Best interview tips?

Looking for your best interview tips regarding these questions:

-Why are you leaving your current job?

-the dreaded “What’s your weakness?” question

I don’t want to disparage my current employer, even if I’m tired of the spin, re-work, and 6-7 hours of meetings a day which leads to no time to actually get my work done.

I really want to stay positive and focus on what I can bring to the new role and how it will help me grow my skill set. I’m feeling confident in my qualifications overall, however, I’ve felt tripped up by these questions in the past.

Any tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thank you!

    I've totally lied and said my position was being consolidated with another senior-level position to save costs. The truth was a nasty merger and toxic culture that was causing me to sleepwalk.

    My weakness: Saying, 'No' when others ask for help and I already have enough on my plate. I've been working on creating healthy boundaries while supporting a team and delivering independent work.
