Great, you just got that call. You got that job interview. Now, you need to know how to positively present your weaknesses in the job interview. My name is Gloria Campbell. I'm with Advantage Training Systems, in St. Petersburg, Florida, and I've got some ideas on how you might want to do that. The first thing you want to do is number one, be prepared. Know what your weaknesses are, and be very real about it. If you are chronically late for work you might not want to tell them that, but if you want to say something like sometimes I have difficulty staying on task, that's a great way to maybe present that weakness. But then you also want to let the interviewer know how do you compensate for that. Since I do, I know that I have to maintain to-do lists. I know I have to stick with those to-do lists. Weaknesses are expected. You're going to get that question. Know how to answer them, and know how you compensate for them. My name is Gloria Campbell. I'm with Advantage Training Systems, in St. Petersburg, Florida, and you now have ideas on how to positively present your weaknesses in a interview.
