Wendy: Thanks for coming today. I’m Wendy McIntosh - HR assistant manager. Nice to meet you.
Clovis: Nice to meet you, too. I’m Clovis Strauss. 
Wendy: Please, have a seat. 
Clovis: Thank you. 
Wendy: It says on your résumé that you’ve worked for Intellicorp for 5 years. That’s a quite an exciting company. Why do you want to leave Intellicorp?
Clovis: I really like working at Intellicorp, but I feel I’ve gone as far as I can there. I’d like to take a stab at something more challenging. 
Wendy: Well, where do you see yourself in 3 years?
Clovis: In 3 years? In 3 years, I’d like to have a sail boat. I work hard, but in my free time I like to go sailing. 
Wendy: A sail boat! That’s great. Well, before I ask any more questions, I’d like to know what you know about our company. 
Clovis: I know that you’re the fastest growing logistics consultancy in North America. When I was getting my MBA I did several case studies on your CEO, Ted Haggart. I think his approach to management is innovative. That’s why I think this company is a game changer in the industry. That’s also why I want to work here.
Wendy: Thank you. And I agree with you. I joined L-Tech for the same reason. Well, speaking of management, how did you get along with your managers at Intellicorp? 
Clovis: I have a great relationship with my managers. Actually, I’d like to ask you a question.
Wendy: By all means. 
Clovis: Is the management style here really as different as it seemed in my case studies?
Wendy: Yes, I think so. Employees are empowered to make critical decisions without interference from their superiors. In fact, our organization is so flat that we don’t really have managers. We don’t even use the word “manager” here. Instead of “managers” we have “collaborators.”
Clovis: That’s amazing.
Wendy: Now, can you tell me about one of the biggest challenges you faced in your last job and how you overcame it?
Clovis: Well, there was this time when…

In this episode, we discuss Annie Ernaux’s writing in The Years alongside a paper by Jenefer Robinson entitled ‘Style and Personality in the Literary Work’. We consider Robinson’s assertion that an author’s style expresses their personality, and set it in the context of influential views of style formulated by such modernists as Flaubert, Joyce, and T.S. Eliot, and by such literary theorists as Barthes, Bakhtin, and Kristeva. Ernaux’s own study of literature coincided with the heyday of literary theory in France. We use Robinson’s paper as a starting-point for reflection on the purposes and effects of the impersonal style Ernaux crafts in The Years.

Well this podcast takes a fun approach to showing you how! Here's the video again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWUspuQ5T4A

It's no real surprise why everyone is so worried about answering this really hard interview question. A lot of people feel like they're put on the spot. In a way they are. The hiring manager is being a little sneaky and is trying to weed out some of your weaker areas.

The thing to do is to remain calm and be honest. Don't feel like you can't talk about some of your actual true to life weaknesses. However make sure they are work-related and be sure to remember this one major tip.

As long as you say with confidence that you're dealing with your weaknesses and that you make it clear by choosing weaknesses that are not important to the core of the job opening you're interviewing for you will be just fine.
