I have an interview tomorrow in the morning. I’ve never had a job before so I’m very nervous about everything Update: I got the jobbb Another update: it’s been almost a year and I loveee my job and all my coworkers! New update lol it’s about to be 2 years and I hate it. I’m ready to leave 😐 Guys 3 year updateeee I left it was terrible there and the managers suck 🥰
If you’re reading this, you’re going to get the job. This video is extremely helpful! I definitely incorporated some of the techniques for my interview and I got the job. Thank you so much for this helpful information ✨
@@GloGoddesss I got the job but it was not the right area for me so i kindly had to decline. but looking for jobs a little closer to me. thank you though :)
Guys always remember every interviewer wants to hire you, that's why you're there. So just dont give them any reason to change their mind. Good luck everybody you're gonna do great.
Not necessarily. Usually employers have an ideal candidate in mind, when they shortlist you with 2 or 3 others. But they have to interview everyone for formality.
@@Vic292 regardless you are there because they saw something in you they liked. They may have 2 or 3 that aren't you that they like better but you still have a chance to change their minds.
i’ve got a phone interview today! wish me luck ☺️ Edit: I actually got the job omg 😭👏🏾 Edit 2: I quit this job cause the managers sucked lol KNOW YOUR WORTH YALL! but also I hope everyone gets the job they're applying for
I'm an introvert, and I got an interview tomorrow hope everything works out gosh I need this job. Update: it went really well to all my shy people you got this just be urself. And always remember ur self value. They need u.
@@kristinchanel4770 You're welcome! Best of luck with your interview tomorrow! You've got this-stay confident and show them your best self. I'll be rooting for you! 🌟🍀
I was doing many interviews for months and nothing was really happening. I knew there was something wrong. I started watching your videos, boosting my confidence and getting ready for interviews. Today I just got a job offer for the position that I wanted!!! No words to describe the feeling.. I just would like to say thank you!
Im sick of having to bullshit and make myself seem fancy. When they ask "why do you want this job?" I just want to reply "because i need a job and have a passion for money"
I had an interview in 2019 and I passed after watching this. The interviewer only asked one question which is "tell me about yourself. " I guess she was satisfied with my answer. Thanks for this! I am watching this again because I am going to an interview later. I always recommend your channel to everyone who are seeking tips about job interviews. Love from Philippines!
@@arolemaprarath3248 try and do some research and get to know the company better. Look into what they are looking for because most organizations tell us what they want. If you're anxious, try to do things that usually calm you down. It might be silly but make sure to get proper rest and a good meal prior that way your body is physically prepared for the interview. Depending on the job, if possible, I recommend taking an extra pair of clothes. Just in case anything happens on your longer commute there. It's always a plus to look presentable. You can do it! I hope things go well with your interview :)
@@arolemaprarath3248 no problem :) I would check out the website "Glassdoor" and search the job there. Usually there are reviews left by current and previous employees. Former employees love to talk about the nitty gritty within their company so I would look there for anything that might be a red flag for you. It's also just good to know for yourself, but remember it can be just an annoyed employee. However, if it's a scam, someone most likely has said it on there. Hope that helps!
So you're basically briefly explaining what's on your resume, so they can understand how confident you speak, your posture and how you hold yourself and how much you know about their company. I've got an interview next week, this video helps. Thank you!

