I hate how much bullshit interviews are lol. i mean who really believes that someone wants to work because they admire the staffs friendliness.. we need money! That's why anybody is shows up.
I would like to thank u for your help, time and work doing this, last April I had my first job interview in english, on day before I was watching your videos to practice, and I got the job. Thank u very much!!!!!
That's fantastic, arpegius2008!! Thank you so much for letting us know and congrats on the job! We'd love to hear more (and mail you a tshirt) by filling out: tinyurl.com/74lmldk. Thanks!
This is really aggravating how this question basically requires you to brown nose your way into the company's good side. I understand wanting to hire the right person for long term, but if you're a young person getting interviewed for a low level job as a busser or in fast food, why the heck do you think I'm here?!? Sorry, thanks for the help Snagajob, and I don't mean to just sound like whiny cynic, but I really hate and fail to understand this question.
Studied numbers 1-9 and applied Monday , called back Monday , interview on Tuesday and was hired on the spot 💞 thank you so much I feel like I sealed the deal when I asked " what's your company culture " when she said do I have any questions for her. New Retail Associate for the Limited!! Booyah
+Mikayla Williams Congratulations! We are so excited for you! Great job following up and asking about their company culture. We would love for you to share your story so we can celebrate your success: www.snagajob.com/resources/share-your-story/
+Mikayla Williams We had some technical issues with the survey yesterday. Sorry about that. Try resubmitting today. We are looking forward to hearing your story. Congrats again!
I know how that feels, but Automotive Pioneer Henry Ford said, "FAILURE IS THE OPPORTUNITY TO BEGIN AGAIN, THIS TIME MORE WISELY." Ever since I read that I've learned from my mistakes, e.i, I had 5 interviews which didn't get a job, so I analyzed what I did wrong in each one, and it soon dawned on me what they were, and for the 6th interview I got hired. Good luck in you job-hunting, and don't give up!
Great question, Andrew. You don't have to but sometimes it can help you communicate but at the same time you don't want to use your hands too much, move them too fast, or use big motions because that can be distracting. But don't over-think it! The main thing you want to remember is to be yourself!
I actually want to thank you guys for putting these videos up, I had a my very first interview a few weeks ago and I remember the night before watching your videos. Thanks to your video i'm glad to say I got the job! These videos are very helpful, please continue putting them up.
I've studied these videos for my job interview back in May and it took about 6 weeks and 4 interviews but because of these snag a job videos I got hired at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas! 😊 thank you guys these tips really work!
yessss, i was so anxoius about having a job interview tomorrow and these videos are everything i needed. The way you present them, the length, the examples...thank you so much!!!
I feel that as a customer service agent a good practice to have in mind is understand that customers may not always be right - but they d8a7 sure better be first. Customers is the heart of the business.
Thank you for your advice, no callback yet from either place. What's interesting is that the interview with my second choice went worse than my first-choice interview... lol. I think the first one was probably my best interview yet :) It was fun and I learned a lot. Now i'm just crossing my fingers that I'll get the job, the manager seemed to really like that I volunteer at a Thrift shop near my house.
+D.nanaa lopez You're going to do great! Here's some tips to calm your nerves - www.snagajob.com/resources/calm-the-nerves-before-an-interview/. Good luck and let us know how it goes!
These videos are really helpful :) I'm hoping to get a job this summer and I've applied to several places thanks to your website. I'm gonna be watching these videos to help me in case I get an interview :)
Thank you snagajob, I had been unemployed for six years and then I watched your videos which I found very helpful and now ( due to you guys) I'm working at a job I love , Thank You soooo much :)
That's great, jo smith! You completely made my day. Thank you for sharing :). We'd love to hear about how we helped and your new job (and send you a tshirt) by filling out: www.snagajob.com/resources/share-your-story/. Congrats!!
I'm sorry to hear about that, Deborah. Are you checking your applications and resumes for errors and typos? We here that this is one of the main reasons people get overlooked. Also, are you following up on your job applications? That's a great way to stand out to employers! As for your previous addresses, I can't really speak for employers on how much they weigh each part of the application. It really depends on the employer's preference.
Hi, Mark. I can't seem to find what you're looking at but it's probably a log in for their online application. The employer may want you to create an account on their system.
Good question. You may not want to use the word "procrastinate" as it may lead the interviewer to believe you aren't very proactive. If you procrastinate because you are working on a lot of other projects or tasks, I would talk more about trying to do too much and working on how you prioritize items on your to-do list.
