00:01:40.259 those five higher view interview tips
00:01:43.320 and I will then give you the example
00:01:45.900 questions and top scoring responses
00:01:48.720 okay higher view tip number one make
00:01:52.140 sure you familiarize yourself with the
00:01:55.140 higher view platform before your
00:01:57.720 interview that's really important don't
00:01:59.880 go on to the higher view platform
00:02:01.500 literally a few minutes before your
00:02:03.659 interview go on it with plenty of time
00:02:06.000 to spare and familiarize yourself with
00:02:08.758 how it operates because that will help
00:02:10.979 to reduce your nerves higher view
00:02:13.920 interview tip number two make sure you
00:02:17.700 think carefully about the location you
00:02:21.000 will undertake your higher view
00:02:22.980 interview in
00:02:24.780 make sure you choose a quiet location
00:02:27.120 that is free from distraction so you
00:02:29.520 won't be disturbed has a strong Wi-Fi or
00:02:32.640 Internet connection and also make sure
00:02:34.620 your laptop or device is fully charged
00:02:37.739 the last thing you want to happen is to
00:02:39.959 run out of battery part way through your
00:02:43.140 higher view interview so choose a quiet
00:02:45.599 location that's free from distraction so
00:02:48.120 you can concentrate and perform to the
00:02:50.400 best of your abilities and there's also
00:02:52.319 a strong Wi-Fi and internet connection
00:02:53.900 and your device is fully charged higher
00:02:56.879 view tip number three this is really
00:02:59.220 important
00:03:00.540 now with all job roles there is a job
00:03:03.660 description make sure you read the job
00:03:06.239 description for the position you have
00:03:08.700 applied for before your higher view
00:03:10.680 interview and consider carefully how
00:03:13.560 your skills and qualities will match the
00:03:16.379 position so for example if it says on
00:03:19.980 the job description that you must be
00:03:22.140 able to prioritize your work in line
00:03:25.080 with the company's objectives then when
00:03:27.420 they say to you during the higher view
00:03:29.040 interview what are your strengths you
00:03:30.959 can respond by saying something like
00:03:32.819 this
00:03:33.720 one of my strengths is my ability to
00:03:36.599 prioritize my work to meet the demands
00:03:38.519 of the company I achieve this by
00:03:40.680 creating a list of tasks I am
00:03:43.019 responsible for before color coding them
00:03:45.480 in order of priority red tasks are
00:03:48.900 Urgent and come first orange tasks
00:03:51.360 second and green tasks can be left for
00:03:54.120 when I have more time available now
00:03:56.280 that's a clever answer because what you
00:03:57.900 are doing is responding with an answer
00:04:00.599 that matches the job description it's a
00:04:04.140 clever way and it will really help you
00:04:05.940 to pass your higher view interview so
00:04:09.299 the tip is make sure you read quickly
00:04:11.819 the job description for the position you
00:04:14.220 have applied for and then make sure you
00:04:16.620 match the requirements of the role in
00:04:18.660 some of your answers
00:04:20.220 higher view interview tip number four
00:04:22.380 this is another really important one
00:04:24.660 practice your answers out loud sat in
00:04:28.620 front of your computer or laptop before
00:04:30.780 your interview because this will help
00:04:33.360 you to become familiar with your
00:04:34.860 surroundings and also it's important to
00:04:38.280 make sure that your answer comes within
00:04:40.380 the time limit that higher view will
00:04:42.300 give you so depending on the interview
00:04:43.560 question you will have up to three
00:04:46.199 minutes to answer the question so make
00:04:48.120 sure you practice with a timer
00:04:50.780 beforehand because if you go over the
00:04:54.479 time limit then the remainder of your
00:04:56.280 response will not be assessed so make
00:04:58.800 sure you stick within the time limit
00:05:00.840 practice your answers out loud
00:05:03.440 beforehand that's also important because
00:05:05.940 hireview the platform will pick up on
00:05:08.520 your energy and enthusiasm levels so