so like if i talk about the artistic jobs ive had, if i start off by saying something like 'ive grown to be a passionate artist and my artistic practices influenced me into working at * job * as a * position * etc etc" make it sound more human?
I've used this a few times and it works really well! My only advice is to shorten your statement if possible and build achievement stories into the next few answers. Even going through the snapshot of your work history by yourself before the interview will give you a BUNCH of anecdotes to loads of questions. The first time I tried it it was very lengthy and didn't really work. Now I start by saying what I am doing currently, the job or education I did before this, a summary of my other industries and qualifications and THEN I a future statement about where I want to bring my experience/skills. "I am 26 years old, currently a team coordinator at ___. Before this I was studying __ and volunteering at ___. I have experience leading and motivating teams and would love to work more in the community sector!" I don't know why but I always start with my age 😅 After this they usually ask why you want the position. This is where I suggest spoon feeding them with the "I know you are looking for someone with xyz..." statement 😊
I've done a phone interviews 3 days ago and i got the job as project engineer. The interviewer tell me that they choose me because of my accomplishments which is because I watched this video a night before the real iv. So I really want to thank you for the girl in this video cause u have boost my confidence and also give me various idea for the iv!! ❤️❤️❤️
What I "love" about most of the career coaches out there is that every time they give an example of people who have 10 years of experience in a certain role or industry, have won 20 rewards etc. What about people who dont have many years of experience, or have no experience, or havent won any rewards? If I have the profile described by most of the career coaches in their examples trust me I will not need a career coach to tell me how to answer interview questions... most of these videos are obviously made for managers or CEOs with thousands of years of experience and millions of awards.... What you do here is just to make normal people without rewards for their job feel even more nervous and scared of the interview as they are thinking:" Oh, no.... what do I do now? I obviously need to be an expert with 20 years of experience to answer even a simple interview question ..." I think it's very important to know your audience before making such a video and trust me your audience is not people that you describe in this video!
@@bilaltariq7819 what I am saying here is that she is telling people how they should talk about their rewards and many years of experience... without doing a research i can guarantee you that the biggest part of the people watching this video are probably newly graduates, or pretty young people who just hasn't had the time to win all the rewards she is talking about or the many years of experience so i am pretty sure these people can't relate to what she is saying. The only thing she can achieve here is to make them even more nervous for their interview because they cannot live up to the things she describes.... instead I think it could have been better if she could give examples for normal people who are in the beginning of their career path. But actually why am I explaining this to you...?!?! You obviously know better than anyone else.... just 1 question: what does a person like you (who has obviously "a lot to show/offer" ) do here watching this video? Why do you need someone to tell you how to answer this question 🤔
I have an interview later tonight. All your tips are very helpful, and my favorite would be the last part “why you are the only perfect for this position.” Thank you so much for all the tips, it boosts my confidence.
Thanks for this video. I watched it 15 min before my job interview. First question was.... you guessed it: "Tell me about yourself." I followed your instructions exactly. After my 12 minute monologue the hiring manager did not have any questions. They let me ask some of my own and then invited me to the next stage. 👍
*“Tell Me about Yourself”* _question gives you a great opportunity to spotlight the experience and skills that make you the ideal candidate for the job._
@@stevenmalolo938 thank you, I was so nervous! Pretty sure they could hear it in my voice. But I was given a in person interview. . Hope I get the job!
i had an interview a few days ago and today for the same company but two different locations, i think i went okay. will update you guys if i get it :) someone like this comment tho so i can come back!
"Tell me about yourself" "I'm 34 years old, still live with my parents, and owe $130,000 in student loans. Please, please, please hire me so I can make money."
Tip for everyone if you still feel nervous or anxiety. Your Outfit and the Energy you bring into the room says ALOT about yourself and even that is a great factor in hiring you because you are motivated and willing to learn and get a career going!
APEX Network Also, please give examples of those of us who didn't graduate college and who are in the middle of their career life and are a "Relauncher".