WOOOOO! CONGRATULATIONS!!! Thanks so much for sharing your story with us! This really makes our day! We're so excited for you and we're glad our videos could play a part in your job search success!
notes: they ask this question to know if you're looking for their job or just any job. Answers: focus on the company itself, research them- talk about what about them you admire? have they won any awards? focus on what the role means to you & why you're a great fit (skills, passion and experience) Mutually alligned goals 2:10 example of this PRACTICE, PRACTICE....PRACTICE!
Great job!!! Don't forget to write Thank You notes to the interviewers! You can even deliver them in person! It can really help you stand out from the crowd of other applicants. Good luck and please let us know how it goes!!!
You're welcome! Your first answer would actually make for a great comment to tack on the end of your answer, "...and because after interacting with the other employees and speaking with you, I really see myself working here and as a part of this successful team."
This video helped me so much! This was the first question my interviewer asked me, and he only asked a couple. It was a short and sweet interview. They offered me the job on the spot. :)
That's awesome +Amaryllis Torres! So happy our videos could help! We'd love to hear your story and help you celebrate - www.snagajob.com/resources/share-your-story/ :)
Thanks for the feedback, Christy! Sorry about the fast talking. Sometimes our "talent" gets nervous being on camera so they might talk too fast. We'll make sure they slow down in future videos.
I'm going for a couple interviews tomorrow. You guys have been super helpful =) We'll see how it goes, I'm crossing my fingers that I'll get one of them... But I do have a question, I would much rather have one of the jobs I'm getting an interview for over the other, but if the one that's my second choice calls first, what do I do? Frankly, I just need to get a job, I've only ever had experience volunteering at a thrift shop.
you guys make totally different of jobs or recruiting website ...definitely lively ,easier to find,helpful and more fun...that's reason why I subscribed. ^_^ have a great day!
Snagajob I don't know what I would do if I hadn't learned your tips! They helped me struggle and improve through nervewracking job interviews, from my very first one at Spotlight video, to my recent one at tj maxx! Guess what....? :D I got the job at tj maxx! Thank you so much for taking the time to help me learn valuable info about interviews.
Thank you so much, jazminestryder .! You completely made my day :). We'd love to hear more (and send you a tshirt) by filling out: www.snagajob.com/resources/share-your-story/. Congrats on the new job!
These videos are great! I'm teaching a Professional Development class for California College San Diego, and I am going to show these to my students! :)
This was helpful! I looked up the website to try to personalize my answer for "why I want to work here." I have my second interview of the summer tomorrow morning (I just got the call to schedule the interview today) so unfortunately I do not have time to really practice. My dad told me not to talk about my school accomplishments and only talk about past work experience but the problem is I have only had one other job at Dunkin Donuts and the job I am interviewing for is a clerical position so I don;t really think they will be impressed with me or my past experience.
Hi *****! That's very exciting. Check out this article for some tips for your second interview: www.snagajob.com/resources/tips-for-your-second-interview/. I think you're okay to talk about extracurricular school experience to go over your dedication, attention to detail and organizational skills. All of which are important in a clerical position. Good luck and let us know how it goes!
Great question, Deborah. We have a video that may help you with following up. Check out our the video "Follow up on job applications" from the "How to find a job" playlist on our UA-cam channel and let us know if you have any questions. As for the background check, it really depends on what kind of checks they are doing. I know that's not incredibly helpful and I'm sorry about that. Your best bet is to be honest with questions they ask you on an application.
Hi +Monikka! I'm sorry to hear that! That sounds really frustrating. Check out this video and let us know if you have any questions: Three tips to hear back from employers - How to find a job [Part 1]
Take your time with these types of questions. Employers are looking to see if you've demonstrated the types of skills they're looking for in the past. If you're applying for a customer service position, it's a good idea to come with a few stories about how you've dealt with difficult customers.
when the interviewer askes me about my weakness- can I say that I tend to procrastinate and I am working on it by priortizing things! or should I come up with something else?
I was really good with all my questions, but I think i messed up because I didnt really know a lot about the company. I even made friends with the whole of the people that worked there and the manager, I am so upset I didn't get the job though. I feel like I will never ever get a job again!
I like the video about the what's your weaknesses because, I know I do have them, buy nervous to say anything about it. Now I know why they ask?? Also on why you want to work here, is also a good video, I usually come up with a good answer. I'm going to keep watching these working videos. Thanks...