00:05:11.520 make sure you talk with passion and
00:05:14.040 enthusiasm so as I said if you go over
00:05:17.520 the time limit of three minutes then
00:05:19.560 your answer will not be assessed the
00:05:22.380 remaining part of it that you give
00:05:23.840 higher view tip number five perhaps the
00:05:27.240 most important one is of course to
00:05:28.979 prepare answers to the following common
00:05:31.979 hire view interview questions so let me
00:05:34.199 now give you some example higher view
00:05:37.080 interview questions a couple of tips for
00:05:39.120 answering each question correctly and

00:05:52.919 answer don't forget I just mentioned

00:05:57.240 so be enthusiastic about the role you

00:07:41.759 scoring response tip number one so I
00:07:44.400 cannot over emphasize how important it
00:07:47.460 is to research the company you are
00:07:50.039 applying to work for before you have
00:07:52.319 your higher view interview make sure you
00:07:55.139 research their products and services

00:07:59.639 actually do and their plans for the

00:08:05.819 forget to follow them on social media so
00:08:08.580 you are aware of their latest news
00:08:11.340 stories here's my top scoring response
00:08:13.800 to help you
00:08:15.120 why do you want to work for this company
00:08:16.800 I want to work for this company for
00:08:19.080 several reasons having studied the
00:08:21.660 company it is clear you are a market
00:08:23.759 leader your product reviews are
00:08:26.099 outstanding which tells me you care
00:08:28.440 about your customers needs and you have
00:08:30.660 exciting plans for the future I want to
00:08:33.299 work for this company because I will be
00:08:35.279 pushed and challenged get to work on
00:08:37.559 exciting projects and be supported by a
00:08:40.620 forward-thinking management team who
00:08:42.599 have created an inclusive working
00:08:44.580 environment where people are respected
00:08:46.980 and there is opportunity for everyone
00:08:49.260 that is a powerful positive answer that
00:08:52.680 will help you pass your higher view
00:08:54.420 interview at the first attempt here's
00:08:57.180 the next interview question I recommend
00:08:59.160 you prepare for higher view question
00:09:01.440 number three is how would you handle a
00:09:04.019 disagreement with someone on your team
00:09:06.540 this is a really difficult question be
00:09:09.120 careful how you answer it here's two
00:09:11.220 tips
00:09:12.120 tip number one so this is one of the
00:09:14.760 most common hire view interview
00:09:16.800 questions do not say you will inform
00:09:19.860 your manager about the disagreements so
00:09:21.899 they can advise on the best way to deal
00:09:24.000 with it instead they want to hear you
00:09:26.100 say that you will resolve the
00:09:28.740 disagreement by being professional
00:09:30.600 putting the team's needs first and
00:09:33.120 reaching a compromise with your
00:09:35.880 co-worker here's a great example answer
00:09:38.880 higher view interview question how would
00:09:41.279 you handle a disagreement with someone
00:09:42.899 on your team
00:09:44.700 I would handle the disagreement by
00:09:46.800 putting the needs of my team first if a
00:09:49.860 disagreement is left it can get worse
00:09:52.140 and team relations could deteriorate
00:09:54.660 first I would assess my own actions to
00:09:58.260 see if I were contributing to the
00:10:00.060 disagreement I would then get an
00:10:02.100 understanding of my co-workers views and
00:10:04.260 feelings before suggesting an amicable
00:10:06.839 Way Forward we were both comfortable
00:10:09.000 with and that enabled us to move forward
00:10:11.160 and progress with the company's goals so
00:10:14.160 that is a mature smart and professional
00:10:16.980 answer that shows you are going to be a
00:10:19.320 great fit for their team
00:10:21.360 higher view interview question number
00:10:23.399 four what is your biggest weakness
00:10:25.860 here's two tips again be really careful
00:10:28.560 how you answer this tough question tip
00:10:30.959 number one do not say you do not have
00:10:33.240 any weaknesses and also do not say your