Both of my parents are managers and have helped guide me through interview questions. When I asked them about the question "tell me about yourself" they said to literally say a few things about yourself. My parents said they dont wanna hear about what the employee has "achieved" in the past (not in a bad way); but they wanna hear about YOU as a person. What do you like doing on your free time? What are your hobbies? What are your interests? Things like that
Hi Linda. Your videos are very helpful for me. 5 years ago I came across your videos and landed job in an multinational company. With your videos. I was then promoted twice in our department so the strategies you have shared in your vids are what helped me to succeed in my interviews I am very thankful for that ☺️
I have an interview in a few hours. Wish me luck. Update: I got the job. Thank you so much Linda. I’m happy to announce that you are invited to all the bbqs at the Death Star.
I think the most important thing you have to had in interview is a good positive confident energy. People can see if you’re nervous but if you’re confident with your self they will start believing what you’re saying. But there’s a dangerous thin line of confident and arrogant, you need to also be humble to show that you willing to learn in the new work environment. And I think its better to start telling the chronological work experience from your current job rather than your first job. Hell if you’re moving a lot the interview will be long and boring. Just keep short and lively to engage your interviewer attention Today just went to interview and got the job 😊
I have an interview in 2 days. This is my first time attending a job interview in Canada, feeling nervous and excited. Good Luck to all you guys out there who has job interviews scheduled !
2 months ago my friend share your video to me. At that time I have no job and I was desperately need a job to support my wife and my baby boy. I did watch your video and it was a fantastic and eyes opening experience! Thanks to your advice I manage to get the job today :) and I am so surprised that in turn the salary is very 'aggressive'! Somehow I managed to stand out among 49 other candidates who fought to get the position. Thanks Linda..your video has changed my life!
Hi Linda, my name is Roberto from Brazil but and I am living and working in Costa Rica. I am so happy for what you helped me to achieve. I followed you and watched your videos for hours and hours for 2 days, Guess what? I succeed in my interview to take the job of my dreams. I love you!
I've been listening to this video ever since my interview last 2018. I got the job since. I have been trying to apply for a higher role and still listening to this. I've failed multiple times but I am trying again. Wish me luck tomorrow!
Tips with timecodes: Tip # 1: Give a snapshot of your work history. - 1:35 Tip #2: Make your mini stories achievement-oriented. - 2:52 Tip #3. Tell the employer what you KNOW about this role. - 4:12 Tip #4. Finally, tell the employer WHY you’re the RIGHT fit for what they need. - 5:20
got an interview in 5 hours! wearing a mask because of corona so hopefully my employer can hear me since it’s quite thick, 😭 im really bad at being constructive with my sentences so I hope I piece everything okay in this interview. thank you for the tips!
I was feeling nervous and having anxiety attacks for my coming interview. However, after going through all these positive comments I can say I feel a lot better. I do hope I get the role I am applying though.
So interesting about the tip about weaving in personal information. For career changes who have changed careers a few times, this Tell me about yourself question is usually hard to follow in a timeline. A great tip is to focus on your key qualifications or core strengths and how the jobs you had have complemented each of your strengths.
I love the overall response .. I usually fail a bit when they say “ tell me about a time you dealt with a difficult coworker and how did you over come it?”
Im having my first ever interview tomorrow, and that is for an internship at an international organisation. Ive never been to an interview before and this thing is everything I could ask for at this stage of my life. I'm freaking out....😐😐😐 I got it. It took a little long for them to respond as its a huge organization, but I got it💃💃
You helped me with this question, and I felt a lot better when I watched the video a day before the interview and prepared my answers in advance, along with "what you want to be in 5 years". I also tried to understand every single question, why they asked it, and gave them a lot of examples and stories with each answer. I got the job !! and can't wait to start another chapter in my life, thanks a lot Linda
I don’t know if I got the job yet but honestly after watching this and a couple Other videos I feel like this was my best interview yet. It felt very natural and the conversation seemed to flow very naturally! Thank you so much!! Even if I don’t get the job, this helped me in the interview process.
Meeee. I’m 14 and looking for my first job lol. My dad said if I don’t get a job he won’t even consider getting me a car when I turn 16. I’ve got my first interview at a Taco Bell tomorrow
I appreciate your perspective - articulating who we are can be difficult! I actually define who I am in the last video on my channel - I encourage everyone to do something similar: Define WHO YOU ARE, and then stay committed to stay true to yourself no matter what.
