SUMMARY
--------------------
After reviewing this video, you'll be able to overcome those pesky communication issues that accompany every job interview as you tell stories that make you believable, likeable, and memorable.
This is video 2 of a 3 part series.
Every great story that makes you believable, likeable, and memorable has these five characteristics:
Keep It Short and Simple. Superfluous information hinders their ability to remember.
Capture and Keep Their Attention. They can't remember you if they're not listening.
Talk in Their Lingo. Speak in a language they understand.
Make Them Believe You. Use details to make yourself believable.
Get Them to Care. Highlight the benefit to the individual in addition to the company.
Keep It Short and Simple
Your goal is to highlight the most necessary information your interviewer seeks without including superfluous remarks.
Capture and Keep Their Attention
There are two main issues here. The first difficult obstacle is you cannot make the interviewer pay attention. You need to attract his or her attention. Once you get that attention, you need to keep it.
The easiest way to do this is by telling stories where you did something first (or it was, at least, your first) and when you did something wrong. (There's much more explanation in the video.)
Talk in Their Lingo
This is one of the most difficult things for people to do when they're communicating. Do you know why? Because as we evolve through life, we forget what it's like not to know what we know. Make sure you know what language the interviewer speaks or ask them if you're not sure.
Make Them Believe You
Telling stories that are believable is probably one of the easier obstacles you need to overcome. The reason is if you truly lived the event you're sharing, you have the specific details that will help them believe you lived it.
The easiest way to tell believable stories is to interject details and use statistics if appropriate.
Get Them to Care
While believability might be easy to attain, getting them to care might be more difficult. This is true for two reasons. First and foremost, you will not be her top priority at that moment. So how do you get them to care?
The easiest way to get the interviewer to care is to show her how hiring you benefits her (or something she cares about).
If you are interviewing with a superior, for example, you might indicate that if you were hired, your skills are strong enough to help relieve her of some of her daily duties so she can focus on more strategic areas.
When speaking with a peer, show how you could serve as another resource to share ideas and cross-train each other on your complementary skills.
To a subordinate, you could highlight the areas in which you can teach or mentor her and your desire to present her with challenging opportunities for growth. These are just a few examples to get you thinking about the possibilities.

3. Speaks their language.
4. Believable: logical, detailed.
5. Caring and care-worthy.
I always come back to your videos when I have an interview. Great info and insight! Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Man, I am just so grateful for all your care, energy and commitment to total strangers. You obviously do this out of a love for seeing people succeed. Thank you so so much.
You're not a stranger Jackson. You're just a friend I haven't met yet. :)
Hi Andrew, came across your channel about two weeks ago and the timing was perfect as I had an interview the following week. Thank you for the amazing tips, I have learnt so much and and I got the call today letting me know I got the job!
The likability factor definitely goes both ways. I was interviewed earlier this week, and the person who would be my direct supervisor was there, and I was so unimpressed by her low energy and lack of interest, even when I asked her questions. She seemed rather burned out. I had a hard time picturing myself working with her, frankly. So, I am going for another interview, same type of job, different location, with a good vibe. Thanks for the info!
You're welcome!
Oh, one of the best videos. I've followed the resume tips and I'm very proud of my curriculum now. I would love if you could have a look on it. Now I'm watching your interview tips. Those were so good.
Andrew so much thanks for your help, as a token of apreciation I bought your book! I will definitely also tell my friends to buy it!
Three days ago I had my first serious job interview ever, after watching a lot of your videos. I came in for the position of safety manager via a secondment agency, and I walked out with an offer to work at that agency as a sales consultant. Just a few minutes ago I had my third talk with them and tomorrow I will sign the contract!
Although I didn't get more than the salary they initially offered I'm still really happy. Now I can experience the interview from the other side of the table :)
Ok.....I have literally sat and spent 11 hours watching your video teachings. I've never done that. Wow!
@@andylacivita they are helping me learn to understand more about the job industry, their values, their goals, and how it aligns with what's important to me. I've learned to have goals again and better myself so that I can continue to bring value to the company I'm currently with and share what values I am going bring to future companies I may end up working with. I appreciate your time you've put into these easy to understand videos. It's intuitive and you keep it real.
Thank you👍 great and valuable tips
How to tell your story: 4:27
Another morning of waking the dogs with Andy and my cup of tea. Love listening to your guidance while I wake up to get me started contemplating how to be better at advancing/managing my current and future career. Appreciate you as always buddy!
Yeah baby!
True. The people who interview you lack of knowledge about the jobs. So they just asking some formal question. I got an interview 1 week ago about selling and the interviewer lack of knowledge about selling and Selling attitude. Thank you Andrew, i will study those non relative question and telling my stories to get the job.