I've used many of your videos in my classes teaching teenagers how to get their first job. I would love to see a video about what teenagers should wear to an interview for a part time summer job. Thanks for all the great videos :)
Thank you for posting these suggestions. Unfortunately, when I do hear from employers they are telling me that they've chosen someone else. Getting real discouraged. I will admit I've moved around quite a bit due to trying to find a job (4 different states) If this is hurting me, how can I fix it when no one will ask me in to an interview to explain? The applications all ask for previous addressess, so I have to tell them or they would see on background check right?
why do wanna work here? is a stupid question umm because you're hiring lol i need money to eat my kid needs things if you don't work you cant eat or do anything else and You're suppose to work and i hate jobs they claim you need 2 or 3 years experience even fast food smh then when you apply and apply they wont hire you even if its your first job and you have tried more than enough times smh its frustrating
Hello kim ...im going to have my first interview but i wanted to see if u have a video that way i can have a better picture of what its going to be like im really nervous
I am currently searching for work in the customer service call center field. I have been ask the STAR questions. Tell me about a time when. Can you help me in that area. The questions are difficult only when I feel like I'm looking away or rush through.
Thank you for your answer. Have checked and learned to streamline my resume a little, so that is fine. But, with applying online...how do you follow up? Can you give us a proper way to do that? A lot of these opportunities do not give a phone number, so I should send another email? Thanks for all you guys do!
Very interesting! Thank you for the advise. Hopefully this will help me with a job interview that I have today! Without this vids I would have done very poorly!
That is such a great quote, byronzeroful! Thank you so much for sharing it. And thank you for sharing your job search story with us. Rejection is hard to take for so many of us in our job search but your story of how you've learned from it is truly inspiring!
***** That's great! Congratulations!!! We're so excited for you and we're so glad we could be a part of your job search success! We'd love to hear more and send you a t-shirt! All you have to do is share your story here www.snagajob.com/resources/share-your-story/ ! Congratulations, again!
I am 16 and I am interviewing for Harris teeter next week and I was just wondering what I should wear. I feel like I shouldn't wear a full on office look but I don't know what exactly can you help?
I like to flip it. Why should I work for you? Excellent people are hard to find! When you know your value and have what it takes, it should be beneficial to all.
Hi, I have an Interview on 1507/2013 for higher position (in Office of Student Affairs) in the same institute where I am working now. Can u give me some interview tips and some questions could be asked by the interviewer.
I'm 17 years old and going for 2 job interviews(working at either a pharmacy or keyfood). Do you recommend me to wear business professional or casual(properly)? It's not like im going to work for a company or anyting.
hi i just apply to jobs on snagajob website when is my interview i got email today saying that i should be patient while they rewiew my applications that i apply today on snagajob website when do i have interview
I hope I'm getting the job that I interviewed for today. However, the interview was very short {5 minutes} they didn't ask all of these questions only like 3 really ask any of these questions they only asked where I worked before {which I told them that I worked as a cc at king soopers for two years, and a sales associate/cashier 5 months} which is what they're looking for a CC and someone who sometimes works the register as well. they asked me if I was from where I'm from and I said yes. then they asked when I could work, {which I told them any time} and they asked me if I could weekends and holidays, which I told them I could, because I know weekends, and holidays are the busiest days for a grocery stores. Also Holidays as well, people come in even the week before the holiday to come and shop, so they always need help at that time. they did ask me if I had any questions for them and I asked if they still did the orientation they used too and they said no it was all on computer, and then they said ok and that they had other interviews, so they'd give me a call.
Theses videos are very help can you you guys do one with the question tell me a time when you had to provide customer service and how sis you handle it and what was the outcome
Ok first of all i want to let you know i never comments on youtube videos! But for you guys i specially created an account cus i really want to Thank You! :) Your videos and tips are amazing!! Yesterday i attended my first group interview and it was actually my first serious interview in big retail store & i could not believe my self i was so confident :) I am not sure i will get the job or not ..hoping for the best! That lady said they will call us in few days if we got the job but overall it was a great experience cus of you guys :) Thanks Guys! xx
omsairam 247 - That is so sweet of you and thank you so much for your kind words! I've shared them with the team :). We've got our fingers crossed for you and please let us know when you hear back! I'm sure you rocked it. ~ Kim
Soo got their email,did not get the job :( i really needed this job! Interview went well but i guess some other candidates had around 10 years of experience in retail. May be thats the reason. At least i got good experience.
I on the other hand did not have any experience but dressed professionaly etc now i am thinking to apply for fashion retail store. Should I wear pants and blazer or i can wear fashionable dress, jeans, top and blazer etc.
Hi omsairam 247 - I would stay away from jeans, but your other options sound great! Check out our Pinterest board for some ideas: www.pinterest.com/snagajob/womens-interview-outfits/. Good luck!
