than I can handle. I am a new nurse with this determination of not wanting to fail or seeming inadequate to my coworkers. I found it was tough for me at times to find the courage to delegate tasks to my TP, who are more seasoned around patients than me. Building bonds with my team comes naturally to me, so with that as well as good communication, I was able to learn to delegate more."

      Rachelle's Feedback

      Fantastic answer! You show some vulnerability, which the interviewer should appreciate, but also a lot of confidence when it comes to facing this weakness and improving. Nicely done.
