Yesterday I had a job interview and they asked me about my biggest failures at work. I didn't know how much honest I should be and what to say or not to say. How would you answer this question?

    Just be honest. Recognizing your weaknesses and failures makes it easier for you to fix them. You can simply tell them that these are things you are... working on.
    HR is getting more and more focused on soft skills, including honesty. Any sensible person can tell when you're lying or exaggerating. That breeds a bad rep. So my advice is that you be honest and them HR that you're working on fixing your failures.     more

    Convert your failure to strength. For example sometimes delay in meeting the deadlines because of being keen to detail and trying to perfect your... work. more
