Hi, I hope you see this! I had been trying for 11 months to get a job, interview after interview and not landing anything was heartbreaking! Luckily I came across your content and developed my toolbox and prepped on the Par method (star always felt redundant to me and long winded). Well I’m happy to report I landed a job and started onboarding today! Thank you so much for your content it literally just made the biggest impact on my life. I went from making $52k with TWO jobs to over $70k with ONE job landing a job in a Saas company! I can’t thank you enough!
That is almost exactly my situation (In the final stages right now)! Congratulations!
PAR/CAR Method + Story Toolbox = I got the job! 😎
WOOOOO WAY TO GO!
In an alternate universe, I wonder what would happen if the interviewers were as straightforward as possible--without any subliminal attempts to find out who you "really" are--AND the interviewees were just totally honest, focusing more on truly answering the question rather than how their answer comes across.
Crazy, I know.
Wow, so true. I actually just had a TEAMS interview last week and found the Interviewer with a glazed over look a few times as I was trying to tell those STAR stories. I did catch it and shortened the stories closer to what you describe as the CAR method. Honestly I feel most interviewers can assess your capabilities pretty quickly without the rambling.😉
I am so happy to say that watching your videos helped me land my first ever internship with a multi-national company! I had two interviews, the first was with a college recruiter and the second was with a panel of 3 people from the department I applied for. Assuming I did well on the panel, I was supposed to have a third one-on-one interview with a hiring manager afterwards, but today I got a call from the senior recruiter who told me that the last panel liked me so much that they decided to immediately send me an offer! Working for this company is going to be the first step towards my career, and I cannot thank you enough for letting me take advantage of the opportunity.
I saw this info from you from an older video and used it and I actually got an offer from not just one, but two jobs. I was interviewing for two different positions, and I got two offers at the end of the interview. It was the first time I got to actually choose a job. Thank you!
I love this advice! I always thought STAR was too lengthy but that’s what EVERYONE preached. CAR method will be my new method. Thanks for simplifying and helping us, Madeline!
Yesterday in an interview with Ritz Carlton they required me to use the STAR formula - it was the mst formal interview. They were rigid. Your wisdom helped me get thru this painful interview. They were very black and white - thank you for your help !!! Brilliant advice 💪🌟🌟🌟🌟
The PAR method is a game changer. Between that and using your story tool box I got a GS-12 government position! Thank you so much for the content.
This woman is smart, she is right when you tell a long story,you tend to forget on what you say and you could rumble. Which I know it could happen to me
Oh man, this is so much easier. I tripped up in a final interview and lost a really good opportunity because I confused myself trying to remember the STAR method. I always seem to forget what the stupid letters stand for and end up lost in the weeds 🤦🏾♀️ 😂
CAR is way more logical. Thanks for the tip!
🎉😊 congratulations 🎉👏
I binged watched a lot of your videos and I got the job! Plus getting over $4 more! Thank you ❤😊
Hi, Madeline!!
I don't know if you'll see this, but your videos have helped me so much. Since last year, I have landed interviews only for the employers to ghost me, or I would receive one of those generated emails saying I didn't make it to the interview process. I just landed a job offer today thanks to all of your tips and advice! Thank you so so much!
I think the CAR method is great, but I also like to add a little spice by using CARL. It's almost the same as CAR, but after you talk about the result, you add 1-2 sentences about what you learned from that challenge. I'm in HR and can confirm we love hearing that people are able to take lessons from various experiences to the future...and beyond!!! (is that Star Wars or Star Trek?)
Close its toy story
I totally stand by this method! I always think of it like a case study. I good case study shares the challenge, solution, and result. I also find it helpful to look at job opportunities this way. What’s the company’s core challenge? What solution are they looking for from you? And what results will your work yield, or in other words, what is the benefit of what you will provide for this company? Knowing this helps me understand the big picture when I’m formulating my answers for interview questions because I have a clear idea of what I bring to the table. That’s why I love this method. It builds up your confidence when you can clearly state how you can help an organization move their mission forward.
Came at the perfect time, I have a 3rd interview tomorrow and I’m expecting a lot of behavior related questions. Thank you!
Rooting for you! Who is it with? (Hiring manager, coworker, etc?)
It is supposed to be a “meet the team” interview with other managers I would be working with.
I got the job! Thank you for all your videos!
@@Jaki812 congrats
I actually like this three-part model. It basically combines the S and T portions of the STAR method. (Although STAR sounds cooler than CAR or PAR, haha).
*Short, sharp, and shiny* love it
Hi Madeline!!! I wanted to thank you for guiding me through the interview process! I am set to graduate university this week and became a job shopper. I've gone 3/3 with tailoring my resume to each position, developing my story tool box, and practicing tons of behavioral interview questions. Needless to say, SPIKING the "tell me about yourself" pitch and asking questions specific to each interviewer! You helped me land the best job in the market for an entry level chemist & I am so excited and grateful! They needed braces to close the gap! 😂
Thank you again for all your amazing content. I'm primed to salsa into negotiations leaving no dollar behind!
I have always used STP's. They seem to make the most sense for me in every situation. STP (Situation, Target, Proposal).
Star question makes my normally functioning brain turn into a mushy banana
Woah. Loved this CAR formula. It seems simple and more impactful!
I have an interview coming up I’m taking notes and preparing now! Thank you so much!
STAR is millennial or gen-whatever garbage. My generation and many decades thereafter judged a candidate on their skills and experience .. not some scripted exercise whilst smiling thru their teeth telling fables and falsehoods.
This video supports the fact that hiring is a shiteshow, with interviewers expecting candidates to be perfect and scripted. I equate this to speed dating where EVERYONE LIES just to get into bed.
