Even though it may be true, it probably isn’t a good idea to tell the interviewer that, from time to time, you suffer from uncontrollable rage. My strategy for answering this question is to avoid it somewhat by answering with a joke: “My biggest weaknesses? That would definitely be garlic, wooden stakes, and crosses.” Companies love a guy who knows the appropriate times to inject a little...
