1. What do you find difficult in work/life/relationships (etc)? Answer :Pick a relatively irrelevant skill and say that you don't find it as easy as you'd like, so you're working on it (don't just make this up - think about it and be truthful). Don't own up to a weakness in an area that's important to the role. As with the weaknesses question, you can state certain difficulties because they are actually quite acceptable, even commendable, they'd include: suffering fools gladly, giving up an impossible task, tolerating unkind behaviour like bullying, having to accept I can't help certain big problems in the world, etc.
2. How do you plan and organise your work? Answer :Planning and writing a plan is very important. I think how best to do things before I do them, if it's unknown territory I'd take advice, learn from previous examples - why re-invent the wheel? I always prioritise, I manage my time, and I understand the difference between urgent and important. For very complex projects I'd produce quite a detailed schedule and plan review stages. I even plan time-slots for activities that aren't in themselves organised, like thinking time, and being creative, solving problems, etc. 3. (Follow above question with) - Can you share your mistakes with others? Answer :Absolutely I can - I get the guidance I need, and it may help prevent others from making the same mistake. 4. How to do measure your own effectiveness? Answer :By the results that I achieve, and that I achieve them in the most positive way. If there isn't an existing measure of this I'll usually create one.
