hello there my name is Ronnie and I'm
here to teach you today about job
interview skills the dreaded job
interview skills and the questions they
may be hopefully are going to ask you
and more importantly some really cool
answers and when people interview you
they're looking for specific answers
they're looking for people who fit into
categories they're looking for people
who meet their standards or
qualifications the hard thing is we
don't know what they want so do your
research see about the company find out
what the company does how crazy always
make sure you know what the company does
what you're getting into if you're
working in a restaurants research about
the restaurant and they have
qualifications that are important to
work in a restaurant if you want a job
in Canada in Toronto at least in a
restaurant you have to have a
certificate called smart serve and smart
serve is a government license basically
that you pay money to the government of
course and they give you a certificate
that qualifies you to be a server it's
basically if someone is really drunk
what to do so research what you need to
get the job make sure that you have the
education or extra spits bills nuts
pills extra skills that you need so that
they love your answer so this is
probably the first question that I am
asked on job interviews they say hello
Ronnie how are you fine thank you how
are you huh so tell me about yourself
ah
let's see I like to drink beer not a
good answer I like sleeping late not a
good answer
I love loud music no no so that answers
good answers always talk about your
positive personality traits I am really
friendly I love people I'm outgoing I
can speak to anyone I'm good at solving
problems
the police haven't caught me yet bad
answer the next thing that you have to
do in this question is you highlight
your skills what you are good at at your
old job or if you are really good at
working with computers if you're good at
art something that somehow relates to
the job if you want to work again in the
restaurant you tell them that you're
really interested in food and wine and
they go all oh oh you're where y'all
find good food one done love food love
wine if you're working in a computer if
you want a job at a computer company
talk about computers so you love
computers they are your life make sure
that what you say relates somehow to the
position you're going for if you go to a
restaurant don't tell them you like
computers doesn't matter ok the next
thing basically when they ask you this
question it's your time to shine you
tell them how fantastic you are go to
great lengths to smile always be
positive don't tell them I'm fantastic
tell them why you're fantastic have you
won awards have people gave given you
and titles or said you've done a great
job today sir and next one this question
I don't even know why people ask you but
they do why should we hire you know I
need a job I want to work at your lovely
company and make lots of money don't say
that they love words like I am a team
player I don't think they even know what
that means
are you a volleyball player no when they
hear words like team player they think
oh oh you work well with other people I
can tell you what to do but they don't
tell you that so I'm a team player if
it's
a sales job telling you are assertive
tell them you get the job done you do it
well you do it the best of anyone all so
again highlight your skills your
qualifications your education if you are
applying for a job at a radio station
and you studied radio in college tell
them that it's already written in front
of them on your resume say it again you
need something to say also your work
history if you worked in a company that
was similar to the company that you're
applying for tell them about how great
you were at that company and how much
you'd like to further your career in the
field I hope that these two questions
which are trick questions help you to
understand what they want all right so
another question that they might ask you
that trick question is this one this is
a doozy
if they ask you this one have you ever
had a confrontation that's your last job
if they ask you the first one you can
get off easily and say no no I haven't
lie lying is fine but if they ask you
this one which is more direct tell me
because they know you have about a
confrontation that's your last job oh um
well I really hate this person and they
really made me angry and I peed in their
coffee is not a good answer
once again embellishment or lying is
fine you can M highlight the positive
and negative things about the
confrontation maybe you can say that an
employee and you were working on a
project and you didn't feel that the
other person was giving a hundred
percent
as you were you became frustrated or
irritated with the co-worker and you
felt that he wasn't or she wasn't doing
a good job they will then ask you how
did you resolve it how did you resolve
the situation always say things like
well in the end it was fine we talked
about it we communicated you can also
say I spoke to my boss about it and we
had a meeting and everything was fine
always make sure that the ends of the
confrontation is worked out even if it
wasn't always make sure that whatever
happens there was nothing bad in the end
lying there's a fine line between lying
and getting the job another one that's
very very difficult and tricky is this
one they will ask you well alright if
you've gotten this far
what are your positive and negative
traits always talk about your positive
traits five of these one negative trait
is perfect never tell them all of the
negative things about you always focus
on the positive tell them that you
really enjoy being around other people
you love working eight hours a day
without a break sarcasm doesn't work in
a job interview you are a hard worker
you're a dedicated worker negative
traits this is difficult they want you
to tell them something bad about you
they're dying they're dekha tell us
something evil tell something bad tell
them something bad about you make its
little say something that you are
obsessed with research you go home at
night and you like to research about the
other company
you love knowledge it keeps you awake at
night but make sure that what you tell
them is only a little bit negative do
not tell them every bad thing about you
all of a sudden you're here and your job
goes down and they say okay thank you
see you later we'll call you
not a good ending to a job interview
because they're not going to call you so
always remember when they throw this
question at you many positive traits one
negative trait not a bad negative trait
tell them you don't wash behind your
ears every day job interview skills
