Naw. Never go personal unless they specifically dig deeper. Keep it casual and professional.

>I also enjoy coin collecting, chess, and fencing.

This. Hobbies are ok as long as it is not something like "I play WoW on my offtime."
"Well, this would be a good time to get the court mandated disclosures out of the way..."
Tell them you like long lunches and afternoon naps. Then ask them what their policy is on watching YouTube videos at work.
>Tell me a time where you had to improvise.
I once ate a salad with a spoon because I was too lazy to wash a fork.
>You don't look like you eat a salad.
It was a chicken salad. Well chicken marinated in Italian dressing
>tell me 3 strengths and 3 weaknesses
How do I answer the weaknesses part? I want to honor their question by not giving a bullshit answer, but I also don't want to make myself unfit for a position.

1. Ghosts
2. Bears
3. Fire
There are few people that are resistant to all three.

>This. Hobbies are ok as long as it is not something like "I play WoW on my offtime."
Why? WoW raid leading can have beneficial skills.
Whats point of asking for hobbies if you can't mention normal hobbies like manga?
>>1173172
>How do I answer the weaknesses part?
You don't.
>I'm here to sell myself, so naturally it is not in my interests to short sell myself. Let's just say I believe I'm well suited for the job.
The weakness question is extremely autistic and only pleb tier interviewers ask it.
This answer is also good:

Dumb question deserves a dumb answer.
What answer are they hoping for?
CP
Drugs
4chan?
>"tell me about yourself"
Just a regular ole motile sophont, clambering about the surface of just another anonymous rock in the cosmos, consuming nutrients and eventually reproducing if this job market doesn't go down the shitter, amirite? XD
