Today I will talk about three common weakness narratives that can jeopardize your admission chances.
1) Hard work
2) Communication
3) Leadership
Applicants want to share that their strength is also sometimes a weakness. They change the phrasing of the essay in such a way that instead of hard work, they use the word commitment or perfectionist. There is a lot of scope for the narrative but don’t use the word ‘hard work’ or perfectionist as a weakness. Instead, use ‘lack of delegation’ or ‘lack of prioritization’ as a weakness. This weakness is a genuine one for those who are in the 3-5 years of experience range.