00:10:35.880 weaknesses you are a perfectionist lots
00:10:38.760 of candidates say this it's a really
00:10:40.860 poor answer higher view we'll see
00:10:43.500 straight through it tip number two
00:10:45.000 instead give an honest and genuine
00:10:47.100 weakness that does not match the job
00:10:49.500 description that's why it's really
00:10:50.820 important to read it and showing your
00:10:52.980 answer that you want to improve and
00:10:54.720 develop on your weakness how do you do
00:10:56.820 that here's a great example answer
00:10:59.940 what is your biggest weakness my biggest
00:11:02.220 weakness is I am not very good at public
00:11:04.980 speaking I can remember giving a talk at
00:11:07.500 College to my class and despite
00:11:09.600 preparing well for it I felt very
00:11:11.399 nervous now although this weakness won't
00:11:14.160 affect my ability to perform our duties
00:11:16.620 competently in this position if there
00:11:19.320 are any opportunities for me to give
00:11:21.000 talks or presentations to my team in
00:11:23.399 this role then I would like to give in
00:11:25.320 another try
00:11:26.579 so that is a clever answer because
00:11:28.860 public speaking is not generally needed
00:11:31.380 in the majority of job roles but you are
00:11:34.380 saying you gave it a try once you're
00:11:36.120 prepared well but your nerves got the
00:11:38.339 better of you but you would like to give
00:11:40.260 it another try if the opportunity arises
00:11:42.420 in the company so it shows that you do
00:11:44.940 want to improve and develop it's a
00:11:47.160 really smart answer higher view
00:11:49.260 interview question number five is
00:11:51.899 tell me about a time when you failed
00:11:54.120 this is a really difficult one here's
00:11:56.579 two tips tip number one do not say
00:11:58.560 you've never failed we have all failed
00:12:00.899 but it is how we respond to failure that
00:12:04.440 is the important thing so this question
00:12:06.060 is assessing how you react to failure
00:12:08.880 and whether you use it as an opportunity
00:12:11.279 to grow learn and improve tip number two
00:12:14.160 I recommend you use what is called the
00:12:16.800 star technique to answer this common
00:12:19.200 higher view behavioral interview
00:12:21.300 question so star stands for situation
00:12:24.000 task action and result let me show you
00:12:27.360 the star technique in action when
00:12:29.700 responding to this common higher view
00:12:31.860 interview question
00:12:33.720 I studied an online training course
00:12:36.360 several years ago because I wanted to
00:12:38.519 improve my knowledge of computers it was
00:12:40.920 a short course but there was an
00:12:43.139 examination at the end and unfortunately
00:12:45.060 because I thought I knew everything I
00:12:47.579 failed to the exam I was embarrassed to
00:12:50.160 have failed but I had nobody else to
00:12:52.079 blame but myself it was my task to learn
00:12:55.440 from the situation put things right and
00:12:57.720 make sure I never failed again I spent a
00:13:01.019 week studying took the examination again
00:13:03.480 and passed with high grades since that
00:13:06.480 day I now prepare very well for
00:13:08.880 everything and I never take things for
00:13:11.639 granted I have learned that preparation
00:13:14.100 and hard work are vital to success in
00:13:17.279 every situation that's a great
00:13:19.380 professional response that will put you
00:13:21.120 across as a smart and forward-thinking
00:13:23.700 employee who is not afraid to fail but

00:00:00.000 you have a higher view video interview

00:00:01.860 coming up soon in order to get prepared
00:00:04.080 you study the jet posting and you read
00:00:05.790 about the company you're interviewing
00:00:07.049 with you even read about the
00:00:08.639 technicalities you need to handle in
00:00:10.469 order to have a smooth video interview
00:00:12.480 you just have one thing left to make
00:00:14.340 sure you're ready and it's preparing
00:00:15.900 potential questions that's why in this
00:00:17.910 video you'll get to take a mock higher
00:00:19.710 view video interview with me we're going
00:00:21.600 to analyze the top 10 questions you
