Just by checking out videos on UA-cam demonstrates how serious you are taking this interview. I know you are going to give your best and you have my best wishes going forward. Please let me know how it goes.
@BBenoist Thank you so much. I literally just finished, and just as you said, these expectations on questions surfaced. It was a deep dive into my mindset on how I handle tasks, a team, communicate, and my story. I kept it simple yet energetic. I hope for the best from here and have joyful expectations.
I got a congratulations email two days after. Advancing to the final stage which is a culture call interview with other department members 🥰 I am happy. Do you also have a video on this?
Great tips here! This kind of interview can be intimidating, but knowing the perspective of the effort it took them to pull the team together for it is a good assurance that they're already serious about hiring you.
Thank you for sharing these helpful tips for acing Meet the Team interviews! It's always nerve-wracking to meet a group of people all at once, but your advice on preparation and building rapport is truly invaluable. Your clear and concise explanations make it super easy to understand and implement these tips!
Thank you good sir. I'm on my third - and hopefully final - interview today and it is with my prospective teammates. I've done a fair amount of research and your video has helped me to feel much more prepared and overall less nervous. Fingers crossed!
Hi Bill! I'm currently waiting on an upcoming interview next week with the department director and a senior team member for my dream job. Watched a few videos for advice and yours is the most helpful one. I'm glad I saw your video and thank you for all the great tips. I'm a lot more confident now and know much better how to be more prepared. 🙌🏻
thank you so much for this. I am not sure what to expect and I have had a habit of rambling on, so this helps as far as my delivery. I may have overprepared too (like i did with the first interview) because its a career that will be new to me so I am anxious. I just want to land the role and perform well.
@@BBenoist I wasn't confident how it went but the dynamic was spot on what you mentioned here. 3 of the team members kept it pretty conversational i figured t get a feel of my work skill and how i fit with them. There was one who I suspected was going to give me grief cos she has a strong legal background from my research . Sure enough she dove deep into many technicalities to where at some point i got nervous, But i kept reverting to smiling and diverting the energy even if I may have been rambling. I also had some thoughtful specific technical questions for her which i suspect may have got her impressed cos she cracked a smile . Well something worked out because I'm now onto the final interview with the Director:)
@@msberryjay8867 That is really good news. Congraluations. This video may help for that final interview: ua-cam.com/video/u9GtKYwJi5M/v-deo.htmlsi=5xdmrh56HE3S3xvV
Thank you for the tips! I have to say that I find this types of interviews kind of weird because my last interviu was 10 years ago. I feel old as a lot has changed in 10 years!

Hi Jason, my thinking is the person will be sharing his viewpoints on the position, obstacles, staffing, and things, in general, to be aware of. But please, if you have the opportunity, let us know how the 1:1 went.
I am not sure I understand this question. If you are interviewing with the team you would ultimately be managing then my thought is the chance would be very slim (but anything is possible). However., if you are interviewing as an individual contributor and the team did not see you the same as the manager did - then yes, I could see that happening. With that said, there is also a caveat too. If the team is not a mature, well oiled team, then their opinion would not carry as much weight. It really is going to boil down to that specific manager. But as I said in my opening statement, these interviews are often (not always) held until the end because of the time and resources involved.
I have not heard of this happening from any of my clients, so I can only guess why. My first thought is it is not a company practice, but rather a manager's practice. Maybe the manager is overwhelmed and delegating this first interview. Whatever the reason, I would treat the interview the same as what I discuss in the video - keeping in mind these would be team mates. One thing I would check on in this case would be the reviews on Glassdoor. It's either a solid company with a seasoned staff or a company in chaos. Good luck with this if it's actually something you are facing.
I did that once and it backfired....it was a technical interview and I slurred and my brain wasnt working. I knew I blew it, afterwards I continued with drinking 😂
I am at this stage and I want to give my best

That is absolutely true. Very seldom will hiring managers schedule these interviews for all candidates.
Thanks. Very helpful. Watched this right before my meet the team interview and it helped me to get into the right mindset!
Thank you. I am sending you best wishes for success with your team interview. 👍

As a hiring manager, can you ever be turn down after a team interview? Do they have a major say if you join the company or not?
I am not sure I understand this question. If you are interviewing with the team you would ultimately be managing then my thought is the chance would be very slim (but anything is possible). However., if you are interviewing as an individual contributor and the team did not see you the same as the manager did - then yes, I could see that happening. With that said, there is also a caveat too. If the team is not a mature, well oiled team, then their opinion would not carry as much weight. It really is going to boil down to that specific manager.

What are your thoughts on why a company might have a candidate meet the team in an interview *before* meeting with the hiring manager?
I have not heard of this happening from any of my clients, so I can only guess why. My first thought is it is not a company practice, but rather a manager's practice. Maybe the manager is overwhelmed and delegating this first interview. Whatever the reason, I would treat the interview the same as what I discuss in the video - keeping in mind these would be team mates.

Loosey Goosey - go in drunk? Sounds intimidating ......I would be afraid to ask them questions...
LOL!
