This is a great one. I especially liked the bit of not asking about the work-life balance in the organization. It is something new I have learnt today. Because I really get anxious and nervous I have to go through everything, all the possible questions and best possible answers prior to an interview. I even have a book
“Get to the point and do not babble”! Thanks for emphasizing on the body language. Love the synopsis at the end. Thanks for all you are doing for the community.
This video emphasized the need to be just as prepared for the non-technical portion of your interview. A friend of mine interviewed for a position this evening and said she wasn't well prepared for the strength/weakness question. Thanks Mike!
Thank you Harshal. Fifty percent is related to competency and the remaining 50 percent is soft skills related. When it comes to the best jobs it becomes much more about soft skills.
This is a great reminder! Although I knew most of these tips, I never really thought of the fact that as a rule, we should listen more than we speak since that is how we are going to get the information we will need to help the companies we work with. I think that applies to any profession to be honest, but to look at it in the specific lens of a cloud architect was an ‘aha’ sort of moment for me.
Moalyne, Listen more then we speak applies to all careers. But it’s more critical in medicne and architecture careers that require access to excellent information
Thanks Mike for this video; especially for the last tip which is about the question a candidate can ask the hiring manager. That last part seems to knock candidates off too often.
I did some of those mistakes especially mistake no.2, and realized almost instantly that it wasn't a satisfying answer. I would definitely practice more to get my answers as concise as possible. Thank you Mike!
But if the body language is not good and you have to stop talking, what do you do instead? Is it okay to ask the hiring team some questions? and if yes, examples of questions to ask, please.

What to not ask a hiring manager ? Where else do we see these tips 😊 Thanks Mike again
The part I like most is the "Don't babble". Get straight to the point. Use fewer words to articulate the points.
But if the body language is not good and you have to stop talking, what do you do instead? Is it okay to ask the hiring team some questions? and if yes, examples of questions to ask, please.
Great question. Change the topic. Or go to another point.
Thanks Mike for this video; especially for the last tip which is about the question a candidate can ask the hiring manager. That last part seems to knock candidates off too often.
Agbor. Thank you. That’s why we made this video.
