Don'T Magnify Your "Shortcomings" In The Workplace.

The business training is over, and each trainee comes to the stage to give a report. The report's PPT template is unified, one of which requires everyone to talk about "personal strengths and weaknesses", and sometimes this question will be expressed in terms of "personal strengths and weaknesses".

General recruitment interviews and open selection will also be familiar with this problem. As a non professional HR, I will always be there. Interview So greet the candidates.

On one occasion, a business manager told his three shortcomings in the report, because he said he had only one advantage and three shortcomings. I was very impressed. He said, "my shortcomings are bad memory and forgetful". Another one I forgot.

These two shortcomings are enough for me. In the workplace, imagine which manager is willing to hire a "forgetful and forgetful" employee. If he is asked to give him a special job, will you be relieved?

New graduates, not much Workplace Experience, I guess he magnified his own shortcomings, and asked: you say you are forgetful and forgetful. Please listen to the recent examples of forgetfulness.

For a moment, he did not think of the case behind this "weakness". I hint, "is it to rent a taxi, to throw something away, or to go out to forget the key?" or else?

I laughed. My daughter learns to eat at noon every day and comes home in the evening to ask her what she eats at the school room or what she eats at her grandmother's house at night. In fact, the dialogue between mother and daughter about "what kind of food to eat" is a formal concern. As a child, most of them are not interested in this kind of question. The answer is also perfunctory, not that he (she) has a bad memory. For example, when I first joined the office, my mother asked me about working hours almost every day. Now I often ask girls to finish school. Today, she told you, tomorrow you will ask, it is a daily family dialogue, does not mean that my mother or myself bad memory.

I often "flaunt" my "good memory". When I think my memory is good, I actually give myself a hint in psychology. I want to have a good memory. "Good memory" is the state I want. So I became a good memory in others' eyes and in my own mind.

If you really have bad memory or forgetfulness, accept your own "shortcomings". Only accept can you allow yourself to improve and improve, because you can not remember everything in detail, or you can't remember that it is not important in itself. More than 10 years ago, a former colleague took a taxi and dropped a more than 10000 yuan computer on the taxi. Fortunately, he found it later. When others despise him, he says, "I don't believe you didn't careless and careless." I still remember his eyes.

On the topic of "merits and demerits", the advice given by professionals is: Advantage There should be no more than three (specific or emphasized advantages).

Therefore, as a career person, if you have the opportunity to talk about your strengths and weaknesses before the public, speak more about your strengths, so as to enhance your self-confidence. As far as shortcomings are concerned, one is not enough. Some of the shortcomings you choose to criticize and "fight hard words" are likely to be magnified by others, affecting your so-called "career". Because many of the so-called managers in the world tend to be picky and picky.

Although the merits and demerits of the answer are personal subjective evaluation, which is greatly influenced by personal self-confidence and value orientation, the advantages and disadvantages may be inconsistent with the actual situation (such as the above), but your statement will affect the examiner's judgement of your ability to a certain extent.

1, "avoid the truth", talk about the insignificant shortcomings, and not too frankly expose the major defects in their ability structure. There is also a "speculation" approach, that is, to talk about their own "security shortcomings", which are shortcomings on certain occasions, but on some occasions, they may be advantages, such as you are very difficult to get along with those who are irresponsible to their work, often due to demanding perfection of their own work and lead to delays in work. However, this kind of "safety shortcoming" is easy to let the experienced examiners think you are "glib tongue", so be careful.

2, we should pay attention to expression, expression, intonation and so on. Sometimes I can express my hope and efforts for "going upstairs". I should talk about my shortcomings and not focus on shortcomings. I can focus on my determination and actions to overcome my shortcomings.

3, do not generalize, can be combined with specific examples, although the examiners did not explicitly request.
