There are definitely better ways to phrase the infamous weakness question. This gives me idea to start asking: "Are there any aspects of how you work, which you’re trying to improve?"
That would gauge whether they're introspective, self-aware, and self-critical.
- belval 4y agoOne phrasing that I got in an interview was "What would your current or previous managers say were your strengths", quickly followed by "... say you could improve". It was interesting because it actually got us in a different discussion on how employees are evaluated at their company. My personal take though is that the candidate should be self-critical enough to be able to tell me what their weaknesses are and how they are mitigating them.
