For the record, I have a degree in Human Resources. So while I never claimed to be an expert, I do know a thing or two about how HR works.
And based on my understanding of how HR works, I also have a vitriol hate for HR. To say how well you can answer a silly question such as "What are your weaknesses" should be a measure of one's ability to do the job is silly. It is this crap that's only worsening the structural unemployment crisis we have now. According to HR's logic, despite the fact that you meet all requirements for the position, because you're not capable of giving a canned response to a stupid or selecting feel-good answers on a personality test, you're automatically disqualified.
