What is your biggest weakness?

We all have some weakness. What is your weakness? Show that you are self aware. Know your weakness and show how you are working on it. Show the actions taken to overcome and trying to be a better version of yourself. You are ready to improve and grow.
We should answer this question in the manner that I know my weakness and am proactively working to improve. Watch out for any job critical weakness.
Do's
• Show that you know yourself and tell about your weakness
• Narrate the actions you have taken to overcome this challenge
• Show the progress you made
Don'ts
• Don't give a list of weaknesses
• I do not have a weakness. Everyone has some weakness, how come you don't have.

Deliberate practice improves our success in an interview

Practice is the act of carrying out an activity again and again, to gain mastery over an activity. Psychologist Professor Anders Ericsson coined the term deliberate practice. Talent is important but it is the deliberate practice which makes an ordinary man into extra-ordinary person.

Deliberate practice is purposeful and systematic. You need to have a specific goal, stay focussed, avoid distractions, follow a regular practice schedule, and step up the game in terms of tougher challenges, enable correct feedback to build and gain mastery. Breaking down a task and improving small chunks through regular practice with immediate and correct feedback helps hone the expertise. Deliberate practice is learning by doing and stepping into an uncomfortable zone.
