I had an Interview, not one, but three, and you motivated me all through. I really want to appreciate you, and yes, three interviews later, I got the job, not just any job, my dream job!!!! Thank you! I am praying for everyone who has an upcoming interview, be very confident, do your part and let God do the rest.
Exactly, thank you
Congrats congrats
I receive this testimony too in Jesus name, Amen 🙏

Is it safe to mention you do volunteer work with your church that goes out to various non-profits to make a difference by cleaning, painting, food banks? It is different every month but they are a company reaching out to make sure they make healthcare accessible to those in underserved areas. I don't know if it is considered taboo to mention church volunteer work even if you don't go into "preaching".
Wow very good advices! I will follow your tips! Goodluck to me on Friday May 7 🙏

This is great. But the interviewers ought to know that there are many good workers who always mean well and work well for the company that employ them but are not ELOQUENT IN SPEECH and there are many people that are eloquent but not good worker, but lazy, not friendly, , non put their best in the job.. Interviewers should always have a rethink by looking at others qualities too, and not the most eloquent who might not be truthful.. Thanks.
Thank you for saying that. I fully agree 👍🏾
Agreed. I always get nervous when being interviewed but I'm a hard worker with good work ethics.
You're very correct.
Agree, however sadly those biases are real and not many can overlook them. I wanted to hire a man with a speech impediment but the interviewing team minus one person disagree because they felt he would not be able to share information with in meetings well. Sadly he was already member of our team and had so much to offer. He's still there but has not applied for anything else which is sad. It's why I take issue with so called DEI initiatives. Pray it changes one day.
Thank you for this. I find practical interviews more helpful.
So watched this last night, for an interview this morning. Got hired on the spot
"Do your best and let God do the rest." Love this! Thank you for making such a positive difference, Brigette! :) Wishing you all the best!!
Hello Brigette, I had a huge interview last week, I had studied, practiced my stories following your guidelines for weeks, couple of days before the interview I watched THIS video. I wrote down "tell me about yourself" of what I wanted to say using the past, present and future. And on the day of the interview I pulled up this video and listened to 3:43 part "believe in yourself" to get into a positive mindset. Once I got in the interview, I believed that I had the right to be on that table and took my power back! I have decades of leadership experience and skills, I knew that it has led me to this moment! I GOT THE JOB!!!!! so thank you for your guidance and advice.
Anyone out there, prepare for the interview because it really will help you get the job and listen to these videos, it does help, if anything you will feel you did a great job during the interview.
Hey, congrats! 💪🏾👏🏽
Thank you @Brigette Hyacinth, I watched this video 2 weeks back before my interview, it really helped me.Glad to say I got the job
I am now seeing this. Congrats Omogolo. I am so happy for you!
Congratulations 🎉 sis
“Do your best and let God do the rest” is the most encouraging word. While I was in my last term of BSN program, I was stressing with thesis papers and exams. When I heard that phrase from my church pastor, it definitely encouraged me to do the best. Thank you also for your videos. Very helpful tool and good resource for job interviews.
I hope you feel better and more confident to answer this question now. You've got this! 𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗼 like and 𝘀𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼𝘀. T𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂. 🥰🥰🥰
This question is the hardest on my list seconded by "Why should we hire you?"
You can say cuz I have experience and I can add the value to benefit your company then give them any examples from your last jobs
My Name is Pius Kimani from Naivasha, Kenya in East Africa. I would like to thank you very much for your teaching/coaching, I landed on a very good job as a Manager as a result of following your teachings. I am really happy. There are not many opportunities in Kenya and the competition is fierce but your ideas and teaching made me the candidate of choice out of very many equally or more qualified candidates.
I will keep following you on tips on how to now do a great job and get to keep the job as I was unemployed for 8 months and it wasn't nice out there.
Thank you very much for all the great work you are doing.
So true. In the past I always thought I wasn’t good enough but its not that. I didn’t believe in myself. Im good, but lack confidence.