Then you just let the person know, what you went to school for. You have a lot to give, you are moldeable..since you haven't worked for any company. You can find a common ground between you and the interviewer lol I usually always mentioned and mention I used to live in Spain, majority of people in good standing have travelled, that's always my common ground. Now that sounds personal, but not really depending on what you are applying for. Regularly people who have travelled are more conscious of others, you can describe yourself as a person who gets along with others even while being culturally different and that you have knowledge of how to speak with others with respect. Maybe not so helpful either but ..oh well.
I have a job interview 2 hours from now along with my 2 friends who are also tryna get in. Wish us luck bois edit: I GOT IN!! but sadly my friends didn't :
"How do you stay organized? Are you good at multitasking? No, I do one thing at a time and do it well and shift quickly to one task at a time...because multitasking is proven to be total B.S., but you people still won't learn and keep expecting it from workers and asking your candidates about it in the interviews.
My concern is that if you've been in the work force for 15 years, have held several jobs due to being in school, then jobs being out of school that employers will yawn about every role you've ever taken even starting at fast food all the way until your current position...Not everyone has had a job where they were in it for 5 years.
K P - in that case, I would personally just share a handful of MAJOR jobs that contributed to your career accomplishments that pertains to the job opportunity.
Yeah, I feel like better advice would be to talk about your major work experiences -- jobs you held for the longest and experiences most related to the position you're applying for. If you've been working 20 years, no potential employer is going to want to hear about how your first job was as a bag boy at the supermarket when you were 16.
Hey, just letting you know that I really appreciate your help. I've incorporated some of your tips and got 6 interviews. Offered a job on the same day in my first interview at a Big4, so I let the other interviews go. Grateful, thanks!
Interviewer: Tell me about yourself. Me: When I was 6 years old, I fell off my bike and broke my tooth. My Mom told me the tooth fairy would pay only half of the normal amount of $2 since there was only half a tooth. I left the tooth fairy a note stating that I would like to receive $3 since a broken tooth is a special rarity. It should be prized. I kindly thanked her for help. I offered her the remaining tooth for FREE but it would be delivered at no less than 6 months from this date. When awoke, I found $3 under why pillow. This is an example of my marketing and negotiation skills. It also demonstrates how I am capable of overcoming challenges.
I tell someone i have temper on get rif of the perverted , and I'm proud of myself by my first experience , but this is unsuitable, lol 😂 i ruined the interview
thank you so much for the tips on how to answer this difficult question :)) i ended up getting the job after setting a good first impression with my employer after they ask me this particular question !! but also the key is to be calm and collected and treat the interview and a casual conversation, as then you will be more confident leading to a better outcome. I wish everyone the best for their upcoming interview 🥰
I have watched this video before, I said to myself that I would come back and watch this video again for my interview, very soon . Here I’m watching it for my interview tomorrow. Please wish me luck 😊😊
I have a second interview next week with two companies. I am not nervous but a bit anxious. I did learn today from you about what to say when the interviewer is asking the question " tell me about yourself" I did make the mistake a few times so I will certainly not do this again unless they ask about hobbies etc. Thank you
humans. we take the most basic thing or process and make it soooo complex... i totally gett why some guys just disappear up to alaska or canada with a case of beer to a log cabin in the middle of nowhere, never to be seen again... great video though...
Thank you for covering this question. This is one of the many other important interview questions you covered in your other videos that I watched and prepared for before my job interview last month. I nailed the interview and I am now waiting for my employment contract to be signed. Gob bless!
Giving a snapshot of your work history is a good idea, but talking through each role is only really valuable if you're relatively new to the workforce. If you've held many positions (4+), you're probably going to lose the interviewer's interest by going through every one. 💡 Sticking to the highlights keeps it interesting and also manageable to remember. ⏳
Interview on Thursday 😓 I’ve been getting rejected at every job for the past few months , started watching your videos I feel a little more confident , thank you ! 💞
i keep getting rejected from every job interview as well, it’s so discouraging 😞 for some reason i mess up the interview and become anxious for no reason