Hi, Adel. I'm sorry to hear that! Hopefully, we can help! We have a video on our UA-cam channel, "Five Quick Interview Tips" that may answer some of your questions. Also, check out the rest of the "Job interview questions and answers" video series that is also on our UA-cam channel.
It amazes me the amount of BS you have to spew at a company to get them hire you. They end up hiring a good talker.
I know right, they end up hiring real good liars, not good hard workers in the end.
Just get good at lying ig
Exactly I just need money to pay for my classes.
interviewer: why do you wanna work here?
me: for the love of money
You'll get a week or two at best, trust me I know I worked at Sprouts. They have a serious management problem. Good luck, just watch your back.
I hate how much bullshit interviews are lol. i mean who really believes that someone wants to work because they admire the staffs friendliness.. we need money! That's why anybody is shows up.
FrankenDoodles right lol
I would like to thank u for your help, time and work doing this, last April I had my first job interview in english, on day before I was watching your videos to practice, and I got the job. Thank u very much!!!!!
That's fantastic, arpegius2008!! Thank you so much for letting us know and congrats on the job! We'd love to hear more (and mail you a tshirt) by filling out: tinyurl.com/74lmldk. Thanks!
This is really aggravating how this question basically requires you to brown nose your way into the company's good side. I understand wanting to hire the right person for long term, but if you're a young person getting interviewed for a low level job as a busser or in fast food, why the heck do you think I'm here?!? Sorry, thanks for the help Snagajob, and I don't mean to just sound like whiny cynic, but I really hate and fail to understand this question.
Studied numbers 1-9 and applied Monday , called back Monday , interview on Tuesday and was hired on the spot 💞 thank you so much I feel like I sealed the deal when I asked " what's your company culture " when she said do I have any questions for her.

Dear Snagajob,
Thank you so much for getting back to me. I find your videos very helpful, please keep making them!
Also could you make a video on the question "Tell me about the worst supervisor you ever had."
I'm sorry to hear about that, Deborah. Are you checking your applications and resumes for errors and typos? We here that this is one of the main reasons people get overlooked. Also, are you following up on your job applications? That's a great way to stand out to employers!

If you procrastinate because you are working on a lot of other projects or tasks, I would talk more about trying to do too much and working on how you prioritize items on your to-do list.
I just went for an interview today and I learnt from this video just how much I didnt know about answering these sort of questions.
WOOOOO! CONGRATULATIONS!!! Thanks so much for sharing your story with us! This really makes our day! We're so excited for you and we're glad our videos could play a part in your job search success!
Interviewer: Why do you want to work here?
Me: so I can get my shit together.
😂😂😂
I'm very late watching this video but I'm so excited that I was able to help others with their job search! Thanks for including me in your video!!
notes:
they ask this question to know if you're looking for their job or just any job. Answers:
focus on the company itself, research them- talk about what about them you admire? have they won any awards?
focus on what the role means to you & why you're a great fit (skills, passion and experience)
Mutually alligned goals
2:10 example of this
PRACTICE, PRACTICE....PRACTICE!
Great job!!! Don't forget to write Thank You notes to the interviewers! You can even deliver them in person! It can really help you stand out from the crowd of other applicants. Good luck and please let us know how it goes!!!

interview question what motivates you? if you guys could do a video that would be awesome
Dane Earl Thanks for the recommendation!
I have an interview today and was fretting over this specific question. This was VERY helpful! thank you :D
She said a very important thing which is practice practice practice in which I miss it too much
Take your time with these types of questions. Employers are looking to see if you've demonstrated the types of skills they're looking for in the past. If you're applying for a customer service position, it's a good idea to come with a few stories about how you've dealt with difficult customers.
when the interviewer askes me about my weakness- can I say that I tend to procrastinate and I am working on it by priortizing things! or should I come up with something else?
The process is so needlessly difficult and inauthentic: "Who can BS this set of questions the best?". Ugh! Thanks for the tips though.
Great video, great advice and tips on how to make yourself stand out from the crowd at the potential job company
I was really good with all my questions, but I think i messed up because I didnt really know a lot about the company. I even made friends with the whole of the people that worked there and the manager, I am so upset I didn't get the job though. I feel like I will never ever get a job again!
I like the video about the what's your weaknesses because, I know I do have them, buy nervous to say anything about it. Now I know why they ask?? Also on why you want to work here, is also a good video, I usually come up with a good answer. I'm going to keep watching these working videos. Thanks...
