QUESTION 36 OF 45

What's a misconception your coworkers have about you, and why do you believe they feel this way?

This may be a trick question to get you to identify a weakness you have or are perceived to have. Interviewers will ask this to uncover a weakness or to determine how self-aware you are. They are also curious whether you'll answer this question positively or say something negative about yourself or your coworkers.

Since the interviewer is asking you to reveal either a real weakness or behavior that appears to be a weakness, it may be hard to answer this question. Your answer should either point out a minor flaw that you are working to correct or discuss a strength your coworkers and managers are unaware of. In any case, you should remain positive when answering this question.

"My coworkers sometimes mentioned that I'm not too social. This is because I tend to focus on the job more than socializing while at work. They don't see that when I'm not working, I spend a lot of time enjoying the company of my friends who share my interests in the outdoors."
