What is your greatest weakness

Do not place your foot in your mouth and turn confessional here – being painfully honest about your faults won’t score you any points.The overused no-no is to turn a positive trait into a weakness (I am a workaholic or I am motivated to the point of being driven).A better answer: mention a former weakness you have overcome. E.g you now possess excellent time management skills since earlier in your career you failed to allot enough time to sales calls and writing up sales reports.

Another option: state candidly your analytical skills are weaker than your people skills.
