chronic narcolepsy in pressure situations, such as interviews.

My greatest weakness is finding out the home addresses of interviewers who don't hire me, crawling through their bedroom window at night, and leaving a plate of cookies and warm milk by their bedside.

That's funny...they always ask at the end of each interview what is your greatness weakness.

Such a stupid question. It's only asked so your potential employer can see how you look when you're telling a lie for future reference.

My inability to answer tedious interview questions like "What is your greatest weakness."

My greatest weakness is coming up with original questions to ask someone I am interviewing.

It's been a while since I've been on that side of an interview for that stupid question.
One time I asked if they wanted me to say, "workaholic or perfectionist, because those are the two responses, right?"I said, "I don;t know what you are really asking me.What's my weakness in life, my career, my last job?"
I then said, "If I discover a personal weakness in this job, I'll do what I can to improve it."
It was a short notice second interview and I was in a pissy mood. Didn't get the job.
The few times I had to hire onsite people I never ask that question. Closest I ask, and beg them to be honest and it's without judgement, "what do you want to achieve here, and with what knowledge you have, what do you think being here might hold you back from?"
I think it's potential better insight into the person, as well as what the outside opinion of the job is. Also provides some thought onto things that could be changed.
- But if asked today, I would say my weakness is QBN and not being able to fully quit it.ETM