Love listening to this
Your RUclips helped me for my interviews. I was stop countless times because "Tell us about yourself" question was already answering score questions the panel had prepared. In short I had 2 exceptional job offers to choose from and I made my decision. 1 August 2023 I started on my dream job❤️
Thank you Brigette Hyacinth for your continued support and your time invested on us to excel in our interviews and life in general. You are a Mentor of Note. "Men and Women lie but results don't" with this quote I want to say indeed you are what you say you are and that go without an doubt woman of Valor.

I have an interview with UNICEF tomorrow, wish me luck
Olanrewaju. Do your best and let God do the rest. Please let me know how it goes. I am so excited for you. 😊
Brigette Hyacinth The interview was great, I got asked this particular “tell me about yourself” question and I was able to give a clear and concise answer with the help of your video. The other questions were competency based and I did great, I’ll be waiting for a feedback from the organisation now, I’ll return to this page with good news soon. Thank you very much
How did it go? I'm looking forward to working for the United Nations myself. All the best!
All the best.
I wish you the best.
I feel like the Holy Sprit used you to communicate with me. God is so good and you are supper wonderful. first time watching and I love everything about you.
Thank you Hyacinth, I'm learning so much. I have been Job hunting 2yrs and still haven't had an interview. I am keeping the faith that I will get a job very soon.
You're more than a HR Manager, but a counselor. I like it that you were very explicit and encouraging. Most times, applicants usually get demoralized after manny attempts and begin to give up. Thank you .
She’s never been an HR Manager
@@pricelessprincess001she is a HR manager she says it in the video
When I ask this question in an interview, I always try to be clear where I want the answer to go and don't leave it open as a trick question... Early in my career I was asked this question in 2 different interviews over a couple days... The first time I answered the question about my skills and career directions, the interviewer (VP of Product Development) quickly reacted that he didn't ask about my skillsets he wanted to know my life passions and hobbies... The 2nd time I answered the question more about my interest and passions and the interviewer reacted that he didn't care about that info he only wanted to know about career goals.
I will name my daughter after you because you are an inspirational mother.
Awww. Thanks Ali. You are too nice.
THANK YOU🙏🏼 (LinkedIn brought me here). “Unemployment for long time can affect your mental health & self confidence” really hit home...however this video has made me feel so much better & encouragement!
@Brigette Hyacinth I got a shock when an administrator interviewed me last after the regional,and Director ....he said people of my "caliber" are needed here.I almost fell out of my chair!
Thank -you for all your encouragement and advice.God bless you.
(P.s.I got the job)
Wow Alta. This is such great news. I am so happy for you. Keep soaring! 😊
Congrats😊
@Alta 👍Congratulations! Believe in yourself. Only you know your sacrifices and how hard you've worked to reach your goals. It's within you! No one handed it to you.
Continue to work on yourself transformation. It is the best gift you can give yourself, and others. May you continue to excel in your future endeavors! Best regards.
I have been through job interviews in the past, but not alot. But last year I was kind of exhausted from two interviews I had where I didn't get the job. One of them I didn't even want. That's why I was glad that a week later, I've found my dream job, without even going to an interview 😄 Praise God 👏🏾
Me too I was finding for long time this week I did my interview it was very is they hired me God is good all the time
Brigette, you are the best presenter i have seen ever. After hearing you i feel optimistic and moving ahead. I left my job last Oct'2019, still struggling but quiet very sure would be their soon.
I have an interview in 8 days and I am so happy I got to listen to you prior. This video is literally all I ever needed. Thank you so much. I love your energy and enthusiasm :). God bless you.
Thank you Brigette! This is my answered prayer as I was praying to the Lord that i'm unsure how to carry myself out in this question and then I came across this video.. As a person that is switching industries, its so hard to get a job. Believing in Jesus.
It's so refreshing as a believer to hear ppl mentioning the Almighty, for He is the ultimate provider. In this commercial and secular society we forget that everything go back to the creator who has blessed us so much.