00:00:23.430 might get and how to answer them with
00:00:25.199 examples for you to get some inspiration
00:00:27.029 those potential questions come right
00:00:29.099 from the higher view website itself but
00:00:31.170 also from the experience of students all
00:00:33.149 over the world in universities such as
00:00:34.739 Duke University and the University of
00:00:36.750 Colorado the problem is most people
00:00:38.790 don't prepare potential questions the
00:00:40.800 right way using outdated examples and
00:00:42.989 answers not aligned with the company you
00:00:45.090 want to work for that's why for each
00:00:46.950 question we'll see I will give you the
00:00:48.870 required elements you need to mention
00:00:50.550 the things to avoid saying and one clear
00:00:53.280 example so take a piece of paper and pen
00:00:55.710 and let's start question number one tell
00:00:58.199 me about a time you didn't get along
00:00:59.699 with a co-worker companies loved to ask
00:01:03.000 this question because the situation will
00:01:04.799 happen no matter where you work they
00:01:07.110 want to know if you're a team player and
00:01:08.790 that you know how to handle a situation
00:01:10.470 like that so what to mention talk about
00:01:13.470 soft skills that make you look like a
00:01:15.119 good team player for example that you're
00:01:17.130 a good listener and you're in pathetic
00:01:18.720 and that's what you use to handle
00:01:20.640 conflict bonus point if you can mention
00:01:22.799 a soft skill that the company really
00:01:24.689 needs so some mistakes to avoid avoid
00:01:27.659 say you didn't have any conflict because
00:01:29.369 it will just mean you're lying or that
00:01:31.079 you just get pushed around because you
00:01:32.670 agree to everything so here's an example
00:01:34.409 so last semester I had a group project
00:01:36.540 with three other people and I wanted to
00:01:38.939 take a part of the project I felt I
00:01:40.920 could handle most but one of my
00:01:42.750 colleague really wanted that part as
00:01:44.579 well and he didn't want to negotiate at
00:01:46.829 first so my first initiative was to ask
00:01:49.320 him why he wanted to take that part in
00:01:51.689 particular and because I asked I found
00:01:54.329 out that he was scared to underperform
00:01:56.549 if he was assigned another part of the
00:01:58.770 project because he didn't really
00:01:59.969 understand the material so at the end we
00:02:02.759 negotiated and we ended up working
00:02:04.380 together on that particular part and I
00:02:06.659 really helped him in other
00:02:08.318 of the project so that he would get more
00:02:10.359 comfortable in the future this answer is
00:02:14.620 great because it shows you listen
00:02:16.150 carefully to other people and that you
00:02:17.769 try to understand their issue and from
00:02:19.989 where it comes from you also show you
00:02:21.909 can find a proper solution that leaves
00:02:23.590 everyone happy next question question
00:02:26.920 number two what made you leave your
00:02:28.659 previous job basically interviewers
00:02:31.269 asked this question to know your
00:02:32.739 motivations behind your move do you have
00:02:34.870 a valid reason and are you in good terms
00:02:37.150 with your last company my friend Byron
00:02:39.340 Clark mentions on his blog to use the
00:02:41.290 more of technique instead of saying you
00:02:43.959 lacked from something for example I
00:02:45.819 lacked opportunities say I am in a point
00:02:48.189 in my career where I want more
00:02:50.169 leadership mention only positive aspects
00:02:52.419 behind your decision and oriented
00:02:54.010 towards why you think this current job
00:02:55.810 you're interviewing for is a good move
00:02:57.790 for you and your skills some mistakes to
00:03:00.310 avoid always stay on the positive even
00:03:02.530 if you left because you didn't like your
00:03:04.120 old boss or the company never badmouth
00:03:06.519 your previous organization because
00:03:08.530 employers will just think you'll do the
00:03:10.239 same with them also if you were laid off
00:03:12.459 or fired don't lie because companies can
