How To Handle The Question "What Are Your Greatest Weaknesses" In Interviews
Debra Davenport (Executive Professional Mentor, Licensed Career Counselor & Employment Agent) gives expert on How do I handle the question, "What are your greatest weaknesses"?
I love the question "What are your greatest weaknesses?" because it's a trick question which traps a lot of people. A lot of people feel that they have to answer the question of where their weaknesses lie by stating things that they truly are not good at, and that's not true. We want to spin this question around into a positive. So perhaps try saying things like, "One of my greatest weaknesses is that I don't have a lot of patience for work that isn't done in a timely manner, or work that isn't done to very high levels of excellence, which I'm committed to in my own work." So things like that will help to put a positive spin on what could be potentially a very dangerous question. So rehearse those questions and your answers very carefully ahead of time, before you even get into that interview.
参考译文：专家给出怎样解决英语面试中这个问题的回答：你最大的弱点是什么?
我非常喜欢这个问题，因为它是一个棘手的问题，其中陷阱很多。很多人觉得，他们必须回答的问题，他们的弱点在于说明的东西，他们是真正的不擅长，这不是真的。我们要转移到这个问题的一个积极的范围内。因此，或许说这样的话，“我最大的弱点之一是，我没有很多的耐心工作，或者是我没有很出色的完成工作，这个工作是我自己承诺的。“因此这样的事情，这将有助于把积极的自旋，这可能是一个潜在的非常危险的问题。因此，在你面试之前，这些问题和你的答案要非常仔细提前排练。
