What Are You Oftentimes Criticized For?
I still get a lot of hits for this question:
What are you oftentimes criticized for? How did you react to them?
So to finally provide some more relevant information for those who’d like to know how this question should be answered, here’s my own answer to that question.
I’m often criticized for being too judgemental. This habit runs in our family and it often works to our benefit that’s why I don’t mind being called, being labeled too judgemental. It makes me easily identify a person not worthy of my trust, thus saving me from a lot of problems in the long run. It also makes me successful in knowing who best to deal with my freelance projects and other transactions. Now if I get told that I’m just being too judgemental – I’m proud of it because as far as I know, being innately judgemental works for me and as far as I know, I haven’t really hurt someone with this trait of mine.
Now how do you answer that question to ensure that you get that short-listed? I think you just have emphasize any bad trait of yours that benefits you without being too detrimental to anyone. Something that will benefit your employer – say being too much of a perfectionist, being OC when it comes to organizing things, stuff like those.
Any other interview questions you’d like me to answer?