So encouraging, it's all about God in every aspect of our lives without him weren't anything just piece of clay...
I was directed here from linkedin. I would like to affirm that the tips shared here are exactly spot on and got me my current job seamlessly.
I like that you mentioned God, lot of positive vibe and confidence. Thank you.
Hello Brigette, I came across this video yesterday as I was preparing for an interview scheduled for today. The interview ended just a few minutes ago and I used the tips recommended and personalized it. It really set the tone for the entire interview as almost every question came back to 'oh you already alluded to that when you told me about yourself....the first interview went well and my finger's crossed for the second round. Thanks for your super insight and for sharing. More power to your elbow!!
you have an amazing personality. You are a natural born speaker. thank you
I'm here coz I have an interview tomorrow wish me luck guys!
Hope it went well
Hi Eve, How did it go?
@@BrigetteHyacinth it was great I got the job
Congratulations! ❤
I follow you and Linked In, and as such, I signed up for your RUclips channel. Thank you so much for your interview tips. I interviewed for a job recently. I followed your advice, and I got notified today that I was hired. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos to help us free of cost. May God continue to bless and keep you.
Omg, the best video I've seen on this question. I have always struggled answering this question. Interviewing is nerve-wrecking. I am rediscovering my pace and remembering a time when my confidence carried me through. This topic is the number one area I needed direction on. Appreciate all you do for people! *relief*
I followed this advise to prepare my " tell me about your self question" and I got the job .Thank you so much
This is my first oversea interview from Nigeria as a registered nurse....I don't know what brought me here....wish me success. Thanks so much for these tips
I feel better after watching this video, I didn't know what to say during the interview I didn't made it for many interviews, but after seeing this I'm 100% sure that I will definitely make it 🙏
Hi Brigette, I used the tips on this video and got 2 job offers. Thank you so much for the wisdom and confidence you instill in us. Am so glad you started the RUclips channel, it has a different impact from reading your posts on LinkedIn. God bless you richly.
I love the last part"Do your best and let God do the rest".
Am so happy Bridgette that i landed on this,am having an interview in two days with an Airline and this is what i needed am doing my best and letting God do the best,
Thank you so much Bridgette. I had an interview today. I followed your advice and I aced the interview. I got the job. May God bless you for your wonderful work
Thanks Brigette! You gave me a whole new perspective on "tell me about yourself." I always assumed the interviewer has read my resume but now I know differently. Thank you!
This is higher value at our finger tips
Bridget, you are wonderful
Best Regards
''Sometimes, they already have someone to hire in mind'', ''If you don't get the job, just know it's not meant for you, do your best and let God do the rest''
You've truly lifted my spirit tonight. sometimes, the echo of ''unfortunately'' makes me lose balance. M so glad I came across you tonight, God bless you.
My dream job should better be ready because here comes the new me!
Thank you so much!! I always have a difficult time answering this question!! You have truly blessed me with your channel! May God continue to bless you as you walk in your purpose!!
These tips were great, well-informed video!
Personally, I think the question is a waste of time. People can be manipulative and articulate all the convincing things & still not meet the expectations. The interviewer should be skilled enough to pick up on who's being genuine and not simply using tactics. Yes, the question can show the interviewee's communication skills, but people can do well at interviews and not fit the needs of the company.
This lady may be a Trinidadian; if not, she sounds like one. God bless; this is great, informative, and well put together.
True Bridgette, sometimes HR already know who they want for the position. "Do your best and let God do the rest"!
I agree - answers need to be succinct, cohesive, and relatable. Great points, Brigette!
Thank you Brigette, apart from gaining insight on how to handle the interview question, as always, you boosted my morale.
I watched this vídeo 2 months ago, just before some job interviews. These tips helped me sooo much. And guess what, I got two job offers. Incredible! Thank you for your amazing tips.
followed u from LinkedIn to RUclips. been unemployed doesn't define who you are, thank u for the encouragement just wat i needed to hear at this my lowest point in life.
