Biggest weakness I always see in interviews....


...is people run me through all the places they've been or the positions they've had...but to use a sports analogy, they tell me they played in the game...but never tell me if they won.

So if you can talk about all your past jobs and experience in terms of how you took something from point A to point B, it does label you as someone who gets things done and tends to set you apart. And it's not bragging...it's just focusing on what you did instead of the duties you performed...

Good luck!
