Peppermint_RN's post in Job Interview: What are your strengths and weaknesses? was marked as the answerI'm always honest about my strengths & weaknesses and it always seems to go well with the interview. I always have a few strengths & weaknesses in mind so I during an interview I'm able to verbalize them well without looking too stumped! LOL.
My personal Strengths-
-I love to learn. I plan on returning to school to continue my education & look for opportunities to expand my knowledge, such as doing CEs in my free time, reading nursing journals, or taking certification classes.
- I try to always portray a positive attitude even if I'm not feeling awesome that day. I had multiple customers & coworkers at my last job call me "Smiley" & ask if I'm always in a good mood. You never know when a smile can make someone else's day a little better and make for a better work environment.
Weaknesses:
-I'm a worrier. I'm always afraid I'll mess something up, so I've learned to check & double check info before doing things I feel uncomfortable with so I'm sure I won't do it wrong. I plan for the worst & try to do everything in my power to make sure it doesn't happen.
-Public speaking is my biggest weakness. Thankfully, after taking speech class in school & the multiple presentations I gave during nursing drool, I've learned to hide my fear while doing a speech, even though I'm having a mini-heart attack the whole time! LOL.