Past, Present and Future approache is a great one.
linkedin follower now youtube follower ...congrats
Nice one
I am 7 years recovered from drug addiction. I tell prospective employees this. My children saved my life and continue to be my motivation. I think since are put off by this but it made me who I am today and is the reason I can face any adversity and overcome!
I feel energised, inspired, reinvigorated and refreshed to say the least! As an Senior HR Professional who's currently job hunting, this relevant piece of tutorial just goes to further sharpen me for that sport on interview in future. Thanks #BrigetteTashaHyacinth
My confidence just got boosted. Very insightful points. Well done Bridgette.
I am grateful for wonderful tips! I have an interview in 2 days, and I already feel empowered and ready to claim my job. You are a breath of fresh air.
Can't believe I am just finding out about this channel; it just popped-up! YAAY!🙂. Am on your LinkedIn for over 5 years. I bought your book and leave it in our breakroom and introduced them to my managers and supervisors.
Keep going Sister. Your advice has served me well👑Brigette.👑
Thank you Brigette for your practical advice, kindness and positivity 😊
Thank you Brigette! I have been following you for some time now and love all your content. But the videos bring so much of your personality into the content and makes it really fun and engaging! Thank you for inspiring me
What brought me here was your thumbnail- What made me stay is your accent. Thank you for the tips & wish me luck.✨
Today is my interview I haven’t had a interview in years. It’s through virtual. This is new to me. I.
I hate that question because I don't feel natural when answering it. I have to sugar coat it to impress the prospective employer. For example I don't work well under pressure. That is my truth but it'll be odd if I said that to the interviewer. I wish interviewers can just let us be.
Thank you so much Brigette. This has helped with my interview preparation!!!! This is one of my dreaded questions in interviews but am now comfortable with it!!!! Looking forward to next week! 💪
This is the GREATEST wisdom I have watched and listened to today. God bless you Ms Hyacinth. You are an HR professional sent from heaven. You are kind enough to share this great wisdom!
I will admit this is one of the best videos on preparing for an interview.
THANK YOU! This was so inspiring, all you need is the right voice to speak into your life and changes everything. My perspective instantly shifted. I am a new subbie and will watch all your videos....your delivery attracted me.
How refreshing! Was preparing for an exam and so needed to come to RUclips and voilá I see you! This is great apart from having you as a LinkedIn connection! More resources to learn from you! Bravo!
Thank you dear I will believe in myself on this day God give me more confidence to take my job
Yes, this helped me out so much! Thank you, Brigitte. Thank God for you. This question is always one that stumps me in interviews. I never know what to say or how to answer it. Now I do thanks to you. Please do more interview question videos!
Thank you so much @Brigette Hyacinth.
I came across this video when i was preparing for my first promotion interview for a Senior Executive role.
However, I followed through every step as advised by you in your video and i must confess having merged this with my acquired skills and experiences in my current role putting God first and letting God take the absolute control upon continuous practice.... My interviewer’s were amazed and couldn’t hide it as my level of confidence was commended!
Conclusively, I return all thanks to God Almighty and to you Brigette. 👍
Amen
i have an interview on the 13th ive already watched more then 10 dif videos and out of all of them yours has been the best ! since it is the only one that talks about the main requirement to be successful in an interview, that is self-confidence, none of the ones I have seen give you that inspiring personal motivation, although they all mention acting with confidence, none of them remind us our true value thankyou so much blessings.
Brigette's advice is always so insightful. She really gets it and is such a wise discerner.
Thank you Brigette for your teachings and inspirations. You put confidence into someone like me who is still looking for a job. Keep it up and be blessed. Charles
Love the phase : Do your best and let GOD do the rest. Thanks for all these tips. I'm looking for a job and all you said makes me confident about the future interview
.😊 have a blessed day
Hi Brigette, thank you for sharing this video. I am currently looking for an online job right now, and I expect to have an interview soon. This one definitely helped me to boost my self-confidence and encourage me to be confident enough during an interview.
