    I had my HRBP interview today and I wanted to let you know that I wouldn't have done as well without your videos. Your guidance and insight was soooo helpful. I downloaded your 90 day plan and edited it with my ideas and the hiring manager loved it. Thank you sooo much. Even if I don't get the job, I know that I did my best, with your help ❤️

      @Sanja Williams Hi Sanja! I am the only internal employee who has made it to the last round of interviews with the Chief Experience Officer who is a really tough interviewer. Any advice?

      @@stacyharpold9790 Hi Stacy, congratulations on progressing further in your interview process 🎉 Do you have any external candidates going for the role?
      Did they say what the interview will focus on, is it a competency based interview, presentation or just an informal chat?
      I find with internal candidates it can be tricky indeed. Did you manage to speak to them to see what they will want from you on the day? if you haven't, I would send them an email or ask for a short call to understand what they would want you do/prepare for it. It is simply being proactive and ensuring you do well vs not contacting them in the first place.
      As a last round with a tough interviewer, it is all about ensuring you convince them you can deliver in your role and also understand from day 1 what is expected from you by contracting properly, you have done your homework about the role to understand gaps, challenges, spend some time on data as that always works well to referee to, be ready to give your views on the challenges and some initial solutions. It is always about proposals, recommendations, solutions rather than just one way to do something.
      If this is the HRBP role you went for, there will be expectation you can create a people or action plan relevant to your remit and deliver against it. Perhaps you have some ideas and suggestions you want to pilot, such establishing a people board for example.
      Being delivery focused, producing evidence of your progress is key for me and it works well as most leaders want delivery focused people.
      If they ask you to comment on something to give a view, you could express it and then if you have an example where you have done it, you can simply refer to it. For example, they could ask you to comment on the current challenges in X department you would partner and what you would do. You could say, for example, I understand they have skills shortage concerns, high demand and low supply, with a high resignation rate. This is similar to what I have already done/led on in X department. Would you like me to take you through the example. If yes, you can say. I led on creating a people plan that focused on upskilling the entire team, established training plan with a budget in place, reduced resignation rate by ensuring managers proactively managed high retention risk employees through talent reviews. You can also refer to the example you did in the current organisation, or external role you did to bring your whole CV to life, don't limit it to only the current role/organisation.
      If you would like to discuss in detail - you can always book a call with me. www.focusyourself.co.uk/book-online
      Good luck in any event, keep me posited

      @@SanjaWilliams Hi Sanja - Thank you for your thorough feedback. I should have prefaced my response with a little background. I am working at a credit union and have been for almost 2 years currently in the HR department as a Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist. I've worked very closely with the HRBPs and HR manager on all of my positions, salary negotiations and business partner relationships with senior leaders on all open positions in the company. The HRBPs report directly into the HR Manager which is who I passed the 1st round of interviews with. She is working with me to pass the 2nd with the Chief Experience Officer. If I get this position it will be my first time as a HRBP. There are two open positions, one they want to fill with an experienced HRBP and one internally (with me, fingers crossed). I believe it's an informal chat with the Chief since she already knows me and how I work (I'm currently working on filling the VP HR in our department and all communication goes through the Chief).
      I will be bringing my 30/60/90 presentation that I based off of your model. The HR Manager thought it was so great and she only made 2 edits to the information I provided. So I will be bringing that into the Chiefs interview. As you stated I feel that the Chief will be asking about the business lines I will be supporting and how to lower retention rate. Since I will be supporting the Operations team (branches/locations of the bank and positions like Teller and Banker and Branch Managers) she will definitely want to know how I can retain employees since our turnover rate is about 24%. I have to try to come up with a new idea, I know that the key is to review manager trainings, recognition program, and regular employee checkins not just in the first 90 days.
      Our credit union is small right now but we will be growing nationally over a period of times (I live on Long Island, NY). We currently only have 900 employees, 9billion assets, and growing. Thank you so much for your advice. I will re-read your notes and more videos. My interview is this Wednesday, so not much time to prepare.
      Thank you again,
      Stacy

      Hi Oliver. Thank you for your comment and watching my video. The role sounds great.
      I have just secured a new role myself which I started on 6 June. I am working on a video with questions I was asked in a number of interviews that I will publish in a day or so [a few other people asked me and I thought it would be a great idea to create the video].
      For now, be ready with your examples around your technical knowledge and abilities, behaviours.
      Always answer with I did this or that [not we]. What was the situation, what was the action what was the result. If an interview is 60 mins long with around 5 questions, then realistically your answers should not be more than 5-7 mins. They can ask follow ups if need be. Always have questions ready for the panel, if more than one person interviewing you, ask them each a questions to feel involved.
      Think about below questions:
      1. Tell me about a time, within the last year, when you solved a complex problem that created competitive advantage for the organisation.
      2. Tell me about a time when you thought of an innovative way of dealing with an issue at work that delivered exceptional value to the organisation.
      3. Tell me about a time when you inspired an individual or team (could be internal or external stakeholders) to do something differently or change their point of view
      4. Tell me about a time when you shared an unpopular opinion or discussed an important topic with others where there was significant disagreement
      5. Tell me about a challenging issue you have worked on as part of a team within the last year where you experimented with a new approach as part of the solution
      6. Tell me about a time when you were asked to do something you have never done before and took a risk on the solution
      7. Tell me about your most impactful strength and most important development area you learned through the feedback from others
      8. Tell me about how you have supported the development of others
      9. Tell me about a time when you created an environment of trust in which individual differences were embraced which enabled you
      to achieve a specific goal