I have a panel interview tomorrow that’s supposed to be one hour! I’ve done panels before so I’m not very nervous but I really want the position!!!! Positive vibes all around!
Thank you for your tips. We had a job interview for school recently, 30 mins before my time schedule I watched it for a guide, I'm happy that my teacher complimented me so much and he was happy with my answer.

Phone to phone interview tomorrow morning. Trying to join The Canadian Armed Forces. Tonight I’m feeling really confident about it, and hopefully I feel the same way tomorrow morning. Wish me luck guys!
@@HK-jo3ek not exactly what I expected. It was a success for sure, but no question were asked about me, my background, or my personal life. All the questions focused on the job. Of course, I did indeed answer all of them with my best of honesty, but since it was only 20 minutes long I feel like there was something missing. Perhaps I will find more answers after my medical exam this May.

I used this technique yesterday at a job interview and I got hired yayyy thank you so much for making this video.
congratulation, honestly, this made me a convenience, I'm preparing with my self for an interview.

Can u share me, what question from hrd to u?
What I "love" about most of the career coaches out there is that every time they give an example of people who have 10 years of experience in a certain role or industry, have won 20 rewards etc. What about people who dont have many years of experience, or have no experience, or havent won any rewards? If I have the profile described by most of the career coaches in their examples trust me I will not need a career coach to tell me how to answer interview questions... most of these videos are obviously made for managers or CEOs with thousands of years of experience and millions of awards.... What you do here is just to make normal people without rewards for their job feel even more nervous and scared of the interview as they are thinking:" Oh, no.... what do I do now? I obviously need to be an expert with 20 years of experience to answer even a simple interview question ..." I think it's very important to know your audience before making such a video and trust me your audience is not people that you describe in this video!
Agreed
You are absolutely right!
Exactly those ppl are t on here searching about themselves 😂😂😂😂
this is actually so damn true
@@bilaltariq7819 what I am saying here is that she is telling people how they should talk about their rewards and many years of experience... without doing a research i can guarantee you that the biggest part of the people watching this video are probably newly graduates, or pretty young people who just hasn't had the time to win all the rewards she is talking about or the many years of experience so i am pretty sure these people can't relate to what she is saying. The only thing she can achieve here is to make them even more nervous for their interview because they cannot live up to the things she describes.... instead I think it could have been better if she could give examples for normal people who are in the beginning of their career path. But actually why am I explaining this to you...?!?! You obviously know better than anyone else.... just 1 question: what does a person like you (who has obviously "a lot to show/offer" ) do here watching this video? Why do you need someone to tell you how to answer this question 🤔
I have an interview later tonight. All your tips are very helpful, and my favorite would be the last part “why you are the only perfect for this position.” Thank you so much for all the tips, it boosts my confidence.
Can I just say on behalf of all of anxious people, THANK U SO MUCH
💯💯💯
Thanks for this video. I watched it 15 min before my job interview. First question was.... you guessed it: "Tell me about yourself." I followed your instructions exactly. After my 12 minute monologue the hiring manager did not have any questions. They let me ask some of my own and then invited me to the next stage. 👍
*“Tell Me about Yourself”* _question gives you a great opportunity to spotlight the experience and skills that make you the ideal candidate for the job._
Exactly!!
Two years ago i was here for interview tips and i was hired. Today I am here again as i will be attending an interview in the next two days 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Interviewer: Tell me about yourself
*Social Anxiety has entered the chat......*

Right, currently watching videos before my phone interview.. I'm freaking out!
Stephanie H best of luckkkk to ya!
@@stevenmalolo938 thank you, I was so nervous!
Pretty sure they could hear it in my voice.
But I was given a in person interview. . Hope I get the job!
Yes lol 😆
i had an interview a few days ago and today for the same company but two different locations, i think i went okay. will update you guys if i get it :) someone like this comment tho so i can come back!
Hope you got the job!
hopefully u got the jobs!!!

sorry for the late reply, yes i got it 🥳
"Tell me about yourself"
"I'm 34 years old, still live with my parents, and owe $130,000 in student loans. Please, please, please hire me so I can make money."

Hired
Make money with your status???
That student debt realness!
I will used this
Tip for everyone if you still feel nervous or anxiety. Your Outfit and the Energy you bring into the room says ALOT about yourself and even that is a great factor in hiring you because you are motivated and willing to learn and get a career going!
Less than 12 hours ahead of my job interview, i am soooo stressed. Wish me luck.
Luqian Long did you get it ?
Luqian Long what kind of job did you get interview?

Most of the examples you use are for people with a lot of experience. What about people who are looking for their first job after college?

Both of my parents are managers and have helped guide me through interview questions. When I asked them about the question "tell me about yourself" they said to literally say a few things about yourself. My parents said they dont wanna hear about what the employee has "achieved" in the past (not in a bad way); but they wanna hear about YOU as a person. What do you like doing on your free time? What are your hobbies? What are your interests? Things like that
Hi Linda.
Your videos are very helpful for me. 5 years ago I came across your videos and landed job in an multinational company. With your videos. I was then promoted twice in our department so the strategies you have shared in your vids are what helped me to succeed in my interviews I am very thankful for that ☺️
I have an interview in a few hours. Wish me luck.
Update: I got the job. Thank you so much Linda. I’m happy to announce that you are invited to all the bbqs at the Death Star.
Goodluck! May the force be with you.
I think the most important thing you have to had in interview is a good positive confident energy. People can see if you’re nervous but if you’re confident with your self they will start believing what you’re saying.
But there’s a dangerous thin line of confident and arrogant, you need to also be humble to show that you willing to learn in the new work environment.
And I think its better to start telling the chronological work experience from your current job rather than your first job. Hell if you’re moving a lot the interview will be long and boring. Just keep short and lively to engage your interviewer attention
Today just went to interview and got the job 😊
Your first statement needs to be your commercial or as it is also called your elevator speech.
yo right up there dude..nervousnrss is the common disease that eats us all...i think being confident can make u win a job
Ok, but what if you've never worked before?
I was so nervous at my interview & the hiring manager noticed it & he still gave me the job
I was watching this video a day before my job interview, well, I got a call the day after my interview and I got the job at Ford assembly company🙌
Wow you're so cool😱
Congrats
Congratulations 🎉
So nice to hear this! Congrats! ✨✨
I have an interview in 2 days. This is my first time attending a job interview in Canada, feeling nervous and excited. Good Luck to all you guys out there who has job interviews scheduled !
Interviewer: Why should we hire you?
Interviewee: *Because you're hiring*
Very well said, but nonsense😂😂😂
Lmao
Lol😂😂😂
😂😂😂 You are funny!
Exactly!
2 months ago my friend share your video to me. At that time I have no job and I was desperately need a job to support my wife and my baby boy. I did watch your video and it was a fantastic and eyes opening experience! Thanks to your advice I manage to get the job today :) and I am so surprised that in turn the salary is very 'aggressive'! Somehow I managed to stand out among 49 other candidates who fought to get the position. Thanks Linda..your video has changed my life!
Hi Linda, my name is Roberto from Brazil but and I am living and working in Costa Rica. I am so happy for what you helped me to achieve. I followed you and watched your videos for hours and hours for 2 days, Guess what? I succeed in my interview to take the job of my dreams. I love you!
I hope I will get the job too after my interview on this Monday
I've been listening to this video ever since my interview last 2018. I got the job since. I have been trying to apply for a higher role and still listening to this. I've failed multiple times but I am trying again. Wish me luck tomorrow!
Did you accomplished it?
Yeah it looks easy to answer but when you're right there in front of the interview you have a tendency to go blank😁😭
Hailene's KITCHEN yeah totally 😅
Exactly! :)))
I'm taking notes to memorize lol