Wish i had seen this before my interviews with big companies, thank you very much
You’re welcome!!
Andrew, thank you for your time. It's been very helpfull, I'm in a job search and it's a hectic time. Your ideas are good and you explain it very well. Thanks
Roberto, soooo glad it helped you!
This really helped me to see a glimpse or have a clue on what it is to be in an interview as I am preparing for applying a job.
So glad to hear it Jose! Good luck!
These videos have been great getting me ready for an interview this coming Friday. Appreciate it!
You’re welcome!!
Andy, you are AWESOME!! I’m learning so much from these videos. I have a Skype interview tomorrow and I think just by watching your work, I stand a 100% great chance of doing well. Thanks for the confidence!!!
Chris Page Chris, so nice of you to say. Before your skype interview make sure to watch my videos on VIDEO interviewing Tips. I have a video with 20 suggestions!
I'm loving this series. It's precise and informative. Thanks again
Daily Transformation Through God's Word so glad you like it!

Glad you liked it Hussein!
Thank you Andrew for the video and advice.
Terrence Taylor you’re welcome!
Thank you, I will definitely recommend my friends about you
Thank you!
You're my Hero Andrew Lacivita.
I used your cover letter tips n I got called for an interview.. I didn't get the job but I won't miss the next after this video
Love to hear this Diana!!!
Great tips Andrew - I am gobbling up your videos like crazy - they are gold!
I agree
Thanks so much for this. Sorry I'm just getting to it, but I'm glad they are (or have helped)!!!
MoneyAhoy same here
@@andylacivita p
Same. I’m using the 2x play speed
During my phone interview today I was asked about compensation. Thanks to Andrew I didn't mention a specific dollar amount. It felt like the conversation was going positively. I sent a thank you email to the recruiter. I'm hoping to receive a follow up interview with an area manager.
Good luck on this Bryan!
Thanks for your helpful tips. Your tips has allowed me to understand biases and preconceived notion employees have on the interviewer.very effective tools for anyone Looking for job that may not be high level positions. Job searching has been very challenging to say the least. It has been brutal .
Maria, so glad I could help! Make sure to stop by later today, tomorrow, and Friday. I'm live for three days in a row on my UA-cam channel and you can get some nice lessons and ask me anything!
I enjoy and value all your vedios .. each time I need some coaching on job hunting ..I find it easier when I visit your vedios..Thanks a tonne
So glad to hear this and you’re welcome!
Wow, these videos are so comforting. Never enjoyed before watching interview tips 🤣🌸Thank you bunch.
Glad you like them!
you speak really in such an interesting way, I would watch your videos even if I didn't need the interview prep :)
Fidan Fassbender omigawd!!! Thank you for the overly generous compliment. So glad you enjoyed this and I hope you stop by my live office hours on Thursday’s!!
4:37 you are right! I always believe you try to get the interviewer to like you but your "rival" at "W.I.D" said something stupid - what she said was"...they don't selected because they like you". She's wrong, SOOOOOO WRONG!.
Some interviewer would be thinking "..can l and others, in this department, work with this person for over 40 hours a week?".
They always ask themselves that!!
@@andylacivita pardon me should be 40 hours a week.
Too good thank you so much Andrew
You're welcome Rabih!
Beside all the great suggestions, want to add that the snowscape outside is really warm and relieved
Thanks. I now live in a different place and get even more snow! Lol
This is really good advice kudos
Thanks Michael! Appreciate the nice word!!!
Great tactics and information...
Glad you liked it!!!
I always equate job interviews to a first date. First impression is everything. Let that person know who you are. Tell a great story!
Yeah baby. 100%
your videos are very helpful to me.very!
Glad you like them!!!
yoru're amazing, thank you!
That is SOOO nice of you to say. Thank you!
Amazing, thanks
You're welcome and thank YOU for the kind words!
You are great !
Nancy, thank you and YOU are great for saying so. I genuinely appreciate hearing from people and always want to know when my material is helping them. The feedback means so much to me and keeps me going!
Great advice! 👍
Thanks much Greg!!!
Thanks Andy..... were you skiing before this video? haha, you look great! Thx you as always:)
Nancy Roche lol
Your videos are super helpful, so thank you! I was wondering if you could make one about red flags for interviewees during a job interview, things to watch out for that may mean that the organization might not be a great place to work so that we can make good decisions. I had an interview recently where the interviewers were not engaging, did not give me an opportunity to ask questions, were not organized, etc. It completely threw me off and really made me wonder if I should even an accept a job offer if I were to receive it.
wut THAT wut is an AWESOME idea. I’ve actually added it to my content calendar and will also a live office hours on it!!
