    Hey Amri, I am from Bangladesh and I prepared for my first competency based interview for an international position by watching your videos. AND I GOT THE JOB. Your guidance is truly life-changing. Thank you so so much.

    Great video Amri. This has always been a tricky question for me, but you explained it well. We all need to remember: our interview is not a therapy session and the interviewer is not our therapist!😂

    This question is so challenging. What if your experience is old? I mean, I'm trying to re-enter the legal industry, but my last role is unrelated to this sector.

    • @amricelesteinterviewcoach
      @amricelesteinterviewcoach  4 місяці тому +1

      Is there any related volunteer work you can do - often these roles are a little easier to find and help you build up more recent relevant experience. You can also focus on your transferable skills - I cover this in more detail here: ua-cam.com/video/tktO28hH_Mg/v-deo.html

    Thanks for this. Just bumped into your channel. How would you handle the question "why do you want to work with us?'

    • @amricelesteinterviewcoach
      @amricelesteinterviewcoach  2 роки тому +1

      Your answer can be a blend of what you found in company research and what you've discovered during the interview process - for example, company accolades, plans or achievements.
      An example answer to 'What attracted you to our company' is included in my free Top 20 Interview Answers Guide, you can get that here: unique-experimenter-7636.ck.page/cc06b3a625
      Hope it helps!

    Hi Amri, thank you for your very helpful interview questions and answers..
    I am a fresh graduate who is going to have a physical interview for the position of an Assistant Psychological Services Executive in a government agency where they could ask me about certain aspects such as what they generally do. Do you have any advice for how I can stand out in the interview and not be nervous?

  • @SimamkeleMakwetu
    @SimamkeleMakwetu 2 роки тому +7

    Hey Amri, I find your videos extremely useful and helpful.
    With this question though, I really try to stay away from what is already included in my CV because the interviewers have my CV. I always share things like my personality type and the chief attributes thereof that potentially match me to the job. Moreover, I just feel like I am not my work experience, so to answer that question using my professional experience is an injustice to who I truly am. And so that’s how I’ve always though and tackled the question. This method has helped me a lot and landed me much success.
    Thereafter, the interviewers ask questions about my CV and that is when I delve deep into my work and professional experience.

    • @amricelesteinterviewcoach
      @amricelesteinterviewcoach  Рік тому +1

      Although this may be a little different in the UK depending on where you're based but I recommend starting with the grade or qualification, then talk about where you studied and when - then ask if they would like more detail so they can advise how much information they're looking for.

      @@amricelesteinterviewcoach ooh ok. I had a job interview last week and these ppl tore me up with some questions I did not know. Here’s one. “How do you envision yourself as a Administrative assistant and how do you build rapport while collaborating with a diverse team?” Something like that, probably a more difficult question than that. I said, I’m not sure and I’ll have to get back with them on that question. Im sure I didn’t get the job lol smh.

    what about "What is your brand?" I had that one a couple of months ago and I was a deer in the headlights.

    • @amricelesteinterviewcoach
      @amricelesteinterviewcoach  5 місяців тому

      To answer this I recommend having a think about your values and what has pushed you to that particular role or industry, for example your innovation, creativity or integrity, you can then use that as a descriptor for your personal brand - for example: 'an innovator,' 'a creative', 'a corporate strategist', and then expand on why that is your personal brand.