00:03:15.009 easily find out so I feel like I learned
00:03:17.590 all the technical parts of a project so
00:03:21.009 I learned how to code how to communicate
00:03:22.840 efficiently with clients how to organize
00:03:25.030 my work to meet deadlines and now I feel
00:03:27.669 like it's the right time and I'm ready
00:03:29.919 to take on more responsibilities and
00:03:32.109 take more of the leader in a project
00:03:35.400 this answer shows what type of person
00:03:37.989 you are you're ambitious you know what
00:03:40.120 you want and you want to further develop
00:03:42.069 your career
00:03:42.849 companies want motivated individuals who
00:03:44.829 thrive for more and that's exactly what
00:03:47.229 you said moving on to the third question
00:03:49.720 question number three tell me about
00:03:51.790 yourself you will most certainly get
00:03:54.129 this question because any viewers will
00:03:55.840 want to know basically who you are what
00:03:58.150 you were doing why are you looking for a
00:04:00.129 new job and what type of person you are
00:04:01.810 to determine if you fit with the job so
00:04:04.449 if you're a student or a recent grad
00:04:06.250 start by mentioning how you chose you
00:04:08.049 your University and field of study what
00:04:10.629 type of work or side projects you've
00:04:12.219 done and why are you looking for a new
00:04:14.019 job right now if you have a bit more
00:04:15.759 experience then start with your last job
00:04:17.829 what you've done in it and what's your
00:04:19.959 next steps in your career
00:04:21.810 please don't talk about personal issues
00:04:23.820 or hobbies if they don't fit with the
00:04:25.680 role or the context this question is
00:04:27.720 meant for you to sell your skillset in a
00:04:29.639 subtle way to the company and prove you
00:04:31.650 fit with the culture so here's an
00:04:33.300 example so I chose to study information
00:04:35.880 systems after I saw how technology can
00:04:38.550 positively change our lives and
00:04:40.230 businesses I'm drawn to complex subjects
00:04:43.200 I don't understand for example I
00:04:44.940 recently learned how to code in Python
00:04:46.590 just to know how databases worked and
00:04:48.960 that's what led me to an opportunity an
00:04:51.300 exciting opportunity as an internship in
00:04:53.580 a local business near my house where I
00:04:56.550 developed our customer database to help
00:04:58.410 them take better decisions and now that
00:05:00.960 I graduated I want to further develop
00:05:02.940 those skills those IT skills by working
00:05:05.490 with Fortune 500 companies to understand
00:05:08.400 how to make them more valuable this is
00:05:11.040 just a short version of all that you
00:05:12.960 could have said but you see how this
00:05:14.729 entry tells a lot about me it shows I am
00:05:17.220 a curious person that I'm someone who
00:05:19.050 likes to learn and that I know what I
00:05:20.910 want in my next job I also talk about my
00:05:23.669 experience and how I got it so that's
00:05:25.710 enough information for the interviewer
00:05:27.150 to see Who I am moving on to the first
00:05:29.729 question question number four why should
00:05:32.460 we hire you companies want to know
00:05:34.289 what's in it for them they want to see
00:05:36.150 what they're winning if they hire you
00:05:37.860 and that's your chance of showing that
00:05:39.630 you need to mention the key skills or
00:05:41.640 experience you've previously read in the
00:05:43.410 job posting if they say they need team
00:05:45.450 players and people who know how to sell
00:05:47.280 you have to mention previous work you've
00:05:49.169 done that match with these requirements
00:05:51.240 some mistakes to avoid talking about
00:05:53.610 yourself this question is everything but
00:05:56.250 about you mentioning you should be hired
00:05:58.229 because you are passionate about the
00:05:59.820 company or you like the product and the
00:06:01.889 opportunities won't cut it
00:06:03.570 here's an example so I have noticed
00:06:06.870 based on my research on LinkedIn that
00:06:08.520 successful employees in your
00:06:10.260 organization are leaders and so in
