Waarmee ik vandaag moest lachen op het internet
It's funny, it reminds me the answer I gave to the interviewer at my first interview :
- Now that you tell me your qualities, I will ask you at least a drawback
- Mmmh, I think I'm too perfectionnist, I can sometimes take too much time to do something perfectly well...
---------------------
That's not a very good answer - it reveals a bunch of negatives that are likely deal-breakers:
1) You're a perfectionist, which means you may find it difficult to handle mistakes made by co-workers.
2) You're a perfectionist, which means you may find it difficult working on a team with people who are not perfectionists.
3) You're an admitted perfectionist, which makes it likely that you will attempt to cover up any mistakes you do make, rather than admit them.
4) You're a perfectionist and you take extra time to try to accomplish a task, rather than doing it as well as it needs to be done and having it in on time. Most employers don't expect or actually want perfection - they know it isn't attainable.
5) You're full of shit and just told the interviewer what you thought they'd want to hear, meaning that you're much less likely to be candid in other areas as well.
The best answer, of course, would have been "FUCK YOU YOU CUNT I have Tourette's Syndrome ASSLICKER!" It would allow you to scream anything you like with impunity, and they'd be worried about getting sued if they didn't hire you.
