When talking about shortcomings, they publicize their own advantages secretly

If you want to cover up your shortcomings, especially those obvious ones, I'm afraid you will be disgusted. The best way is to take the initiative to admit when talking with the examiner. However, admitting shortcomings is to stress methods. It's better to blur the key point when talking about shortcomings, or even praise one's own advantages secretly.

When there is an obvious repetition record on a job seeker's resume, he can talk about it like this:

"I don't think it's right to repeat my grade for one year. At that time, I was in charge of the club and devoted myself to the activities of the club. On the contrary, I ignored my duty as a student. When I realized this mistake, I had already repeated my grade. Although the hard work I spent in the club has brought me a lot of gains, every time I think about my repetition, I feel very shameful. I've always been worried about it, and I don't want to repeat it. "

From his words, the examiner was concerned about the work of the person in charge of his club. He guessed that the candidate's social skills would be extraordinary. How clever and beautiful is the candid way that the job seeker shows his or her own ability while telling his or her shortcomings clearly.

We are not perfect people, but we can develop our strengths and avoid our weaknesses, and approach the standard of perfect people. Let's take another look at the dialogue between David and Faraday.

David: I'm sorry, our conversation may be interrupted at any time. But, Mr. Faraday, you are very lucky that the instrument has not exploded at this moment. I've read your letter and notebook. It seems that you didn't say where you went to university in your letter. "

Faraday: "I didn't go to college, sir."

Faraday went on: "I learned everything I could and was experimenting in a laboratory built in my own room."

David: Well, I'm very moved by what you said. But science is too hard, and great efforts can only get meager rewards. "

Faraday: "but, I think, as long as you can do this work, it is a kind of reward in itself!"

This is a wonderful dialogue handed down from generation to generation. It is a dialogue between Faraday, a great British scientist, and Sir David when he applied for a job. When Sir David stressed that Faraday had no formal education, Faraday admitted that he had never been to university, and quickly turned to his strengths - perseverance and diligence. Finally, Faraday was taken as his assistant by David.

This is a kind of typical answer of developing strengths and avoiding shortness. The respondents try their best to publicize their strengths and organically combine their strengths with the job they are applying for, so as to turn disadvantages into advantages.
