Hey,
Here's some pointers to help you think about areas for examples fo genuine weaknesses:
- Communication style: are you assertive (clear, concise) or passive; does your style change when you are with senior/high power people
- Managing difficult situations & people: how do you do this today & how can you improve
- Something goes wrong or doesnt happen the way you wanted: how do you deal with it? What areas can you improve at
Regarding your example of Negotiation, my advice is to not use it. Negotiation is a difficult subject, hard to explain and most of us are shit at it. You will get better at over time. For now, think about above pointers I have given.
Basic rule is to dig a bit deeper into your life, school, internships, work experience and analyse what can you improve. Come up with genuine examples (avoid I work super hard, I am perfectionist etc etc) and practice storytelling techniques for impactful delivery in interviews.