00:06:13.020 university I often had to lead all the
00:06:15.150 projects I was involved in and I had to
00:06:17.370 lead teams from 3 to 5 people usually
00:06:20.580 and I guided the conversations towards a
00:06:22.950 good planning and divided the tasks
00:06:25.080 based on the strengths of the team so I
00:06:27.450 learned how to listen carefully to
00:06:29.280 teammates and it really helped me
00:06:31.409 resolve
00:06:32.420 she's very fast when it occurred I look
00:06:35.360 forward to leading projects and
00:06:36.770 initiatives in your organization as I
00:06:38.840 see myself girl on that path in this
00:06:41.090 answer you mentioned you've done primary
00:06:42.770 research about the role which is always
00:06:44.300 good to show you also pinpointed a
00:06:46.700 particular skill this company needs the
00:06:48.560 most and you gave a clear example on how
00:06:50.900 you have it how you developed it and why
00:06:53.240 you want to further use it in the
00:06:54.740 organization bonus point you also shared
00:06:57.140 that you're excited about it which is
00:06:58.910 super important because companies want
00:07:00.530 motivated individuals question number
00:07:02.900 five give us an understanding of the job
00:07:05.330 you applied for this question has one
00:07:08.150 purpose make the difference between
00:07:09.560 candidates applying for any job and the
00:07:11.930 one who really wants this one they want
00:07:14.300 to determine if you were passionate
00:07:15.440 enough to study the job posting and
00:07:17.120 understand everything that this job
00:07:19.070 entails that's why you need to read and
00:07:21.080 reread the job posting read what other
00:07:23.420 people are saying about the job and if
00:07:25.100 possible discuss with current employees
00:07:27.140 this way you will be able to basically
00:07:29.060 repeat the chapel's thing in your own
00:07:30.800 words the mistake people who didn't
00:07:32.720 prepare well too is staying super
00:07:34.880 general mentioning bits of what they
00:07:36.530 remember after about the job posting I
00:07:38.570 can really give a specific example on
00:07:40.520 this one because it really depends on
00:07:41.900 what job you applied for but basically
00:07:43.730 you will want to mention what a typical
00:07:45.320 day would look like what are the main
00:07:47.300 responsibilities you'll handle in your
00:07:48.950 role and with whom you're going to work
00:07:50.960 with question number six tell me what
00:07:53.570 you know about our company depending on
00:07:56.090 the job companies want to know if you
00:07:57.890 stay updated about industry news and
00:07:59.570 that will help you do a better job that
00:08:01.940 comes with your company research if you
00:08:03.620 applied to a big four firm for example
00:08:05.420 you should know how they're doing in the
00:08:07.640 industry so mention how the company is
00:08:09.950 doing in the current market what new
00:08:11.690 products have they released recently
00:08:13.400 what breaking news did you hear about
00:08:15.140 them etc so I read last week that your
00:08:19.400 company is investing thirteen million
00:08:21.620 dollars in a new HQ in New York City and
00:08:24.500 I think it's a great move because it
00:08:25.880 will help company X release products
00:08:28.070 faster in the market and target a wider
00:08:30.350 audience now that they have a presence
00:08:32.059 in the East Coast so first you prove you
00:08:34.700 actually read the news and that you
00:08:36.470 studied how the news affected the
00:08:38.059 company you even gave your own opinion
00:08:40.669 on the news and how it will benefit the
00:08:42.710 company organizations want people who
00:08:44.840 are aware
00:08:45.560 and are up to speed or have the
00:08:47.210 potential to be up to speed by
00:08:48.740 themselves and that's what you just
00:08:50.300 proved with this answer question number
00:08:52.400 seven what do you do when you're not
00:08:54.560 working a variation of this question
00:08:56.600 might be what's your passion this
00:08:58.340 question is asked to get to know you
00:08:59.840 better as a person and to potentially
00:09:01.820 see if you fit the company's culture
