Job Interview Question & Answer: What Are Your Strengths?



How to Answer the Question:

An employer is looking for work strengths and examples of how you have excelled at previous jobs. Highlight your strong job qualities specifically relevant to the company or work you’re interviewing for. Talk about your strengths with customer service, employee relations, work dedication, and other qualities a boss may desire in prospective associates. Keep your answer to the point and do not become talkative.

This is not the time to discuss strengths you have at the bar or while playing video games. This is also not the time to discuss job weaknesses. Never reveal weaknesses to a potential employer. Do not take this speaking opportunity to discuss pay or salary, work benefits, or other things best left for a different part of the job interview. Answer this question to the best of your ability and keep your answers tailored to work or job-related experiences only.

    I think saying something like
    ” I work well in fast- paced environments ”
    or
    “I have good communication skills”
    would work as an answer for this question :)
    I hope this helped

  3. yours truly.:

    Employers want someone who is friendly and able to communicate well with others. They don’t want someone who will “slack off” or be late to work. Just listr things that describe you in general as a person and you should be just fine.(unless your a bad person) ;)

    Even though I had enough money to retire, I would love to continue serving the company as long as I can stand still. I am a very dedicated person to the job thats entrusted to me, so wherever I still feel the happiness or enjoying to do the things which I won’t feel boredom or fed up…I will still continue doing it.
    I am hoping that it will be the last job I will be working until the age steals my strength.

    I am looking forward to work within your very respectful company.
