If you're reading this, your interview is probably tomorrow morning so here's another tip: Watch several of this guy's videos at 1.5x speed. It's still easy to understand and you can cram in even more videos before the interview.
I was just gonna comment the same thing.
So true! Thanks!
My guy . thank you
That's what I did😀😀
How did you know?! Mind blown. Lol thanks.
Got my job interview in an hour, you helped me pass my last interview just hoping I pass this one🤞🏼 update: i passed 🥳😍 Thank you 😊
Good job, kid
haha bro same
Wow well done
got interview in 5 hours
Hi there. how about practice English together!
1. start w confidence, 1st 30seconds, smile & strong handshake
2. sit up right, keep eye contact
3. if they ask for drink, ask for water, it ll give ur hands smth to do
& it gives u thinking time
4. ur answers should reflect y u can help the new company, positive spin
5. story w examples that come to life
6. USP = Unique Selling Point
7. learn key phrases, but not super memorised
8. if not in (near)native language, use nuance ("rather" than "a bit")
if interviewer is not language teacher, don t worry about grammar
bc u ve been invited to the interview, while they know u re not a native
Interviewer:
Me: "I somewhat considerably wholeheartedly agree"
Lol
Hahaha.
LOL
Significantly
You are hired :)
This video is excellent! watched it before my interview on Tuesday night before my interview on Wednesday morning.... 1st interview in 7 years.... And I got offered the job yesterday!!!!🙂 Yaaaaaayyyyy! 🙂 I like your style..... Excellent stuff!!!
Congratulations.
Congrats
oMG!!!

As an employability trainer for a training organisation, these tips are useful, but I'd add: don't answer the questions like you've learned the answers. Show a bit of personality and try to turn what might feel like an interrogation (hint: interviews aren't an interrogation, that's nerves playing tricks) in to a slightly more relaxed chat about you and the company you're applying for. You're interviewer wants to know that you're the type of person who gets along with people and will gel with a team...
Thank you , just got the email from the company , i got the job . i listened to this guy at the last minute , followed all the tips, Boom !! went great . excellent tips .
They already know about your resume , they want to know if you will be a good match for the team , and how you mingle , interact , present yourself, Sell yourself .
Asim Khan Congrats
Congrates man.

Got an interview in a few hours, thanks for the tips!
update: I passed both the semifinalist, then a few weeks later, the finalist interview - got the job :)
Daniella Butler did u get the job ?
Jenna Hancock I’ve passed through the semi-finalist phase of the interview process into the finalist phase! Woohoo! This video really is magic.
I have my final interview this Saturday.
Daniella Butler did you get the job?
Master CB YES I WAS JUST NOTIFIED THAT I GOT THE JOB AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
Daniella Butler wooow nice congratulations🥳, I got called for an interview but then they said no cuz I’m not 18😭😂
best advice ever, I like when he said"2:33 you want to sound friendly but serious"
Thank you! The interviewer asked me 14 questions and was impressed by all of them. He told me he will email me soon for phase 2!
One tip I would say to all who had an interview, SEND A THANK YOU EMAIL, if you have the hiring manager email of course (he could send you an email confirming the interview before it happened), don’t dig searching for the email if you don’t have it, you could send a voicemail to.
I had my job interview on tuesday, I send my thank you email (not a template, just get ideas but never use one) on thursday about 10 am, and I got a call about 12 pm from the hiring manager offering me an employment offer, I didn’t hesitate and I accepted it :)!
I will start my job on Monday as a C# developer! Foreign english speaker writing here (I’m sure I did some speaking errors in my interview btw).

