Re: Interview tomorrow. What\'s your strategy for this question?

Example-
If you could be any part of a car, which part would you be and why?

Pop that question on me in an interview, if you want me to walk out without another word.
Because clearly, either you're trying to lose me, or you're so whacky that I don't want to work for you.
I'm a poker dealer, a 100% automaton job, and I still get asked for my weaknesses. I explain that would be like asking the mailman for his weakness--the job is just too simple, and not nuanced enough, to have strengths and weaknesses.
"I show up on time. My appearance is neat. I'm very proficient at all phases of my job, including technical performance and customer service. My bosses love me, my co-workers love me, and the customers love me. Now you tell me, what are my weaknesses?"
The interviewers always frown.