00:09:03.710 they want to know if you're going to be
00:09:05.570 a good colleague and if it'll be fun to
00:09:07.730 work with you so you want to mention
00:09:09.350 some of your hobbies your or occupations
00:09:11.660 that you're truly passionate about with
00:09:13.610 details and clear examples the clearer
00:09:16.250 you are the better image you give of
00:09:18.350 yourself the number one mistake people
00:09:20.029 make here is laying out 10 hobbies they
00:09:22.640 have without giving proper explanation
00:09:24.770 and if you do that you come across as
00:09:26.750 someone who doesn't really have a hobby
00:09:28.310 because you stayed too many and don't
00:09:30.350 sound passionate at all which doesn't
00:09:32.630 give the company a good image of what
00:09:34.040 kind of person you are here's an example
00:09:36.460 so I'm a huge sports fan I play soccer
00:09:39.860 with a team I personally built with some
00:09:42.140 of those friends on Friday evenings and
00:09:44.570 we registered our team in a local
00:09:46.400 championship and we are currently in
00:09:47.960 this semi final so I'm super excited for
00:09:50.360 that when I don't play I watch and I
00:09:53.420 haven't missed a single Real Madrid game
00:09:56.030 in the last four years and that's why I
00:09:58.670 plan I'm planning to travel to Madrid
00:10:01.550 next summer hopefully to watch my
00:10:03.140 favorite team play and I noticed on
00:10:05.990 LinkedIn that your organization has a
00:10:07.700 soccer team as well so I'd be super
00:10:09.860 pumped to join it as well this
00:10:11.690 explanation gives us all the details we
00:10:13.670 need what do you play where you play and
00:10:15.890 when you play you even give us a little
00:10:17.660 bit of context which is always relevant
00:10:19.880 I know how deeply passionate you are
00:10:21.740 about soccer and if I am soccer fan or
00:10:24.050 if this organization indeed has a soccer
00:10:26.390 team you'll be under spot right away
00:10:28.480 question number eight where do you see
00:10:30.709 yourself in five years companies want to
00:10:33.560 know if you have goals for yourself and
00:10:35.510 if you have a vision for your career it
00:10:37.459 is a common trait among successful
00:10:39.380 individuals and they want to make sure
00:10:41.120 you have it too so you don't have to be
00:10:43.010 super specific but mention what next
00:10:45.170 steps you want to take after doing the
00:10:46.970 job you're interviewing for make sure
00:10:48.920 you stay relevant though the worst
00:10:50.870 mistake you could do is here is stated
00:10:52.970 goal there is unrelated or worse in
00:10:55.339 competition with the role your interview
00:10:57.270 with for example saying you want to
00:10:59.100 create your own business or work at a
00:11:01.050 larger company than this one so first I
00:11:03.330 want to handle all the technical aspects
00:11:05.220 of the project right now in the role I'm
00:11:07.050 applying for but in five years I see
00:11:08.940 myself leading those projects so
00:11:10.950 handling a team maybe do a little bit of
00:11:13.860 project management and being involved in
00:11:16.560 the sales process so I would love to
00:11:18.360 pitch our services to prospective
00:11:19.890 clients and help them through the
00:11:22.440 project along the line first you state
00:11:25.020 what you need to do if you were hired
00:11:26.880 today then you give a nice answer about
00:11:29.040 what you want in the next few years the
00:11:31.560 more you know about the career path of
00:11:33.120 the role the easier it will be for you
00:11:35.010 to answer this question and you see how
00:11:36.840 even in five years you'll be valuable to
00:11:39.330 the company helping them land more
00:11:41.370 opportunities question number nine
00:11:43.080 describe a situation where you were part
00:11:45.690 of a failed project this is similar to
00:11:49.110 the question tell me about a time you
00:11:50.700 failed companies ask that to see if you
00:11:52.860 acknowledge past mistakes if you're a
00:11:54.690 reliable person and how you will handle
00:11:56.820 future challenges you want to mention