i'm not feeling this video its not giving me details...
Tell about Tourest interview questions answers
thank you this video gives me some ideas in how can I make a positive conversation with my interviewers it boost my confidence.
I am a hiring manager at a pediatric hospital in a very specialized field, Flow Cytometry. I appreciated your tips and found them to be good solid advice. I have interviewed many candidates over the last couple of years and have been surprised at some of the basics that get overlooked. I always offer water and it is more frequently declined. The fidgeting and negative talk are both really distracting. Your advice about selling oneself is important. I think candidates forget that we are often interviewing multiple candidates who not only have the same education, but have the same number of years of experience. It becomes even more critical to tells us why should we hire you, what do you bring to the table that sets you apart from the other candidates. It doesn’t always have to be a specific accomplishment either, it could be something as simple as a “can do attitude “ and the willingness to try something different that might set you apart from another candidate. The suggestion to connect on a personal level, could be the thing that gets your name remembered in the candidate review process.
my ex boss was stupid and my colleagues were all bastards. great answer
Rod M did you see the auto correct on the video changed it to “baskets” lol 😂
It's the truest answer that none of us will give lol.
Watched this video, went for my interview the next day feeling more confident, got a call a week later offering me the job.
THANK YOU.
Woah!! I got the job after practicing all the things that you mentioned! Usually they ask for a test before hiring someone but they told me that they were confident about my professionalism after talking with me. They even took the time to tell me that they were really impressed by all of my answers.
Thank you very very very much, specially for all the language hacks. English is not my native language, so I was nervous for that. Thank you and I wish you the best in everything !
So tomorrow i’ll do the interview, thanks for the advice and i hope it can help me to get my dream job. (I’ll update soon) (wish me luck) 🙏🥰
Update: FINALLY I GOT MY DREAM JOB!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Just fyi i’ll start to work in the next week 😍😍😍😍😍
johnmann it was great and i got my job!!! 🥰
I always felt self conscious about English being my second language and having an accent. Your point about it doesn't matter so long as you're clear and concise makes me more relaxed. You're right. They do know English is not my first language yet they chose to interview me regardless so I should work on the other points.
Thank you soooo much ..... I was much more confident and prepared at my interview due to you.... I got the job at New York Presbyterian Hospital!!!
I have an interview tomorrow. I really need this job, I hope I get it!
good luck!!
Chalen Carpio did you get it??
Did you get it ? 😂
did you get it ? hahah
I'm getting ready for a job interview coming up soon and found this and wanted to say, I love the tips. They were easy to follow and I love the fact you included the ones learning English in the video as well. Keep up the amazing work.
I have an interview in 3 hours, still trying to wrap my head around your tips. Thank you
Have a glass of water so you can have a drink if you’re thirsty. Wow, this advice is gold
You were amazing in motivating me for my next interview here in London. I am a non-native speaker and I have been living here for only 3 years. Your tips, in particular the one for non-native speakers like were outstanding. You helped a "great deal" and "considerably" motivated me, which made me a subscriber of your channel. Thanks...
I love how he always includes non-native English speakers !!!
They saw my CV they know I don't have the skills, they know I don't have the experience. They invited me anyway. Hah, wish me luck.
Deni Cnex hahahaha good luck mate
Wanted to update, I got the Job. Great video. 👍
Miyuden congrats!!
@@miyuden4118 what questions did they make you?
@@moisesf.7017 They told me to say something about me. I did hold my past short but informative enough that they had an idea what I did before. Then they asked how I start my workday. If I start work with coffee or what I do when I come to work.
I told them that I start mostly 10 minutes early preparing for work that I have everything ready. (no coffee, I don't drink coffee in the morning)
Then they asked the typical question where do I see myself in 10 years of now.
I told them "Heavily invested in the stock market" We had a laugh and they asked if I have stocks from the company. I answered with a not yet, explaining that It yet is too high. 🤣 We laughed again and they said that one day it will go down. To what I responded with, "most probably when you bought the other company"
They where surprised and we talked a bit about my past work and how I came to investing in the stock market.
Then they explained the work I will have in the company and asked if that sounds interesting to me. I agreed and then they asked what my salary exception is. I did what I shouldn't and answered with a number. They agreed though and said that's what they where thinking about aswell. (I somehow don't belive that, but I think that can be negotiated after a year or so).
Then it already was done, they had a smile and we talked on the way to the door. They said they will tell me the result in round about one week, which they did and they asked when I can start. ;)
Long story but I really liked that interview and one really important part is that you really should enjoy the interview. It is amazing. First time I went in an interview with a good feeling from the start til the end.
''Give a strong handshake. Ok but not so strong that you crush your interviews hand and they have to get rushed off to the hospital for an x-ray for a suspected cracked wrist'' :D :D You made my day :D
Thanks to this channel...I had 3 interviews, before the last one I watched this channel and helped alot.....I got the Job.
Congrats! 👏👏
Thank you. After years of preperation, I finally got the job at McDonalds. 34 never felt so good :)
Michael 😭sad
McDonalds?!
Idk if you meant this comment as a joke but it brightened my day and eased my nerves.
Hahaha, years of preparation for a McDonald's job. Now that's the joke of the century!
man 😭
Thank you so much for the tips, I got the job!!!!! you use humour and a relaxed approach to your methods. I'm so happy.xx
I love your "key expressions." They certainly enhace the presentation skills and give confidence to the interviewee. And it's not just for foreigners, everyone can benefit from using that approach. Brilliant!
The bonus tip is a big help to me. Interviews are often seen as a situation in which one person is in command and the other is at their mercy, but if the interviewee relaxes and sees it as a chance to get to know someone, then it can be an enjoyable conversation.
I thoroughly enjoyed this! My son will be getting an internship soon and I am sending this to him as soon as possible. Thank you, this was entertaining, educational, and enlightning.
That was an amazing lesson! Made me feel much more confident. Thank you! You're a star!
I watched this video yesterday half an hour prior to my interview. Today I was offered the job!!! I had no previous experience, and the interviewers knew that too, but I wasn’t stiff at all, I followed the tips of this video, I kept in my mind tip # 6 and they were listening attentively to me! I also liked tip #8 minute 7:35 I was relaxed, calm, collected and pleasant. I Emphasized my “ friendliness” . The employers where happy and I was told today that I interviewed really well. Thank you!
Last year, I'd got a job because of your videos! I'm really thankful for this. This year now, because of the effect caused by the pandamic, and as I am the newest member and the only contractor in the team, I need to leave the company and find a new job. 😣 I feel confident watching your videos for any job interviews 😊 please wish me luck.
Hi there, after 100% following of your advice, I got the job :) Big big thanks!!
This video is the best i have seen, your tips helped me pass my interview and i got the job. Thanks to you sir!
I'm happy to hear that.
I've recently passed an interview to dream job! Excited so much! Thanks to your vibe and energy 😁😁😁😁
my most extraordinary interview was when I was trying myself for the position of an English teacher. Instead of starting a regular conversation with the regular question, they just gave me a book and said, "Open a random page and read and act out what you are reading". Acting skills and ability to engage was the most important to them. But today I am watching this video to prepare for another interview and I think the video has just put me in the right mindset! Thank you for this amazing video!
Great video! I love the "start with confidence" tip! No amount of preparation and "correct answers" can replace confidence.
Exactly! Thanks
Ive just got a dream job. I can't thank you enough for helping me
Your UA-cam channel popped up 3 hours before interview. I took your excellent advice. Many thanks. I got the job. 🙏😊
This video series about interview skills is brilliant! Thank YOU again, Sir!