Hi Andy. I just bought the book and am busy reading the eBook right now. Thank God I found you. You are a standout in a sea of mediocrity. There is so much dross online....
Appreciate that buddy! 👊👊👊
Thank you sir! Salute!🙏🏼
You’re welcome!!
Andy, nice job! Thank you so much.
Hi Andy, This is just great! Thanks again for sharing! I really appreciated tip #5 (i.e. getting the interviewer(s) to care by highlighting how we would directly benefit THEM). The more videos I watch, the more confident I feel about the whole process! I will certainly get the full resume package. Ps: Are those 'Food & Wine' magazines sitting in the background? Giving us subtle hints as of what to send you once we land the job? :D
Hi Noelle! LOL. You are funny. Love it. Those are actually Food and Wine Books! I use to be a big subscriber (I love to cook). I'd read the entire magazine each month and at the end of the year, Food and Wine would send you a beautiful book with all the recipes from all the issues!! I have a dozen or so of them, but they're now in my kitchen in my new home. This video was shot before I moved last year!
Oh, also, don't enroll in any of the programs until we speak. I want to walk you through something else!
Ok sounds great!
Thanks for all your tips. They are helping me with negotiations. I currently have 2 companies one I work offering me a position raise. My current pay is below market value. I live in Colorado and cost of living is crazy. Im in good position to close the deal. Thanks again for the advice it really helps.
Hey Rue, Check out my video on how to get a pay increase.
@@andylacivita Ive been watching your videos non stop. Got past the 1st interview now have a 2nd scheduled.
Hi Andrew. I love your videos and I wanted to know since I have an interview tomorrow and have been prepping if these techniques can still apply for an entry level customer service position? I really want this position with this company and am working hard to nail the interview. Thanks!
A big YES Amber!
Would you please make a video about prejudice during the in-person job interview? I know that a lot of interviewers discriminate against a lot of things but will never DARE to admit it.
I have some questions for you, Andrew LaCivita. And if you would answer it would be muchly appreciated. How do you avoid going on tangents in a job interview? And how do you go about transitioning from one question to the next when you aren't the one asking the questions? Or how do you go about moving the interview along faster when it seems to drag on and on never ending without sending the interviewer bad signals/ being rude? Aka how do you send the signal that you're done answering a question in order to move to the next? And how do you go about giving the interviewer the impression that you can handle the job in order to be more likely to get hired? Thank you for your time and consideration!
Andrew, any tips for those who are in the older interview group?
Great question Peri. Check out my video on age discrimination. It's on the channel!
Hi Andy, I am having trouble finding the free ebook you mentioned - Ace Your Interview, Mastering the 14 most effective job interview questions. Would you please advise? Thanks! And you are awesome!
Head to milewalk academy website and we give that as a gift when you watch the 3 keys to ace any join interview webinar.
Hi Andy, Upon review, a lot of information to capture. A candidate's question sheet taken to the interview will be extremely important and these tips outlined on the same sheet will certainly help. I had a panel interview yesterday with another followup interview within the next day or two. Would an email Thank sent today work until I have more information about the job? And then follow up with another email and then a written thank you? bye, Sandra
Sandra, I would always try to get the thanks yous out within 24 hours no matter what, but if that window has passed, I'd send them as soon as possible!
I’d rather hold out for a in person interview with another company than participate in in a one way video interview. My own belief on it is that I am the only one taking time out for this. Yes, they will review it later, but that is when they are ready. It also tells me that they are not as interested in the process as I am.
Hi Andrew, I saw your videos.. really liked them.. I recently got a my EAD and hence am allowed to work in US.. I am from India and have done MBA from one of the top B schools here.. have 5+ years of experience and looking for a job in US.. can you please help me with my profile and interviews.

Great video sir.
I loved it.
But Hw to answer about "gap in the career?"in the interview N some tips
Hw to escape or ' less highlight that issue' , in the scanning of cv by hr .
Hey Andy! How can I handle it when an intervewer doesn't ask one question but piles many in one complex sentence, and their questions concern many different topics?
I've met this phenomenon at a video interview, at a call center. It left me in tension and confusion, especially as there was a fixed duration.
Greetings from Budapest (Hungary)!
You can always ask them to repeat the question. In addition, after you answer a complex question, you can occasionally ask if that answered their question.
Hi Andy, thanks for sharing. I have a question regarding the 3rd point. Since an interview is where you and the interviewer meet for the 1st time and don't know what is their preferred level of granularity. Would it be OK to just give a high level overview first and ask them which aspect interests them most and then provide more targeted level of detail?
or better yet, volunteer the aspect that I think is most interesting so as not to turn control to interviewer? :)
That’s okay too.
