Question Analysis:
This is perhaps the most common of all the so-called “trick” questions. The real trick here is to transform this question into an opportunity to state your capacity to grow and develop your job skill set. Avoid trite answers like: “I really need to improve my tendency to take on too much work.” or “I often work too hard without taking breaks.” Instead focus on areas or skills that you’re already pretty good at but are still trying to improve upon. Emphasize that you’re constantly working on these improvements and that you’re taking the initiative to get even better at something.