I've used many of your videos in my classes teaching teenagers how to get their first job. I would love to see a video about what teenagers should wear to an interview for a part time summer job. Thanks for all the great videos :)
Thank you for posting these suggestions. Unfortunately, when I do hear from employers they are telling me that they've chosen someone else. Getting real discouraged. I will admit I've moved around quite a bit due to trying to find a job (4 different states) If this is hurting me, how can I fix it when no one will ask me in to an interview to explain? The applications all ask for previous addressess, so I have to tell them or they would see on background check right?
im having a hard time passing interviews to get a job , what should i wear and what should i say to become a better candidate for any job ?
why do wanna work here? is a stupid question umm because you're hiring lol i need money to eat my kid needs things if you don't work you cant eat or do anything else and You're suppose to work and i hate jobs they claim you need 2 or 3 years experience even fast food smh then when you apply and apply they wont hire you even if its your first job and you have tried more than enough times smh its frustrating
I really appreciate the information I think it's a great aspect I didn't think of . Thanks so much!!!!
could you please do a video on the question: "Do you prefer to work alone or with others? Give examples of times you've done both."
thanks!

I am currently searching for work in the customer service call center field. I have been ask the STAR questions. Tell me about a time when. Can you help me in that area. The questions are difficult only when I feel like I'm looking away or rush through.
Thank you for your answer. Have checked and learned to streamline my resume a little, so that is fine. But, with applying online...how do you follow up? Can you give us a proper way to do that? A lot of these opportunities do not give a phone number, so I should send another email? Thanks for all you guys do!
Very interesting! Thank you for the advise. Hopefully this will help me with a job interview that I have today! Without this vids I would have done very poorly!

I am 16 and I am interviewing for Harris teeter next week and I was just wondering what I should wear. I feel like I shouldn't wear a full on office look but I don't know what exactly can you help?
Thanks you are a life saver :) will trouble you with some more questions later! tc
That free sandwich thing is a real motivation 😭
I like to flip it. Why should I work for you? Excellent people are hard to find! When you know your value and have what it takes, it should be beneficial to all.
This vid helped a lot!!! but What can I say for Bob's clothing store?
Hi,
I have an Interview on 1507/2013 for higher position (in Office of Student Affairs) in the same institute where I am working now. Can u give me some interview tips and some questions could be asked by the interviewer.
I'm 17 years old and going for 2 job interviews(working at either a pharmacy or keyfood). Do you recommend me to wear business professional or casual(properly)? It's not like im going to work for a company or anyting.
Oh, I will surely "practice, practice, practice!!" lol!
I really love these videos... great advice!!
I got the job 😎 thanks for the tips really helped me stand out
hi i just apply to jobs on snagajob website when is my interview i got email today saying that i should be patient while they rewiew my applications that i apply today on snagajob website when do i have interview
Thank you for the Happy Birthday wish. I got a lot out of this U Tube video.
I hope I'm getting the job that I interviewed for today. However, the interview was very short {5 minutes} they didn't ask all of these questions only like 3 really ask any of these questions they only asked where I worked before {which I told them that I worked as a cc at king soopers for two years, and a sales associate/cashier 5 months} which is what they're looking for a CC and someone who sometimes works the register as well. they asked me if I was from where I'm from and I said yes. then they asked when I could work, {which I told them any time} and they asked me if I could weekends and holidays, which I told them I could, because I know weekends, and holidays are the busiest days for a grocery stores. Also Holidays as well, people come in even the week before the holiday to come and shop, so they always need help at that time. they did ask me if I had any questions for them and I asked if they still did the orientation they used too and they said no it was all on computer, and then they said ok and that they had other interviews, so they'd give me a call.
Theses videos are very help can you you guys do one with the question tell me a time when you had to provide customer service and how sis you handle it and what was the outcome
Hi Shaquanna Bennett! We will add that to our list of videos to make. Thanks!

omsairam 247 - That is so sweet of you and thank you so much for your kind words! I've shared them with the team :). We've got our fingers crossed for you and please let us know when you hear back! I'm sure you rocked it. ~ Kim
Aw Thank you so much! Sure i will :)
Soo got their email,did not get the job :( i really needed this job! Interview went well but i guess some other candidates had around 10 years of experience in retail. May be thats the reason. At least i got good experience.
I on the other hand did not have any experience but dressed professionaly etc now i am thinking to apply for fashion retail store. Should I wear pants and blazer or i can wear fashionable dress, jeans, top and blazer etc.
Hi omsairam 247 - I would stay away from jeans, but your other options sound great! Check out our Pinterest board for some ideas: www.pinterest.com/snagajob/womens-interview-outfits/. Good luck!

I actually got the question the why do you wanna work here in my interview
