59. 󰲑 Example of a strength Solving Problems I am a solutions-oriented person and a quick learner. In my role as an electrical engineer, I learned to perform well under pressure when designing equipment because our team would not be able to win a contract unless we produced the blueprints quickly, with as few resources as possible. In these circumstances, I am not afraid to ask questions to figure out the challenge. I do extensive research for every client, so I can be extra prepared. https://www.coursera.org/articles/strengths-and-weaknesses-interview
60. 󰲑 Example of a weakness Lack of experience with skill or software I haven't had as much experience with Python as I'd like. When I decided to make a shift into data analytics, I knew I'd need to use a statistical programming language to perform efficient analysis. I signed up for a Python for Everybody course, and I've found I really love it. I'm excited to start applying the techniques I'm learning to help make my workflow more efficient. https://www.coursera.org/articles/strengths-and-weaknesses-interview
