As your interviewers connect with and consider many great candidates for their Nurse Fellowship program, they know that every candidate has flaws. Your interviewers want to hear that you are cognizant of any shortcomings you have and are willing to do what is necessary to overcome those shortcomings.

This is your chance to promote yourself despite your flaws. Your answer should point out a salvageable weakness; you should admit that you're imperfect but have the gumption to work on your weakness because you are committed to being the best nurse you can be. Explain that--if you didn't perform at your best--you'd feel as if you were failing your program and you would find that unacceptable.

"I feel that my greatest weakness is my desire to be social with every person I interact with. While this has never been a problem during my nursing career to this point, I realize that I need to have boundaries with my patients and colleagues to be productive. While I know this is a positive trait when building rapport with my patients, I will strive to never cross any boundaries with my patients. As a Nurse Fellow with your program, I will hold these same boundaries and always be mindful of them."