Thank you and God bless
DO YOUR BEST and let GOD to the rest… best advice ever! I’ll remember this in my next interview!
Thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you Bridgette for these tips for interviewing. I haven't interviewed in a number of years so this will assist me on what I need to work on .
Continue sharing your knowledge,we need it thanks Brigette.
I am feeling much more confident going for my interview after lessing to you
Thankful with LinkedIn for pull me to your AWESOME video in the correct moment that I needed. I was preparing myself to an interview, so now I will be working on it to do it as perfect as you say.
Not only advice, but your positive mindset and reinforcement made me know that I will make it more than great. You're simply the best! 🌺💐🌻
Hi Brigette! For last many years I am following up your post on LinkedIn and really want to appreciate your motivation which really helped in difficult time of my career. Thanks once again.

All the best👍👍
@Carol Ebong I hope you got the job
@@ALC0A021 No I didn't.
They mailed me back saying they needed a single and not a married lady.
This came after 3 interview stages, a presentation that I had sleepless nights for, and salary negotiation.
Sadly, I realized that my brain was picked.
I'm done with interviews, I've decided to focus my energy into making my businesses a success
@@ALC0A021 thanks for asking.
I have an interview on Tuesday nextweek, I'm now confident and going to use your sample 🙏🙏I pray I get the job
God bless you Brigette. Wish I was here few days ago. Lesson learnt. Thanks for reawakening the giant in me once again. I'm forever grateful for this gesture.
I had a virtual interview a few months ago and even though there wasn't an actual person interviewing me I froze up. LinkedIn brought me here and your video is so informative and clear. Thank you very much, I feel so much more confident that i can nail this.
Thank you Bridgette! Your post is really appreciated. I’ve been a long time follower on LinkedIn I’m super excited for your shared knowledge on this platform too. God bless you ❤️
Incredible advice! Thank you, Brigette. My best method is to remember that I'm interviewing them. Do I want to work for that company? They have to persuade me. Works every time when it's a job I want.
I've watch your videos before my interview. Its helps me a lot and transform my way of thinking in job hunting and answering interview questions. Now, I have succesfully land a job, nailing the interview session following your guidance.thank you so much.i have been unemployed for 1 years.now, im back in track in my field and further develop my career.thank you.
I'm a self employed business owner. I wish this video was available for me thirty years ago. This is very powerful; love it.
Hi Bridgette, I just wanna say that you're truly an amazing person. You had gone through so many setbacks before you could get to where you are today and I am so proud of you. You really wish to see people succeed and therefore you started this channel spreading tips on how to ace interviews and secure jobs. There aren't many channels that are as candour and inspiring as yours and on behalf of anyone who has benefitted, I would like to express my gratitude. Please don't ever stop making these videos and motivating people who just had a door slammed in their face after an interview. I really felt that "believe in yourself". I hope to see you make more positive impacts on people's lives. God bless you Bridgette..
It's 2023 ,now and am currently waiting my turn for an interview,I decided to do a bit more research when I came across this video,I was already loosing confidence cos u can imagine what it means when I say wait my turn but with what av learnt so far I believe am going to get this job and even if I may not get this one (no doubt) it has prepared me for the next.
I'm more mesmerized by Bridget's accent than by anything she says!!
Most appreciated Brigette, insightful sound advise, applying it. Indeed, I do my best and I let God do the rest.
I Knew you were on LinkedIn Brigette but didn't realise that you had a RUclips channel. After watching this video I can see why you have so many subscribers. I'm sure you be getting a lot more soon.
Love when you say the company lucky to have you, Yes, because I made you millions per year 😊
Never talk about your personal business in an interview. Keep it to your professional background and experience. Great info!
Thank you for giving of yourself to help others
Thank you ma and for the tips and making me not to feel less of myself because of rejection. I'd love you to make a video on how to answer questions about your salary expectations.
I'm preparing for my job interview and I so needed this advise -interview tip. Reset your mind!
I had an interview, then came across your video. Trust me, I got the job. I've been answering it the wrong way.