how did it go? 🧐
How it ended?
u get it?
Seems like it wasn't a success 😞
Ahhh the mask can also be used as a safety curtain aswell haha
I was feeling nervous and having anxiety attacks for my coming interview. However, after going through all these positive comments I can say I feel a lot better. I do hope I get the role I am applying though.
So interesting about the tip about weaving in personal information. For career changes who have changed careers a few times, this Tell me about yourself question is usually hard to follow in a timeline. A great tip is to focus on your key qualifications or core strengths and how the jobs you had have complemented each of your strengths.
Who is here to get some hype for your next interview in 24 hour ✋😂
Interviewer: So tell us about yourself.
Me: I rather not; I kinda need this job.
Why is that me though?
@@maymestanton413 coz i, NEED IT!!!!!
Hahahahha
right
😂
I want to come here and say that i got my current job after watching this video and learning how to talk about myself.
I love the overall response .. I usually fail a bit when they say “ tell me about a time you dealt with a difficult coworker and how did you over come it?”
Im having my first ever interview tomorrow, and that is for an internship at an international organisation. Ive never been to an interview before and this thing is everything I could ask for at this stage of my life.
I'm freaking out....😐😐😐
I got it. It took a little long for them to respond as its a huge organization, but I got it💃💃
How was it?
@@amjaad2377 it went well
congratulations!!!!
You helped me with this question, and I felt a lot better when I watched the video a day before the interview and prepared my answers in advance, along with "what you want to be in 5 years".
I also tried to understand every single question, why they asked it, and gave them a lot of examples and stories with each answer.
I got the job !!
and can't wait to start another chapter in my life, thanks a lot Linda
I don’t know if I got the job yet but honestly after watching this and a couple Other videos I feel like this was my best interview yet. It felt very natural and the conversation seemed to flow very naturally! Thank you so much!! Even if I don’t get the job, this helped me in the interview process.
How is it going?
Loved it. My favorite tip was ending it with how your background and experience give you the tools to succeed in the position they are offering.
3 hours before the interview

