I've heard this one before and it sounds alright except for the impatient part.....not sure about you but if I was an employer, I would value patience and understanding.....I'd try replacing that with overly meticulous or something to that extent....

Rachel to the rescue

You HAVE to answer with tangible weaknesses that can easily be turned into a strength after a short period of time doing the job;

(If you are going for a merchandising position at Effem)

I have never worked in a consumer packaged goods environment before however I am confident that with my aptitude for business, I will be able to recognize the business' challenges and identify areas for improvement.

Strengths must always be presented in a 'I will still grow' way;

I pride myself on my ability to disseminate lots of information in a short period of time, due to my strong computer skills. I will still continue to improve those skills to maintain them as a strength.

Capisce?
