Overview: One of the trickier questions an interviewer might put to you is "What are your major weaknesses?" What are you meant to say? If you list all your weaknesses, aren't you just giving the interviewer reasons to think that you aren't up to the job? If you read most other interview advice guides, they will say that you should list some weaknesses that are just as much strengths. Things like "I am a perfectionist" or "I work too hard". But these responses are JUST PLAIN WRONG.