It's a shame that the burden is placed on the candidate who is already drowning in the massive pool of job searchers (eg: job posted 35 min ago has 435 applicants per indeed). The people posting the jobs and/or doing the hiring don't appear to answer to any scrutiny. The majority of job reqs contain grammatical errors, spelling typos, repeated bullets (in some cases, three times the exact same requirement spread out across 20 bullets). It's a hot mess but no one's holding them accountable.
Another example was a Zoom interview with 5 people asking tech questions that they were reading from the internet, stumbling over the tech terms and unable to clarify due to self-professed lack of understanding! "We merely ask the questions and write down your answers then fwd that to the hiring mgr." WTF?!
Another example - the job req is a proverbial laundry list, spanning 4 pages .. but MY resume can not be a hair over 1-2 pages or it won't be considered?!
Job screenings are wreckless while candidates are looked at under a microscope. It's ludicrous, at best.
The system is irrevocably broken and corporations don't give a shite.

This is great practical advice that will definitely make an impact in the interview process.
This is amazing..i have an interview coming next week..face to face and a video interview due this by this Sunday..thank you so much for your emails and videos
You are missing a crucial piece: V. V stands for value. It's not enough to tell the story; you have to be explicit about how that result translates into value for the new employer. I call it CARV.
Can you give an example of this?
Vital teammate
this is so true... no matter how hard I try, I never remember what the STAR method means in an interview, and honestly, it's confusing. CAR is much better
Yes yes!
Shorter acronym but the length of the answer is still the same
It doesn’t make the answer shorter
But thanks for the shorter acronym
well according to AMAZON its the only way they will accept talking in interviews. I personally think the STAR method is WACK and USELESS! You can be qualified for the job but if you don't nail that STAR interview to a T to their liking. NO JOB FOR YOU!!
I heard STAR described as
Situation/Task Action Result,
where Situation and tTsk is one thing, either Situation or Task.
You are the best! 💗
Wooo first comment. Thanks for all your great content!
😄😄😄
If it weren’t for its cool name, the STAR method probably wouldn’t have gone anywhere
Hi, I'm struggling with a good response to, "tell me about a time you had to make a hard decision." I couldn't find this question in any of your videos. Maybe you can include it in a future video? Love the channel, thank you!
I wish that I had known this today bc that's what the interviews used..
Massive fan! You've helped me so much with my career. YOu don't do many videos about recruiters though. Are you a fan? I don't apply for jobs. Headhunters slide into my linkedin DM's and I work with them. Would love to know some pointers about this world!
What a magnetic personality! Being an excellent communicator pays dividends. When is her new book coming out?
Hi Madeline! Really love your content and your content has been helping me prep for my interviews!
Regarding your P-A-R/C-A-R method to answering behavioural questions/story-telling, I would add L for the learning to make it P-A-R-L/C-A-R-L.
I have had feedback from interviewers telling me they loved that I learned from the situations.
What do you think?
I feel like if you are adding a L then you might as well use the STAR method
@@Loreyna32 it will be the same length, but the star method doesn't show what you learned.
Not related to the content but your skin is flawless!!!!!!
Brilliant
Hi! The digital course doesn’t have a payment option.
Kok gw setuju si😅😅😅, jawaban sih bikin interviwer mikir dulu, dont so perfect and shines
what do you say if there were multiple actions? I have a clinical psychology interview coming up and they'll ask questions about my previous therapy work, sometimes theres multiple challenges and actions
Love you Mandeline from Vietnam 🥰🥰🥰
Do employers recognize Udemy certificates or does it give any edge to have them on CV or linkedin? I am planning to do some trainings to get certificate so there are online trainings from Udemy and coursera etc, and then maybe some courses I can do at my work (Amazon) and they are also self learning and you get certificate. I thought about things like PMP, scrum master, six sigma and so on. Any suggestions?
Nice video, but I wouldn't ditch S.T.A.R. For sure, the 3-act structure is a Hollywood staple. But Shakespeare followed a 5-act structure in all of his plays (actually, we're not sure this was originally the case, but that's how all his plays have been presented for centuries). And S.T.A.R. really needn't be any slower than C.A.R. The T bridges between the S and the A, but can easily be fused with either. But it can also be useful to distinguish between the task and action because it allows you to show how much initiative you used in the execution of the task. All stories told in interviews should be snappy. That goes without saying. So it's not really case of replacing S.T.A.R. with C.A.R. The former lends itself to talking about tasks you've been allocated. The latter is a framework for facing a more general range of challenges - e.g. dealing with a problem colleague, an inadequate budget etc. They both have their place. The first is a response to 'Tell me about a time when...' The second to 'Tell me how you dealt with...'.
She says she is team Star Wars and then Spock shows up less then five minutes later. 🤷♂️
Ohh man everyone with their star, car, Carl and so on. So many job gurus love to preach about their methods.
Do you have sample entry level human resources behavioral questions
Should you change your location on LinkedIn to the city or country you would like to work in? Even though you don’t live there yet?
I've created so many stories I get too nervous and sometimes my stories don't always fit what they are asking? Anyone have any tips? 😊
Hi made milliniar
I’m trying to watch some of your other videos but it says “pay to watch “ but there is no link to pay to watch these videos .
Ah got it. I am one of the first creators on RUclips to host a course on the platform so the user experience isn't perfect yet. Here is the course: ruclips.net/p/PL30MQiePH_cOMZROELw_Qylf0pZ4SB8Tt
Yes, I am trying to pay as well but nothing is working.
Wait, but doesn't a "Challenge" require you to give a little background info as to why the challenge was there in the first place? This background info is called the Situation....So, I don't see how removing a single step guarantees you are able to always shorten your response and not put your listener to sleep
💯
Face look diff
Christ... If you think there are too many steps with the STAR method you are certainly not suitable for the job !
