  • 18. What would you describe as your biggest weakness?

      How to Answer

      This is probably one of the most dreaded questions in a job interview. Answering this question requires self evaluation and honesty. Remember, whatever weakness you decide to share, make sure it is not a key characteristic needed to perform your job as a phlebotomist.

      1st Entry Level

      "One of my weaknesses is that I often get nervous around people I don't know. I know we all do that to a certain degree, but for me, it has become something that I am aware of. I now try to attend social activities where I know there are going to be opportunities to meet new people so that I can overcome social anxiety."

      2nd Answer Example

      "My biggest weakness has to be that I take on too many projects at once. While being involved and participating in various things is fun and can be good for a person, I tend to take on several things and then leave some projects unfinished. I have begun to limit myself to only taking on a few projects at a time so that I can devote the necessary time to staying on task."

      "I am too soft, and people take advantage."

      Marcie's Feedback

      This is a good weakness to mention because it can also be viewed positively. By being 'soft,' do you mean that you are very nice and compassionate? Explain to the interviewer that while sometimes this means people take advantage of you, it's also helpful because you're able to connect with patients in a meaningful and caring way. You should also talk about how you compensate for this 'weakness.' Do you make it a point to be assertive when something conflicts with your value system? Have you practiced doing that?
