  • In this video, we break down the goals, components, and best practices of Behavioural Interviews. While they are, for the most part, non-technical, you might find yourself faced with questions you don't feel ready to answer in an interview like this. This episode will help you understand what it's all about and how you can be genuine without shooting yourself in the foot.

    As someone who's both conducted and been apart of hundreds of tech interviews, this is probably the best video resource explaining how behavioral interviews work (and should work) and expectations.

    - *Be genuine*
    - Culture fit
    - Communication expressing idea
    - Collaboration - way to coordinate with people. best way keep you point always last.
    - Don't blame take responsibility
    - Is it positive contributor?
    - Reverse engineering dont logically tuned a answer be genuine
    - Sometime mixed answer good + bad thing.
    - Project is team work may be you are worked big chunk but don't forget give credits to the team
    - Resume should tell own story progression of jobs.
    - Remove I word and add Me and Team
    - Passion long:- running enthuse also applicable where you work
    - Critical points below
    - Be genuine
    - Thing crucially about you Career and company you trying to work and what you want next in you career.
    - Own you strength and weakness.

    The best guideline for behavioral interviews. Hands down. Fantastic job. Thank you thank you thank you.

    This is the best video I have watched on behavioral interviews after having watched about 10 hours of material. The rationale of the advice and the friendly tone is just what makes it awesome. He is approaching the audience as a friend and a mentor rather that a marketer hungry for attracting ridiculous number of viewers.
    Thank you so much! This 1 hour was well worth it!

    @pinebitway Před 7 lety +28

    Thank you! After years of teaching myself and experiencing a lot of rejection in the last 8 months, I've finally got a tech job without any commercial experience and started a new career path that I've wanted for a long time. Your realistic approach to interviews certainly helped me get there. Kudos!

    This is amazing, and I’m glad I made time to watch the whole thing through! I’m currently prepping for a recruiting coordinator interview for Airbnb, and this video totally affirmed why I want so badly to be in recruiting. Please do more!!

  • @DheerajSharma14
    @DheerajSharma14 Před 3 lety +1

    Absolutely loved it! I don’t remember if I have even watched so long on CZcams. I binged watch both system design and this episode back to back... Both of them completely worth the time and clears out a lot of apprehensions I had! Thank you for sharing them...

    Hello! I commented before and I watched your videos multiple times. I just wanted to stop by again and say thank you for this video. I just received two offers today and would not have gotten through them without your advice. Just having that sincere, honest, humble and genuine passion for learning kind of attitude will go a long ways :D

  • @alexiushale
    @alexiushale Před 7 lety +1

    This was amazing. I just watched again since I have a behavioral interview this afternoon. I took plenty of notes and feel ready to go. Thanks again.

  • @TheRover2010
    @TheRover2010 Před 5 lety +7

    Thanks for the video, it is excellent.
    As someone who is from a different culture and came to a different country, I had to play by the rules described in the local HR articles. For example, they mention that saying "I want this job because it pays well" is not perceived well in the US companies. So I had to come up with some bullshit which was perceived well.
    It did help me to get high paying jobs in well known companies. Sometimes I got myself into a situation when I hated my job. But generally, I'm pretty good at doing my job and have never been fired (that just means I've never got impacted by a major layoff and never badly screw up anything personally). So for me it is just a matter of getting through the interview playing by the rules of not well known me culture.
    I am trying to be brutally honest on my interviews now, it is not an easy thing to do after all :) Most of the time I hear back - thank you for your straight talk, but thank you. I do hope it will finally get me into the right place in my career though.

    Your explainations are excellent. They're right to the point and exactly what someone who's attempting to get into this field needs to hear. I hope that the break between uploads is more because you're busy, and not that you're no longer making videos.
