누군가 당신의 가장 큰 강점을 한 단어로 표현해 달라고 하면, 어떤 단어를 고르겠습니까? 그 이유는요? - Do you think it is easy or difficult to talk about your own weaknesses honestly? Why?
자신의 약점에 대해 솔직하게 이야기하는 것이 쉽다고 생각하나요, 어렵다고 생각하나요? 왜 그런가요?

Reading
Read the passage with your teacher.
선생님과 함께 지문을 읽어보세요.
What are your strengths and weaknesses?
Loyalty, unquestionable integrity, excellent interpersonal and communication skills,
results orientation are qualities that every interviewer likes. Prepare for specific
example to support your answer. On your weaknesses, don’t be so straight as
with your weaknesses. You can tell the qualities that are not so important about
the position.
The following are good examples:
“ I have the tendency to be workaholic.”
“ I don’t have the patience for some people who do things very slowly.”
“ I have the tendency to come in ahead of deadlines.”
Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정
Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.
한국어 '책임감이 있다'를 직역하면 "I have a responsibility"가 되는데, 이는 '특정한 책임(업무)이 하나 있다'는 뜻이 됩니다. 성격적 강점으로서의 책임감을 표현할 때는 "a strong sense of responsibility"라고 해야 자연스럽습니다. 면접에서 자신의 강점을 말할 때 이 표현을 꼭 기억하세요.
