15. What area of electrical inspection would you like to improve on?
Why the Interviewer Asks This Question
The interviewer wants to hear that you are humble and can admit when you have an area of weakness. Identifying an aspect of your profession that you could improve shows you are self-aware and motivated to find ways to make that happen. Describe what you feel could be refined and what steps you are taking to improve.

What to Avoid
You do not want to sound cocky or arrogant by saying that you have no room for improvement. Everyone has some aspect of their job that could be refined. Think of an area that could use a bit of improvement.

Answer Example
"One area of electrical inspection I would like to improve on is inspecting commercial buildings. Most of my experience has been inspecting residential homes, but I am looking for a new challenge. I have inspected four commercial buildings and liked how different it was from inspecting residential homes. That is one of the reasons I applied for this position, so I can improve inspecting commercial buildings since that is generally what your company does."