00:11:59.190 that you're accountable you take
00:12:00.540 ownership when it's your fault and that
00:12:02.280 you have a growth mindset
00:12:03.540 meaning that you bounce back after you
00:12:05.100 fail learning from your mistakes and
00:12:06.900 doing better in the future some mistakes
00:12:08.970 to avoid you don't want to blame your
00:12:11.040 co-workers or your old boss for mistakes
00:12:13.290 even if you think you had nothing to do
00:12:15.240 with it also don't stay too big of a
00:12:17.730 mistake or or don't state a mistake that
00:12:19.740 is too related to the job you're
00:12:21.510 applying for
00:12:22.080 you don't want to add worries to the
00:12:23.970 interviewer watching your video so in my
00:12:26.850 last job I used to say yes to everything
00:12:29.610 I was asked for I guess I thought I just
00:12:32.070 wanted to become more valuable but I
00:12:35.010 ended up turning some projects late by
00:12:37.260 one week because I had too much in my
00:12:39.870 plate I learned to be more realistic in
00:12:42.150 my deadlines and in my workload saying
00:12:44.460 yes only to what I knew I could do
00:12:46.860 within the deadline but also suggesting
00:12:49.470 great colleagues and resources to help
00:12:51.330 me in tasks I knew I couldn't do alone
00:12:53.640 so you see how you first stated alleged
00:12:56.580 mistake many people struggle with saying
00:12:58.380 no at the right time but then you
00:13:00.120 acknowledge you're a mistake and you say
00:13:01.890 what you learned precisely and what you
00:13:03.990 did differently later on and that's the
00:13:06.180 right formula to succeed in this answer
00:13:08.510 last question what
00:13:10.560 your greatest weakness companies want to
00:13:14.880 know if your acknowledge that you have
00:13:16.590 flaws and want to know what you're doing
00:13:18.450 about it they also want to know if
00:13:19.890 you're going to state something that
00:13:21.300 will be a red flag for the job you are
00:13:23.100 interviewing for always mention a
00:13:25.140 weakness related to a skill you want to
00:13:27.029 master and mention what steps are you
00:13:29.010 taking to overcome this weakness the
00:13:31.380 worst mistake you could make in this
00:13:33.330 question is mentioning a weakness
00:13:35.130 related to your personality such as
00:13:37.770 you're lazy or you lack motivation on
00:13:40.020 Monday mornings those are more tricky to
00:13:42.000 work with and companies don't want to
00:13:43.529 deal with that as they say companies can
00:13:45.990 train you for skills but can rarely
00:13:47.640 change you and your personality so
00:13:49.710 lately I've been struggling with
00:13:51.710 building a persuasive PowerPoint
00:13:54.210 presentations so I write too much text
00:13:56.279 and I don't include too many visuals so
00:13:59.190 that's why I recently took a course an
00:14:01.500 online course in udemy - to learn about
00:14:04.080 the storytelling behind great
00:14:06.150 presentations so I'm learning the basics
00:14:08.550 right now but it's starting to show in
00:14:10.230 the next I'm currently building and I
00:14:12.120 would be it would be a pleasure to show
00:14:14.010 some of them to you so you see this
00:14:16.620 weakness is related to something that is
00:14:18.270 teachable which is always good and
00:14:19.800 easier for companies to handle you also
00:14:22.020 mention clear steps on how you're
00:14:23.460 tackling this new weakness with a great
00:14:25.500 impression on how you're improving those
00:14:29.490 10 questions that I have chosen were the
00:14:32.100 most popular ones based on my research
00:14:34.050 and hopefully you will get one of those
00:14:36.630 and hopefully you will get them right as
00:14:38.640 well but don't forget that even if you
00:14:40.200 prepared good answers that's just one
00:14:42.089 part of a successful high review video
00:14:44.310 interview you still have to nail your
00:14:46.110 body language and all the technical side
00:14:48.150 of the video interview if you want to
00:14:50.850 succeed if you want to learn how to
00:14:52.230 prepare a video interview before
00:14:53.940 preparing questions and how to avoid the
