      Thanks for the Video clip! Forgive me for butting in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you heard the talk about - Schallingora Information Investigation Scheme (should be on google have a look)? It is a good one off guide for learning what you need to say to get hired in a job interview without the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my GF after a lifetime of fighting got great success with it.

      Life is too short to be working for someone else's dream. Be a billionaire of your own. If you want to go big, stop thinking small. Billionaires and successful people are not people who never fail, but people who never quit. If you want to be a billionaire, then think like one, act like one, and live like one because there’s no other greater joy than having financial freedom and a life free of debts, All thanks to Mr carlos cause he made me who I am today through forex trade. He has helped me a lot with his trading strategies which helps me to earn $12,550 weekly. I really appreciate it and can't help but let others know about it. it is so suitable anyone can trade from anywhere and anythime, reach out to Mr carlos on IG @carlos_1uptrades. his indeed a God Sent

      I definitely feel you on that one. At least with an in person interview, you can observe/read the room to see if they're being positively or negatively receptive towards the answers you're giving them and adjust to suit. With self recording interview videos, it's hard to tell.

Apply for a couple of job you would like, but not the most important ones. "The more you do it, the more comfortable you become." After some practice....and a few actual interviews..you will feel MUCH more confident. NOW, go after your dream jobs! You WILL be great! ALWAYS, focus on the positive! If you believe you can, or believe you can't....either way, you will be correct! (Think about it!)

    These types of interviews allows companies and hiring managers to make judgements about you without the fear and worry of having to do that to you in person. Think about it. You are put in the hot seat and while you do your best to filter through your experiences to provide examples to answer their questions, the hiring manager may have already decided that they don't like you because of your appearance, your age, your gender, skin color etc... These type of platforms gives companies and hiring managers all the opportunity to make these judgements in a safe environment.

And in the same way, in a personal interview they can see all the demographic data...etc on you too...and in a normal personal setting they wouldnt react to those things at all. But most probably they would react to the content of your answers and you cant see that, which is a normal disadvantage and thats real.

I still kept a straight face and continued focusing on the question at hand and what I was saying, rather than pausing myself... I did not even give a smile to him even if I was dying of laughter inside. I guess that might have impressed him as I actually ended up getting the offer 😂

Maybe I’ll have better luck with the app

I feel like I did really badly, and it's a shame too because it was for a position at a company that I REALLY wanted to work at. I kind of wish I had just had a Zoom interview, or even an in-person interview instead! I prefer interviews that are more like conversations and don't make you feel so uncomfortable. :(

    The thing to do is refuse the video interview, go apply for a company with a human face. Do you really want to work for a company that treats people so impersonally anyway? Eventually employers will get the message, "you want good staff, start by treating them as humans".

    • @independentconsultant

      It's not about treating people impersonally in my opinion. It's about speeding the hiring process (which can take a looooong time done manually) and hire the right people more easily and reduce risk on both ends. What will you do when other companies catch up on the benefits of video interviews and when it become the norm?

    I hate these video interviews so much. No one is perfect when being recorded. So little mistakes being the deciding factor whether you get an income or not is the absolute worst. Often times you aren't going to get unlimited retries so if you happen to sneeze or stumble your words a little or even have to think for a moment you're screwed. And trying to please the bot before an actual person is a whole other issue. These video interviews can also lead to discrimination based on age, gender, race or even disabilities.
