Hey /biz/,
Got a work interview tommorow for a great job.
I got the interview through a recruiter that handed me a interview prep sheet.

I've got the experience and quite a few selling points that I've listed accordingly with the sheet.

However, the interview sheet is asking me to name one weakness I've overcome and I'm drawing a complete blank. I know some of my weaknesses for sure, I often procrastinate for one. That would be a red flag though.

What's a good reply should I encounter this question?

Humble yourself but show confidence in your value as a potential employee. Employers want someone who can be humble when it counts, but still confident enough to know when they are right.

i.e tell a story about when you were wrong (but it wasn't your fault and you did nothing wrong) and you had to humble yourself and or your team in order to save it.

Sounds good. That gave me an idea just now actually. Got any more suggestions?

Delegating? Trying not to do everything yourself?

I've never really been in a high enough position of power to do that.

"I'm too critical on my own work, I always seem to look down at my own work and know it can have improvements (it's never good enough) but when I look at it from the outside everyone else commends me on my work ethic and quality of work. I've started looking at it more openly and have realized it's not the total end of the world.

Nice, that's perfect!

This is the #1 easiest question to nail.
> I used to get too caught up in doing work the way I thought it should be in my head. I was kind of a perfectionist, I guess, teehee.
> The problem was I would sometimes miss deadlines because I would have rather missed deadlines than turn in a subparticular product.
> I realized I was over stretching and my coworkers were suffering, so while I still want to make the best possible product, I make sure to include my team so that we can decide as a group where the majority of the work should go so that we can meet our deadlines while still releasing a great product.

This is for any job that has any kind of product. If you have no product based experience:

> I used to try and do everything myself
> Then I learned to ask for help

It's for a content writing job so it's perfect as well!