Thanks for the advice, I did the same as your advise and I am selected for the second interview.
Thanks, man! I feel much more relaxed after I watched this video.
You are very friendly and warm to watch and listen to. Thank you for the tips. I have learned new things on interviews that I never knew. My next interview will definitely be a success!

Thanks for the tips. I watched a lot of your videos last night about interviews. Today I went for an interview. I felt so confident, nailed the interview. An hour later they called and told me they are checking my references. 2 hours later I got a job offer and topped up my asking salary! Thanks for all you do to help people. And Yes, English is not my first language.

Dear Mr.Gideon, I appreciate you for your time and interest to brief us these much helpful interview tips. frankly these tips are vital to perform well at an interview. Although most of us aware of these, either due inexperience or ignorance we lost the impression. Thank you again.
7% verbal, about 38% para-verbal (intonation and ton), and almost 55% for the rest (non-verbal), so yes that's extremely important.
Thank you for the tips and advice, I fell more ready and confident about succeeding my future interviews!

Ty very much for this excellent lesson but could you please put the music down and set it at the same volume than your voice because its very loud !
I thought I did but maybe not enough.
Same here. It doesn't matter on pc but on my phone it pierced my eardrums XD Perfect lesson by the way ! Thanks !!!
I have the same problem: I raise the volume to hear your voice well but when the music starts it bursts my eardrums
By the way, thank you for the lesson. As always I learnt something knew
Wow I was just about say the same. Jejejee but teacher you are awesome even though I try to avoid british accent you have quit engaging content 👏👏👏👏
Cyril F Hmm, for some reason it didn't sound like this on my phone?! I could hear him perfectly! Weird! 😕 Guess I got lucky, or it has been fixed?! Lol
Hi Gideon,
I found your channel some days ago, by far the best of the English learning ones I have tried.
I carefully watched all videos since then.
This was my last one.
So, a request: could you make more of them about tip #9, English idioms?
Learning to use wholeheartedly and that kind of words is pretty (not very ;-) ) useful.
Cheers.
Thanks, I'm flattered by your kind words. I've noted your request. I'll see what I can do. Cheers!
Oops, you reply on the Christmas weekend: mind the karoshi! ;-)
lol. Yes, but making videos is my hobby not my job so I think it's ok.
My opinion is, that this video is one of the best!
its very inspiring , motivating and helpful !
Great tips. I'm preparing for the round 2 phone interview this week. This episode definitely helpful.
I'll come back with the good news. Cheers.
