问题     "What is your greatest weakness?"This question has been a weapon frequently used by the hiring manager during a job interview, but most people still have trouble with dilemma(进退两难 的境地) it causes: answer too frankly, and you may lose your opportunity. Provide a prepared answer, and vou will give a false impression, or worse, seem dishonest by saying "my greatest weakness is that I work too hard".
    "It is a tricky question," admits Andrea Kay, a career advisor. I would suggest that you be ready for it, anticipate it, because it is still a question that gets asked over and over again.
    You may use the strategy of mentioning a non-existent "weakness". But you must be cautious and try to name only weakness that has little to do with the job you are applying for. Or you can name a real weakness, but one you are taking steps to improve. Of course, you can always choose not to answer the question at all or ask the interviewer to rephrase (换句话说) the question. But you must be warned: each of these strategies can have drawbacks (缺点).
    "Not everybody is great at everything," Kay said, "but you do not say ’I do not get along well with people’. You do not want to go down a path that gets you in trouble. Do not talk about people issues."
    So why do hiring managers continue to ask this question, with all the dangers to the applicants? Is it fair?
    "Absolutely!" said a hiring director. "If raised correctly, it is one of those questions that can open the door for further discussion."
Why would hiring managers like to ask about applicants’ weakness?
选项 A、They need to find out whether applicants are honest or not.
B、They use the question to explore applicants’ real weakness.
C、They want to create a dilemma for applicants to deal with.
D、They can get to know more about applicants in the discussion.
答案D
解析
