what ever weaknesses you come up with have a plan in place on how you can remedy them and deliver them along with mentioning your weaknesses.

Kinda what bouwob said, make sure you can spin your weaknesses into something positive. Don't trap yourself with them so that you're stuck in an awkward situation if asked about them in the interview.

We didn't need to know what type of ideal woman you are looking for PT.

I completely disagree with this statement, this is a horrible strategy. An interviewer wants to see a candidate showing some humility and self-awareness; everyone has something that they can work on, and only a naive idiot would expect someone to come in knowing it all. The last thing an interviewer wants to hear is a twenty-something year-old person come in trying to tell them that their biggest weakness is "working too hard."

The correct approach should be to identify a legitimate area that needs improvement and explain what you're doing to try and improve. For example, something like "I'm still not that comfortable speaking in front of a large group but I recently joined Toastmasters to try and improve and am making noticeable strides" would be a great answer. It not only shows the self-awareness that you can identify a problem that needs work but are also taking steps to rectify said problem.

You should also add "willing to light other's farts" as this will demonstrate a team player mentality.

OH man, this stuff is GREAT! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I have never been so amused with a singe thread! What is sad is that BoSox's comment could almost be taken literally which makes it that much better!

What kind of job are we actually applying for? That might help in determining the strs/wknss
