Answer:
This is another common question which increases the anxiety level of the candidate. The interviewer is not interested in your answer to the question unless you tell about a weakness which will directly affect the work. He is more interested in the way you deal with the question.
Here are some ways to deal with the question:
a.) Offer a weakness absolutely un-related to work – For e.g. I can’t cook though I have been staying alone for years now.
b.) Offer a strength posing it to be a weakness – For e.g. My friends often accuse me of being too conscious about the time to do everything but for me it is discipline and punctuality.
c.) Offer a humorous weakness – For e.g. I have a passion for speed and bikes are my weakness.
