Hint
Reveal suggested structure
'I work too hard' and 'I am a perfectionist' are heard as evasions and cost more than an honest answer would. A strong response names something real but not disqualifying for the role, shows awareness of its cost to others, and describes a concrete management mechanism rather than an intention to improve.
