    Apologies to your ears if the audio quality was bad on your headphones!
    Fresh graduate with no work experience? You can still answer this question well.: customise it to your time in university/projects/internships that you think the hiring manager would be interested in. Good luck!

    "Hi, my name is Anne. It so nice to meet you. Thank you for taking the time to see me in person. I really appreciate it. So, as you can see from my resume. I’ve been working at company X for the last 10 years and for the last 3 years I’ve been a senior financial analyst. And I’m basically responsible for analyzing financial data and making recommendations to higher levels of management. And I’m currently working on a very interesting project on how big data has implications on not only the finance department, but the organization as a whole. So I was really excited to read about the job opening for group financial controller. And the thing is I’m currently looking for ways in which I can grow in my career and I’m really passionate about the work I do and I’m always looking for new responsibilities too add on and learn new things constantly and in fact the project that I’m working on that I mentioned right now. I’m leading a team of five people and I’ve learnt an enormous amount by working so closely with them. So that’s it, that’s about me."

    Hello, I just wanna thank you, I used your "answer template" for my interview and got selected by just answering 1 question, "tell me about yourself".
    Today, I've completed more than 10 months in this job, my FIRST job. Thank You ❤️
    Gonna use this again for my next one. Wish me luck 😊

    Sonal, I started binge watching your videos about two weeks ago as I was in the throes of interviewing and needed to get back into the swing of things since I last went through the (unpleasant, to say the least) process! Thanks to the tips you shared, I got a job offer yesterday within an hour after interviewing. I think it was because I treated the interview as a tennis match and engaged with the interviewer and got her talking about herself AND when the interviewer asked me at the end if I had any questions, I took the opportunity to offer up some of my strengths and to tell her what made me stand out from the other applicants. She thanked me for being assertive. And believe me, that was no easy feat as I loathe talking myself up. :-) Please keep up the good work and keep the videos coming. They are so amazingly helpful in so many ways!

    After watching your video I realised that in all my previous interviews I blundered by telling them my weak points and reasons for leaving jobs in my introduction. And this time I revamped my script and followed all the steps and guess what I caught the fish. My bait worked they asked exactly the same thing what I wanted them to ask and all thanks to you. You are an amazing mentor and keep doing the good work 👍

    I want to add that it depends on the stage of interview and the role you are applying for. I'm often involved with interviewing candidates to join our team once they have been through the initial HR screening. When I ask this question I wish more would share their hobbies and interests outside of work. We are trying to determine which of multiple candidates at a similar level we most want to work with on a daily basis for the foreseeable future. This question provides an opportunity to share hidden skills you might not have had a chance to explore professionally as well as help determine cultural fit.

    • @SuperChargeYourself
      @SuperChargeYourself  3 года назад +10

      Thanks for sharing Don.
      You raise a good point and there’s some mirroring involved. If the interviewer is wants to know what you do outside of work, then of course by all means, share the interesting bits.
      This advice is more for a general/first stage interview where they don’t ask about outside work interests.

  • @rastovac87
    @rastovac87 3 года назад +7

    Thank you for the video and tips. Shouldn't the answer to the question "Why am I here?" rather focus on our motivation for this particular position/company and not be generalized by answers like "I'm looking for a new position where I can grow", "I'm passionate (passion disappears over time) about work", "I'm always looking for new tasks" (this could also look like we're always looking for a new job).... That is, how many candidates say the same thing and we want to stand out from the crowd.

    • @SuperChargeYourself
      @SuperChargeYourself  3 года назад +8

      Hi Dejan,
      Good point. I think there are two different things.
      One is ‘tell me about yourself’. In a 90 second intro, one needs brace oneself between explaining and piquing interest. By talking about why you’re there and what interested you about the role, you help the interviewer connect the dots.
      The other is ‘why should we hire you’, and that’s a separate topic, for which incidentally I have a separate video!
      Hope this helps!

I had a HR round today and was going through your videos to answer the difficult (and not so difficult) questions in a better way. Would like to share my experience from the HR round. It started with Introduction where the HR started the intro with his personal background first. He also shared his personal interest and then moved unto his professional side. I was then asked to brief about my background starting with my personal side including my interests/hobbies first. It then went ahead with discussing the projects and role that I have worked on. The next 2 questions that he asked was - Why are you switching ? What are your expectations from your next organisation ? He did not ask about my salary expectations, and did not give me an opportunity to justify my demand. Is this normal ?

    Starting at 5:55 please do not blink, or make hand gestures, itch or look away, it only indicated nervousness. Maintain good eye contact, speak confidently starting with your educational background, professional affiliations, your work experience specifically focused on job description keywords. Later - Your achievements, and why you are a good fit/candidate, and what skills will you bring onboard. Also, very important study the organization beforehand, the type of product/service they are offering, your relevant experience, and how you will contribute to the success.
