What is your top strength?
This is a standard question asked in almost every interview. The interviewer wants to know what your strengths are and how they make you a strong candidate for their opening.
Choose a strength that relates to the job you are applying to. Discuss how you can use the strength to be an asset to the company and the Talent Acquisition team.
"My biggest strength is my ability to put anyone at ease and get them to open up. It is a huge asset when it comes to speaking with candidates during interviews. I may go into an interview with a set of questions to ask, but I am able to weave them into a natural conversation which helps the candidate relax. The more relaxed a candidate is during the interview, the easier it is to get a good read on their personality and to see if they have passion for the work they do. This helps me identify the strongest candidates for a role. In my current job, I am the team member our leadership turns to when they need to whittle candidates down quickly as I have the strongest track record for choosing new hires who perform well and stay with the company."
