Most people have many strengths. Choose your greatest strength as it applies to the position as a Psychiatric Aide. It could be your ability to work with different types of people, your compassion, or excellent customer service skills. The interviewer wants to see how your greatest strength will benefit their organization.

"I believe my greatest strength is my ability to remain calm in stressful situations and when working under pressure. I worked in the restaurant industry before coming into this field, and we were always busy with a long wait for customers. Some customers would be upset with the wait and take it out on me when serving them. I always remained pleasant and provided excellent customer service. At the end of their meal, most of my customers were happy and laughing. I was always the server who made the most tips because I did not let the customers get to me."
