Interview Preparation | Best Practices (from former CEO):
Welcome to another educational HR video on how to pass a job interview. I share five tips and five best practices. Topics I cover in Interview Preparation | Best Practices (from former CEO) include the importance of appearances, and looking like THE candidate. Speak in their terms. You need to use the same terminology / lingo as the interviewers. avoiding miscommunication, anticipating and answering traditional interview questions, as well as behavioural interview questions, preparing success stories, learning there beforehand. Research the company. Learn the function and background of the interviewers. Do mock interviews, to rehearse and get feedback. This can help you interview very well.

Thank you for being here and reading this, and have yourself an amazing day!

"You call them the same thing THEY call them". This is gold. Makes total sense but I've never heard anybody give this advice before. Great channel.

You are a very talented speaker. I am not even preparing for interviews and I enjoy watching your videos!

Bill I just want to say, my recruiter seemed very happy with how thorough I answered all the the questions after watching your videos and it landed me the job at the end of the interview!
Thank you very much for this content, it helped my nerves and confidence for the interview 100%!

I watched all the vids from this series just before my interview and landed the job. Thanks for all you do 👍

I am so happy that I find your channel. I am feeling so better prepared for my interview.

[fancycanuck]

More than helpful. I’m at a higher level of preparation for my upcoming interview now. Thanks Bill 👍🏼

I only watched 2 videos and then subscribed immediately! Man, you are literally giving us everything we need. Thank you so much

Please make a video for fresh graduates/no experience too

[sheilashegos]

I like your sense of humor. I have always seen it as a sign of strength and confidence when used the right way. I loved your videos and how basic they were. I have an interview today and am not too nervous. I will be myself and act as professional. If it was meant to be it was meant to be.

You're the FIRST person EVER who has convinced me to do an interview rehearsal

[razorback]

Thank you for doing these videos! Most of them coincide with what I learned in Business Communications, so its an amazing refresh for new graduates that have spent later years finishing their major, and removed from the lesson.

[Chuka_lupin]

I got the job using your interview prep video sir! Your methods really work and I'm grateful. May God bless you more!

Can we have some videos on how to prepare for zoom interviews...that is becoming a norm now days and some tips on that would be great....

I belong to several men's fashion group where interview dress attire had been hotly debated.

In today's casual attire world, if one were to apply for a job where, say, the men wear Henleys and Khaki pants, what would you do? There are a few choices one could make: wear formal business attire (suit with dress shirt), mirror the Henley's and khaki pants, or dress one level up (Henley, khaki with a sport coat OR dress shirt and dress pants with no coat). My thought is that if you wear formal business attire, you risk outshining the manager, but if you appear casual (without the level up that I mentioned), you risk not looking like a serious candidate even though that's how everyone in the offices dresses

What would your expectation be as hiring manager?

(I think it goes without saying that if you cannot find out the dress culture of the company, to err on the side of caution by wearing formal business attire)

Hi! I would like to thank you for your videos. I’ve been on the hunt for a new job and passed a couple interviews. The last one landed on a job offer. I followed some of your tips. Especially regarding the questions to ask at the end of the interviews. I think this closed the deal.
So thank you very much.

[lonshrek]

Awesome! I'm currently preparing for an interview. Thanks for the help!

[pedrojfa]

You are, by far, the best in your area. I would like to see and buy a book written by you.

[inkbythebarrelandpaperbyth]

Your advice on cover letters would be a great video topic.
