"what is your greatest weakness?"
How do I answer this?

"blondes"

Bourbon, usually.
be honest but also highlight some concrete things you've (supposedly) done to improve yourself in that area
say you hate conflict
Garlic
Just say you sometimes are too direct when talking to people.

that i don't know my greatest weakness

"I always feel weird answering this question, because I like to think that if I note any weakness on my side, I take the appropriate steps to fix or compensate for that weakness. Like my last job, I had hundreds of customer projects every year, with dozens of customer engagements weekly. It was hard to keep up with, as you might imagine, but to make up for any potential disorganization that may happen, I adjusted to become more diligent with my scheduling. I religiously used my calendar, synced it to my phone. Set alerts for big events, and had a physical notepad for everything I knew I had to complete that day. So my point is, sure, you could call me disorganized if you spoke to me the first day of that job, but by day 2 I've already compensated, rendering the label 'disorganized' moot. It's a weird question."

Try just being honest. I always say that I work poorly if I'm being micromanaged.

Retard. Honesty wont get you anywhere

I'm not going to answer that question, let's move forward with the interview.

Well the old cliche "I'm too organized", "I work too hard" answers are lame. Interveiwers are sick of that shit.
>>1615279
I'm a faggot
"I care too much :^)"
Oh, you meant jobs interviews, I just say something like:
"that I sometimes have trouble balancing quality of work and speed of work, and will once in awhile get too wrapped up in perfection and lose track of time"
Some employers hate it and won't call, but some respect it and as long as you aren't going for any sort of management it just tells them they need to check in on you once in awhile to tell you to hurry it up.

>Answering glib, superlative questions

>>1615279
I think my answer was sometimes I'm too dedicated or something, because (as I left out) I'm mildly clinically obsessive

>losing my dignity in front of a personnel manager
You should answer the "greatest weakness" question with "losing my dignity in front of a personnel manager"

I'd say that I have no weakness then explode near the hottest object in the vicinity

>I sometimes grope women that smile at me
>customers, clients, vendors, coworkers, subordinates, bosses, I'm not picky.

"I can read x86 better than I can write it"
>>1615587
Some people like that too. Ideal answer gets some level of sympathy or empathy from the people asking, so if they're the kind to say they're too hard working too then you have an immediate link.

If they ask you this question, you have already failed, so you might aswell be your regular spastic autist that you really are and maybe even shit on the floor, it won't considerably lower your chances of getting a job, because by then, they are 0 already anyway.
Let me explain, HR cunts care about you being a "normalfag" and "fitting in". The fact that she already asks that sort of a question, goes to show that she is forcing herself to have a conversation with you, since the question itself is generic and forced and therefore doesn't feel comfortable around you. If they really doubted about your qualifications, they wouldn't bother to even invite you to the interview, since they can see what qualifications you have on your resume. And on top of that, what does a HR cunt know about anything anyway, besides asking retarded questions from people?
>>1615587
This. Plus, be glad if they only ask for your biggest weakness. If they're capriciouss they ask for a random number like "tell me your four biggest weaknesses" just to throw people off who have memorized a single "perfect" answer or even the classic three weaknesses.
If it's a weakness that is relevant to the job, mention it honestly. They're going to find out anyway.

I hate micromanagement too but there's no way in hell would I ever go from there to "I work poorly."
>>1615728
I'd fucking hire the person who wrote this in a nanosecond.

>My strength is so strong that its duality is inheritely larger

"Honesty? That doesn't sound like a weakness..."

You answer with something positive that can be seen as a weakness, like generous

And then they fire you. Wow, you just wasted two months of everyone's time and added a line to your CV that looks really bad. Good job!
The scent of onions. No matter how many onions I cut I have never managed to develop a resistance to their tear-inducing scent.
I still try though, or else I'd just wear goggles. I have not given up yet, which applies to many of my activites.
