I suggest that it's important not just to state a weakness but also to demonstrate the steps taken to address it, the progress made, and how its improvement is being measured. That way, it shows self-awareness, proactivity, and a results-driven approach.As for imposter syndrome, it’s a tricky one. If framed well, focusing on how you’ve tackled it (e.g., through mentorship, self-reflection, or measurable achievements that have built your confidence), it could work. However, there's a risk that it might signal something else, which isn't ideal in a high-pressure legal environment. A safer approach might be to discuss a skill-based weakness and how you've actively worked to improve it.
