There are a lot of ways to translate these questions. As an example: "Tell Me About A Time You Failed". It can mean "Can you stomach failing until we figure things out?" or it can mean "Are you willing to be vulnerable by exposing your failures?" or "What kind of problems you perceive as a failure?". I can probably write another half a dozen of translations of such questions. I don't think there should be a right/wrong translation. And based on that, there are rarely terrible answers. These questions are open-ended on purpose, so people will talk and say things which are essential to them. As an example: “I didn't get along with a coworker.” isn't a terrible answer. It means that interpersonal relations for this person are important. “I struggled to balance work and life.” isn't a terrible answer, but rather show that he/she prefers an environment where the work doesn't occupy all the time/energy. The only answer which I wound consider bad is a dismissive answer (trying to ignore/deflect the question).
