I would suggest that honesty is great regarding the weakness question. I'd go as far as to say, "I anticipated you might ask this...."Communicate this
-100% yes. As I said in a comment here, no interviewer has ever said, "that person is too passionate."
What's your greatest weakness? I'd have to say "honesty". I don't think honesty is a weakness. I don't give a fuck what you think.I would suggest that honesty is great regarding the weakness question.
Very true, as you've said and others in this thread. One caveat I have about this comes by way of a story: was once in a job placement program where we were taught resume, interview skills, and part of the education was having each person being filmed on camera doing a mock interview. There's one guy, it was very clear he was trying to show he was very enthusiastic about the job. He was smiling like crazy, kept lunging in his chair toward the interviewer to show excitement, kept moving closer and closer, near climbing over the table. Don't do that. =)
