레슨 만드는 중...
1
- What are your weaknesses?
2
One of the most common questions you'll get during an interview when you're applying for a job.
3
Now, over the years, I have asked this question to so many applicants and I am shocked by the answers.
4
So today I'm gonna teach you how to answer that question properly.
5
First, let's talk about what you don't do.
6
So when your employer, your interviewer is asking you, so what are your weaknesses?
7
Oh, I have none.
8
Don't ever say that.
9
It is a lie.
10
You know it's a lie, I know it's a lie.
11
When people say that, I just say get out of here, don't let the door hit you on the way out when you say I have none.
12
And don't say, well, I never thought about it or no one ever asked me that.
13
Seriously, no one ever asked you that?
14
Maybe you think you're being smart with the ply.
15
Don't do that.
16
It just shows you are dishonest and also it shows you you lack self awareness.
17
Those are not good answers.
18
Also, here are the ones I hear all the time that are also it's a big no-no.
19
I'm kind of a workaholic and a bit too much of a perfectionist.
20
Give me a break.
21
Don't try to turn it and put a positive spin on it when you're being asked what are your weaknesses.
22
Another one I hear all the time, oh I love people, I love working with people.
23
Really, I don't like you that much right now.
24
Okay, that's not good.
25
That's not what you do.
26
So here's how you answer, what are your weaknesses?
27
The key is don't make that about your personality.
28
If you're gonna share something, make that about your skill set that you could work on.
29
Here's what I mean by that.
30
When you share something about your personality, to an employer it could feel like, well, I don't know if you could fix that, that maybe it's who you are.
31
But if you make it about a skill set, then it's something that you could work on.
32
So I'll give you an example, what are your weaknesses?
33
Well, you know, I'm more of an introvert and sometimes I notice that I am shy to share my ideas when there's a room of people.
34
Now, see that's a good reply if you are an introvert because here's what's going through my mind.
35
My mind is thinking, okay, this person is shy and introverted and that's okay.
36
So it means that in certain scenario, maybe I need to ask this person more to speak up.
37
I could say, hey, you know what?
38
What do you think of this?
39
Or in my mind I'm also thinking, well, maybe through time once this person becomes more comfortable with everybody else within a company, she could share more ideas.
40
See, that's what's going through my mind.
41
That is fixable.
42
Or maybe this person could go take Toastmasters and develop more confidence and work on her public speaking skills a bit.
43
See, in my mind, all that's fixable.
44
That's fine, that's perfectly fine.
45
Here's another scenario.
46
If you share something about your weaknesses not in terms of your personality, but your skill, but also your plan.
47
What have you been doing to work on it or what are you planning to fix this?
48
So let me give an example, okay.
49
So what are your weaknesses?
50
Well, you know what, I'm a very creative person.
51
I tend to come up with all kinds of ideas and when I get these ideas, I'm very excited and I wanna share that with everybody, all my managers, my coworkers and I love to just to share.
52
And what I realized over the years is sometimes these ideas, sometimes they're good and sometimes they're not so good.
53
So it is something that I know I need to work on how to prioritize some of these ideas and work on filtering.
54
And in fact, recently, I have been reading a few books.
55
One it's called by Richard Koch, 80/20 Principle and also Getting Things Done by David Allen.
56
And through the book, I've picked up a lot of techniques and tools.
57
Now they are helping me to filter out some of these ideas and how do I prioritize if there's something that I'm working on all the time.
58
And of course, I'm always open to any coaching from you that can help me to channel my creativity into higher productions for the company.
59
Boom, you see how that sounds?
60
You are not bragging, you're not lying.
61
You're saying, hey, I know that I've got this problem, I know it's something that I need to work on it, it's something that I am working on and here's my plan and at the end you're asking for coaching.
62
From my perspective as a CEO, as an employer, I know, okay, first of all, you're reading books.
63
Damn, that's a big plus right there.
64
And you're learning, you're self aware and you know what you need to work on and you're coachable.
65
To me, those are all like plus, plus, plus, plus from that simply reply.
66
So what are your weaknesses?
67
Next time when you get this question, what are gonna do, how are you gonna answer it?
68
Comment below.
69
Share with me if someone was to ask you this question, what are your weaknesses, how would you reply to the best of your ability.
70
And also let's collaborate.
71
Maybe my other fans they could see in the comment and see who can come up with the best response.
72
Go ahead and do that.

이 비디오에서 배울 3가지 실전 스피킹 기술
면접에서 "당신의 약점은 무엇인가요?"라는 질문에 어떻게 답해야 할지 알아보는 이 비디오는 IELTS 스피킹 뿐만 아니라 일상 영어 회화 연습에도 큰 도움이 됩니다. 첫째, 부정적인 질문에 긍정적으로 대응하는 기술을 배울 수 있습니다. 둘째, 약점을 성격이 아닌 기술적 측면으로 재해석하는 방법을 익힐 수 있습니다. 셋째, 개선 계획을 함께 제시하여 신뢰감을 주는 법을 배울 수 있습니다. 이 세 가지 기술은 영어로 의사소통할 때 자신감을 높여줍니다.
듣고 주목해야 할 발음 특징
영어의 자연스러운 발음을 연습하기 위해선 연결 발음(linking)과 축약 발음(reductions)에 주목해야 합니다. 비디오에서 "what are your weaknesses"라고 말할 때, "what are"이 /wɑːtər/로 축약되는 것을 들을 수 있습니다. 또한 "don't ever say that"에서 "don't ever"가 /doʊnt ˈɛvər/가 아닌 /doʊnˈtɛvər/로 연결되는 것을 확인할 수 있습니다. 이러한 발음 패턴은 shadowing 연습을 할 때 특히 중요한데, native speaker처럼 말하기 위해선 이런 세부 사항을 따라해야 합니다.
Native처럼 말하는 법: 리듬과 강세
영어의 리듬과 강세는 의미 전달에 큰 영향을 미칩니다. 비디오에서 화자가 "Don't ever say that"라고 강조할 때, "Don't"와 "ever"에 강세를 주어 중요성을 나타냅니다. 또한 "skill set that you could work on"에서 "skill set"과 "work on"에 강세를 두어 문장의 핵심을 드러냅니다. shadow speak 연습을 할 때는 이러한 강세 패턴을 정확히 따라야 합니다. 또한, 문장의 리듬을 따라가면서 pausing(일시정지)도 중요한데, "So here's how you answer, what are your weaknesses?"에서 쉼표 뒤에 짧은 멈춤이 있는 것을 확인할 수 있습니다. 이렇게 하면 자연스러운 말투를 연습할 수 있습니다.
이 비디오를 활용하여 영어 회화 연습을 하다 보면, 면접 뿐만 아니라 다양한 상황에서 자신감 있게 영어를 사용할 수 있게 될 것입니다. shadowing site를 찾아 연습해 보세요—반복해서 따라하면서 발음, 리듬, 강세를 완벽히 익히는 것이 키입니다!
이 영상의 문법
화자가 가장 많이 쓰는 문형을 영상 속 실제 표현과 함께 정리했습니다.
| 문형 | 영상 속 표현 |
|---|---|
| 현재완료진행 have/has been + -ing — 전에 시작해 지금도 계속되는 동작 | have you been doing · have been reading |
| 현재완료 have/has + 과거분사 — 과거의 일이 지금도 관련이 있을 때 | have asked · I've picked |
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
