How to Answer the Interview Question: What Are Your Strengths?

When it comes to talking about our strengths, we can sometimes hit a brick wall. Typically, we aren’t great about talking about ourselves, particularly in a positive way. However, you can expect a question like, “what are your strengths?” or “what is your greatest strength?” to show up in at least one, if not many of your interviews during the job search process.
In this video I share with you how to answer this question AND how to figure out what your strengths are if you aren’t quite sure where to begin when it comes to answering this question. I’ve also got a few resources for you!

[@robertbrumit228]

Thank you for everything!!!! I landed a job!!!!

[@edespage2643]

I have an important-to-me interview this week. I've watched several of your videos and taken scads of notes. I'm practicing these in the mirror! You have given me so much insight, and I thank you so much!

[@kristendawn7103]

I am so grateful for you!!!

[@latashaharris5598]

I haven't had an interview for a very long time. I also haven't ever thought deeply about the questions being asked at an interview. I really appreciate the time you have given to these videos and I look forward to recommending them to my daughter who is in college and preparing to begin interviewing for her career field. Thank you !!!

[@LifeWorkBalance]

Thank you for sharing them with your daughter!!

[@kellybsings]

I never thought about looking at my performance evals for strengths!!!! Thank you!!

[@LifeWorkBalance]

Yay! So glad this helped you.

[@user-hk7un1cg9v]

Thank you.

[@oliverjackson9008]

Thank you!

[@LifeWorkBalance]

Thanks for watching!

[@mariaguerreroguerrero3119]

Thank you

[@LifeWorkBalance]

Thank you! Good luck on your next interview!

[@lawrencerosen7113]

I have to thank you for saying something that I have never heard before. All the others mention "successful outcome" and just stop there. Great - hundreds of people stood there cheering and clapping! By contrast, you actually bothered to say "or gained meaningful insight." Just sometimes, I believe that at least one of the presenters really does care.

[@LifeWorkBalance]

Thank you for watching!!

[@nwezejennifer8321]

Thanks so much for the information your sharing here it's educative.I am a nurse and I want to know , how do I answer this question ❓ tell me about your carier pathway

[@LifeWorkBalance]

Great question! When an interviewer asks about your career pathway, they're essentially asking you where you see yourself going (and maybe even a little about where you've been). How and why did you choose to get into this field? What have you done to move from one level of expertise to another? Where do you see yourself going in 3, 5, or 10 years?

[@Lombardi54]

Your videos are great. Is there an option to add Caption, please?

[@LifeWorkBalance]

Thank you for your feedback! Unfortunately I have not added captions or a transcript, but it is something I am working on!

[@Jewels3480]

I thought in another video you said that we shouldn't look at personality traits

[@em-jonesx07]

I think that's just for weaknesses, as personality traits aren't easily changed - therefore a negative trait is a negative responsibility for the managers to deal with
