Job Interview Question & Answer: What Is Your Greatest Fear?



How to Answer the Question:

Talk about professional and career-oriented fears only during a job interview. If possible, mention something to show you in a positive light, like how you’re afraid your talents and professional strengths may be underutilized in the work environment. This is an important opportunity to sell yourself during the hiring process. Keep your answers short and professional.

Do not discuss your irrational fear of clowns or your fears about the socio-political environment facing the U.S. Do not mention fears about getting caught doing something illegal or unethical. Do not give the interviewer any cause to fear hiring you. Avoid discussions involving psychology or philosophy. The answer to this question should involve neither your moral compass nor religious beliefs.

    I always answer this question truthfully and I say my greatest fear is failure. I never want to fail and I am always scared of doing so. I think is what a lot of people say when asked this question at an interview.

    worst respone ever^ that is the one that sends up a red flag as a bogus answer with every HR person.
    Also, fearing to fail means fearing to take chances. If you don’t take chances, you can never gloriously over achieve.

    My greatest fear is I have to alive and die after my brother and sister. They both look very strong outside. Their hearts are so weak.
