I kept getting interviews but no offers. I watched a ton of your videos yesterday. I had an interview today and 20 minutes after the interview, I was offered the job! Thank you!
@@dhenderson1810 they really did get back to me that quickly. I have never had that happen before. It was a virtual interview and by the time, I had shut down my computer and did a few things, they called. The job is going well. I learned after working here for awhile, they hire based a lot on personality. It’s a tight knit group and they want people that will be a good fit.
My employer is conducting lays off, and I'm scheduled to be laid off this November. I'm now looking for jobs so I'm watching your videos to better prepare for interviews I have coming up soon. You are providing really good information that I plan to use, so fingers crossed, I land something soon.
They want to hear you say ", Yes my Lord and Saviour. I am not worthy". "You are so wise and successful. I hope a lowly servant like myself can be like you one day. You are my inspiration.." Will that do? (It must work somewhat with all the ass kissers who get jobs).
Thank you for this! I just finished a interview I really REALLY want and need, and I was scared that all my likes and ums killed the interview… I get REALLY nervous in interviews and my Brain can’t think as fast as I can talk. I do my best to stop and take a breath but I put a LOT of pressure on myself and I get back to being nervous . So I took WAY too many posses. But this helped reassure me that I did everything I could and I did everything right! All these points I did at some point. (For the past week I studied, memorized and practiced interviewed with my family, I would have gone longer but I only had a week from when I had the interview offer) I got really worried because I left thinking that they went all too interested. But after watching a few of these videos I think I’m just being too harsh on myself. Because they did do things that u said was a good sign in other videos and I genuinely do want this job. I relly feel passionate about it! It would open so many doors for me just in my life… I’d be financially stable for the first time ever and it would feel so amazing to just buy food again! I’m just so excited for this job and tiered of being disappointed… I’ve had opportunities like this before where I do just as much if not more and the interview went even better. But still got ghosted or told no. I just hope I get it this time!
I am putting everything in this video and your "what not to say" videos into a cheat sheet I will be taking to every interview (on the rare occasions I get one)
Ben, "team player" is how I always describe myself. That ties into my sports fandom. When it comes to being willing and able to mentor newer people, that's largely like when a veteran quarterback in the NFL, serves as a mentor and tutor to a young, promising, up-and-coming quarterback. I was born in 1973, so I'm old, but back in the day when the NBA had true legitimate centers, veteran centers who could mentor rookie and young centers, was very valuable.
Hi Ben, why do recruiters ghost. I followed up a bunch of times, and they said they are having delays in their end and that they would like me to do a second interview. It’s been 3 plus weeks and I followed up again, but no response… idk what this means!
Hi Simran! I am sorry about that. I did make this video on it though - Why Companies Ghost Candidates After the Job Interview - Ghosted After an Interview, Here is Why! ua-cam.com/video/DPmz4cWaNg4/v-deo.html
You have helped me more than you know! You are by far the best ! Thank you for doing these amazing videos. I’m about to have an interview and I’m hopeful to land the position!❤
Thanks so much for this. I have been unemployed for almost a year... I'm in rural Texas, so opportunities are low... I am currently applying for jobs outside of the state and need any information to help.
Hi Ben - have just come across your videos and found them REALLY helpful! But have you done any on writing CV's and Cover letters? What advice would you give [from a recruiter's perspective]. Thanks!
Great video. I went on a job interview and the hiring attorney said that he was impressed with the interview. Even so, someone else might beat me out. At least I did my best and had a great interview. They are still interviewing, so we shall see.
Believe it or not, there can be a time in the modern day workplace when the "teamwork" concept works against you: try working for some state governments!
should I share my alignment with company values only when they mention why you choose our company ? or, can I address it when they ask me to tell about myself ?
It shouldn't be a competition. To be their "team player"... That is sick. The fake I love doing mundane things = a job.I prepared for this... What a crock of 💩
When I hired people I could see right through the fake manipulatiors.If it's too good to be true you know it is. Also you say they want to hear.. Alot. Manipulators know that & get the job over people that don't lie & over do it in the interview & those are the actual good employees. They don't want to be top performers... Why??? So they can get burned out. You're creating toxic burned out employees.. You're an idiot ...
Had an interview yesterday with a hiring manager and a service manager, the employer was telling me about the on boarding process, letting me know the route that I would be given and the training I would be getting, if I’m ok with the onboarding taking awhile, is she hinting that I got the job? I ask because at the the end of the interview, she did let me know that she is going to run it through her bosses, and that she will get back to me within a week.
I had a thought, while listening to this, about the idea of mentioning that "I'm a top performer..." and I wanted to run by you, and see what you think. And I'm going to be very blunt as I share this, and perhaps you can help me make it more aesthetically pleasing to the recruiter. I worked the "Back Half Night" shift as a Mechatronics Technician for a number of years. (Back Half Nights means that I worked (4) 10 hour shifts, Wed-Sat nights from 9pm to 7:30am.) Of the (4) shifts at Amazon, my shift, while shorter in number of crew members (of only 4 techs while every other shift was running >6 people), was still consistently hitting the highest marks of factory efficiency, quick equipment repairs, less downtime, and 50% higher output volume than any other shift - WHICH HAS BEEN key to our building fulfilling 58% more orders than the average Amazon Fulfillment Center. -------- I don't know if that made sense. I'd be happy to clarify, wherever needed. But is there a better way to phrase this? I would LIKE to include something about avoiding the political drama of the day shifts where all the building managers and support is available, and just getting to work when all of them are away - but that may come across in bad form. I get that.

They never get back to you that quickly.
What about "all the other people we have to interview".

They want to hear you say
", Yes my Lord and Saviour. I am not worthy".
"You are so wise and successful. I hope a lowly servant like myself can be like you one day. You are my inspiration.."
Will that do?
(It must work somewhat with all the ass kissers who get jobs).
Turn off that background music. It's so distracting from what you have to say. Great video otherwise. Thank you!
This advice is gold yet it is free on UA-cam! Thank you, Ben!
You are welcome!!!

The music is annoying
How was the video besides that?
You also talk too fast which results in an unpleasantly hurried delivery. Beyond this, your material sounds legit.
@@ClaudioFernandez-og6fn 😂😂😂
should I share my alignment with company values only when they mention why you choose our company ?

Oh so they want you to to your job their job &'everyone else's job = team player. Not ok.
It shouldn't be a competition. To be their "team player"... That is sick. The fake I love doing mundane things = a job.I prepared for this... What a crock of 💩

If you follow me on instagram (same name) I’ll respond with a voice memo. This is a lot to type lol
@@BenTalksTalent - Will do
Dude you said that in your recruiting job you worked 12 years then another video you said 11 now this dude one it’s 13 years just a bit confused 🫤
