    God I hate that I have to act like this in order to get a job. It doesn't feel authentic and it's so hard to get over it. Why does the world has to be so fake, I just want to help people, why do I have to be like this in order to get money to be able to live

    I tend to stumble in interviews because when I panic my mind goes blank, but a very good tool I’ve found is to allow myself time to think. I think people sometimes force themselves to speak when they panic because they don’t want to seem like they don’t have a good answer, and they end up stumbling through a mediocre answer - but just saying, “oh, let me think about that” and taking a few seconds to consider your answer is very useful! It gives you time to calm down and collect yourself, and makes the answer seem more genuine, as it’s something you had to take time to think about.

    I had an unexpected interview so soon and I looked up interview questions to prepare, I clicked on this one cause it's the first one that popped up! They asked me the "Tell me about yourself?" and the "Situation" questions, I usually freeze up and start panicking but after watching this video I followed the steps and I got the job!!!! Thank you so much! P.S. If your someone reading this with anxiety, channel your weaknesses as strengths, and don't forget to breathe deep! I usually have really shaky hands and I talked a lot with my hands and it seemed to really calm me down! My face usually gets really red but I wore my mask so I felt more confident! Thanks again!

I think it was mean to show what initiative I would take to solve a situation before asking for help.

  • @homoerotic85
    @homoerotic85 Před 2 lety +4

    I hate, actually despise interviews. I have always been horrible with them. An interview is me at my worse, which sucks I probably didn't get a job because I didn't do well, but-I would have been amazing at the actual job because I always strive to be the best at whatever I do... That is besides interviews. I think because I know they are judging me my mind just shuts down as I have been judged all my life for being me-gay- living in a small hick bible belt town. I wish companies would have choices, like would you rather have an interview, or would you rather do a few days to week internship with the company so they can actually SEE how well you can do at the job. Not just someone blowing smoke making themselves seem to be the best and hardest worker in the world. That's another big reason why I hate interviews I am big into words are just words, action speaks louder. I don't like to brag about myself, I would rather you SEE who I am by my actions. My whole life I have only got jobs that someone recommended me to, so they wouldn't do the usual interview. One time I did apply to a job I want being recommended to, it was really funny (and awesome,) just so happens the hiring manager that was going to do my interview she was looking over my job history and seen who my manager was at my current job. She said that if I could work as his assistant manager for 4 years that is all she needed to know! The interview was over and I got the job! Lol Ends up she had actually worked for him before, she knew how strict he was as most people couldn't handle him, or he wasn't satisfied with them. She actually quit because of him lol. That's where actions speak louder than words.

Ultimately, my actions were recognized and appreciated by my supervisor.

      Kimberly, I'm thrilled to hear you use micro-stories. These are so good to have on hand for an interview when you get nervous. Just mention a story about one of your greatest accomplishments. So good! What's the most difficult interview question you've been asked before?

    The hardest question I was asked was when the employer ask me what I would do if I get the job, and half an hour later I got another interview where that job is paying more, I was like in my mind how I would answer and honestly I did not because I never now how I would address such situation.

    • @elisaigh
      @elisaigh Před 4 lety +2

      Don't tell the truth, they want to know if you are compromised with the company! Just tell them: 'I would never accept another offer if I already accepted one or if you don't want to lie, you can say ' I would renegotiate the salary'

    • @pinkyheartx7024
      @pinkyheartx7024 Před 3 lety

      Or you could say since the job offer is set in, compared to an interview the employment isn't certain... So it's a no-brainier. You'd go with the company offering you the job and not the higher pay offering the interview yeah? That would be an appropriate way to bluff outta that question...

    Tell me about a time your supervisor corrected you on something and how did you handle it? I responded that she corrected me on [blank], but anytime I'm given direction or corrected on anything all I can do is correct my mistake, learn from it, and make sure not to make the same mistake again.
