Brilliant and that was smooth by the way, You asked for a glass of water so the time you get your glass of water you can think for so long for a best answer.
@@NoThisIsWeber I mean, logically your boss will get how socially clever you are and you may stand a chance, if he doesn’t, he doesn’t even have the brains.
Can I really say this at my interview 😂 sometimes my brain has 0 control over what I say, oh god I need to delete this line from my head before I screw up my interview
"Final question, why shouldn't we hire you?" "Because by the time you do, i would have already received a business invitation to a better company" * *mic drop*
"Why shouldn't we hire you?" "I can't think of a single reason off the top of my head, and if you give me enough time to think of one, you're going to hear some real smooth gimmicky bullshit."
@@navyseal1689 they don’t care about the answer, they care about the Self reflexion of somebody. What the reasoning is and if the person is trying to fix their bad habits.
"Do you want a glass of water?" "Yes" "Why should we hire you?" "A video in the internet told me that if I said yes to water, I'm more likely to get the job."
I literally just say “that’s a good question let me think about it.” I’ve actually learned that people respect someone who takes their time to answer a question. Makes you seem more genuine. Edit: there seems to be a lot of worry in the replies about if this would come across as unprepared. Every interviewer is different and industries are different but I work in HR and have seen and conducted many interviews. Interviewers just want to know who you are. They want to make sure your values, skills, and experience align with the company and job. They want to feel confident that you will do the job well. If you take a few seconds to respond to a question I doubt that this will have a significant impact one way or another on the selection process. Just be confident. Don’t try to fit a mold. If you don’t have the answer, be honest. It’s a good idea to have answers to questions they are likely to ask and be ready with clear examples of your success in areas that matter to the job. But as long as you can communicate your strengths and skills effectively, you should be ok provided you are the best candidate.
Just because it's genuine doesn't mean it's a good response. If it's a simple question it's not going to look good on your part if you have to ask for time to think about it, followed by awkward silence while you think of a response. That's like admitting that you're lazy is a good response just because it's a genuine answer because you really are lazy.
@@leeroymlg4692 Silence during an interview isn’t a bad thing. For high level roles it’ll be fairly normal, on both ends. I’ve been in front of a panel of 4 high level managers, with a pen and notepad, writing down their questions; then jotting points of my answer down. A ton of silence, followed by a well thought out, high level answer. That definitely gives gives you an advantage, over stumbling, or rambling on with an answer immediately after it’s asked. Lots of talking but no real answer, showing under real world pressure; you’ll make a rash decision to appease, rather than making the well thought out, tough decision for success.
it’s okay to take time to think about your answers in an interview, it’s actually encouraged by the interviewers!! if you’re answering right off your nose it seems fake and like you’re all put together when you’re not really like that. it’s more authentic to take time to think about your answers because it shows that you’re genuine but also that you’re not answering on a whim just to avoid silence
Also drinking the water is an indication you might be nervous with a dry throat. Shows less confidence. Then again it's not really a big deal either way. Just take the water or don't
"this is a robbery give me all ur money" "That was smooth btw" "What do u mean?" "If u hold a gun at someone and Rob them they r more likely to do what u tell them" "Ur right but how'd u know?" "I follow josh otusanya *he he he*
Any interviewer will allow you an appropriate amount of time to think before answering a question, it’s not a race lol. You don’t have to hide thoughtfulness.
Just take a moment to think and then answer. It is completely natural n is okay to do so. For me personally, this works best rather than taking a sip of water, cuz I will be thinking about sipping rather than the answer
I learned this in a school I went to and they brought in recruiters from companies to look at our work and give us feedback on interviews. One thing I noticed (during the interview) and the interviewer gave me great feedback was I would fidget with the glass, specifically when a tougher question was asked, and it came off as nervousness. It was actually great advice that I could look at and never did during an actual interview. I always loved that advice
Actually said that once. Nothink happened btw. People take job interviews way to serious. I'm never nervous because I know at some point I'll become one of the best if not THE BEST. So it's on them to miss this opotunity. P. S. If you ever end up in an interview you don't care abaut to much have some fun. Like if you lissened what they offering and you have a better option or just don't like it in general. Few things I tryed myself: 1. Noticed no one actually reads CV's so I made up some unlikly places I have worked in. Wasn't even noticed even if my work experience (by what I said) comes to a 22 years. You might think it's nothing but i was 25yo back then. 2. Try to apply for a possiotion you don't want to get. Let's say Mc Donallds and do your best to leave a negative impression. 3. Start asking some shady question. But mix them in between normal ones. Like: And what would my responsibilities be? I see.. And who is watching cameras in here? Ohh cool! How's the micro-climate in here? Good to hear! Do you have any more open possitions? Maybe you need a security guard because I know someone... But just do this only if you'r not planing to actually work there
Another thing: whenever they ask you about your flaws or to say bad things about yourself, always compliment the answer with how you deal with it. Like "i hold myself to a high standard. The way i work around this...". These questions are so you give a reason to eliminate yourself from the process.
@@agressivemonkey3938 wow that was smooth by the way. You tried to make a good excuse so you are not embarassed. How do i know? I follow josh otusanya!
Josh: "Hey Jim. Let's start the interview, so first question." (Everything in the video happens) "Jim: aight u just got a tiktok follow, what's your tiktok btw?"