this woman helped me land my first job and now i'm trying to find a new one and she's helping me again. Thank you!
I appreciate your perspective - articulating who we are can be difficult! I actually define who I am in the last video on my channel - I encourage everyone to do something similar: Define WHO YOU ARE, and then stay committed to stay true to yourself no matter what.
Not very useful for newbies. You should have considered fresh graduates as candidates for applying a job.
Agreed!
I have an interview tomorrow and I'm freaking out I'm a fresh outta college
@sabuj motivation Because not everyone has previous work experience.
Then you just let the person know, what you went to school for. You have a lot to give, you are moldeable..since you haven't worked for any company. You can find a common ground between you and the interviewer lol I usually always mentioned and mention I used to live in Spain, majority of people in good standing have travelled, that's always my common ground.
Now that sounds personal, but not really depending on what you are applying for. Regularly people who have travelled are more conscious of others, you can describe yourself as a person who gets along with others even while being culturally different and that you have knowledge of how to speak with others with respect.
Maybe not so helpful either but ..oh well.
Graduates should already have experience
I have a job interview 2 hours from now along with my 2 friends who are also tryna get in. Wish us luck bois
edit: I GOT IN!! but sadly my friends didn't :
Congratulations
It actually worked like magic .. I got my offer.. thanks Linda.. watched most of your videos.. this s my most favourite..and it worked..👍🏻👍🏻
"Tell me about yourself"
" Even better hire me and you'll know me very well"
lol!
This is funny!!! But so true! I have an interview this coming Tuesday!!!
"How do you stay organized? Are you good at multitasking? No, I do one thing at a time and do it well and shift quickly to one task at a time...because multitasking is proven to be total B.S., but you people still won't learn and keep expecting it from workers and asking your candidates about it in the interviews.
🤣
@@Wigglesworthsaid I love your comment so much
Interviewer: Tell me about yourself
Interviewee: oh my god!!! Who am i 😱
lol!
Hahaha...
Rey: Im no one.
Hahahahah
Lol😁😁
My concern is that if you've been in the work force for 15 years, have held several jobs due to being in school, then jobs being out of school that employers will yawn about every role you've ever taken even starting at fast food all the way until your current position...Not everyone has had a job where they were in it for 5 years.
K P - in that case, I would personally just share a handful of MAJOR jobs that contributed to your career accomplishments that pertains to the job opportunity.
that used to bother me but now, I told myself its my life path... my life is directed to the place im supposed to be.
Perhaps a solution would be to give a snapshot of relevant job history 🤔
Yeah, I feel like better advice would be to talk about your major work experiences -- jobs you held for the longest and experiences most related to the position you're applying for. If you've been working 20 years, no potential employer is going to want to hear about how your first job was as a bag boy at the supermarket when you were 16.
+Priscilla Singh hii
Hey, just letting you know that I really appreciate your help. I've incorporated some of your tips and got 6 interviews. Offered a job on the same day in my first interview at a Big4, so I let the other interviews go.
Grateful, thanks!
Interviewer: where do u see urself in 5 years from now??
Me: I see myself sitting on ur chair but asking better questions..
Diwash Bhattarai ahahha😂 its the good answer dude😎

Bloody oaths bro! 😂😂😂
Interviewer: Tell me about yourself.
Me: When I was 6 years old, I fell off my bike and broke my tooth. My Mom told me the tooth fairy would pay only half of the normal amount of $2 since there was only half a tooth. I left the tooth fairy a note stating that I would like to receive $3 since a broken tooth is a special rarity. It should be prized. I kindly thanked her for help. I offered her the remaining tooth for FREE but it would be delivered at no less than 6 months from this date. When awoke, I found $3 under why pillow.
This is an example of my marketing and negotiation skills. It also demonstrates how I am capable of overcoming challenges.
True or not.. I love this😂
U made me giggle. Haha
LOLOLOLOL HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!
This is GOLD hahahaha
I tell someone i have temper on get rif of the perverted , and I'm proud of myself by my first experience , but this is unsuitable, lol 😂 i ruined the interview
thank you so much for the tips on how to answer this difficult question :)) i ended up getting the job after setting a good first impression with my employer after they ask me this particular question !! but also the key is to be calm and collected and treat the interview and a casual conversation, as then you will be more confident leading to a better outcome. I wish everyone the best for their upcoming interview 🥰
I have watched this video before, I said to myself that I would come back and watch this video again for my interview, very soon . Here I’m watching it for my interview tomorrow. Please wish me luck 😊😊
You are amazing I just got three jobs in a role after watching your video God bless you my life is changed
Nice video
2 hours before my interview and here I am...watching a video on how to interview 🙃 wish me luck.
How tf am I going to tell them about my professional career if I'm applying to get my first job?

Thank you for covering this question. This is one of the many other important interview questions you covered in your other videos that I watched and prepared for before my job interview last month. I nailed the interview and I am now waiting for my employment contract to be signed. Gob bless!
Giving a snapshot of your work history is a good idea, but talking through each role is only really valuable if you're relatively new to the workforce. If you've held many positions (4+), you're probably going to lose the interviewer's interest by going through every one. 💡 Sticking to the highlights keeps it interesting and also manageable to remember. ⏳
Best answer and examples I've heard regarding this question. Never been to an interview where they didn't ask this question. Thanks for the video.
