What is your biggest frustration or question when it comes to job interviews?

[Yash-_-]

Welcome to the day before interview preparation zone..


goodluck u will get ur job!

[healthyvoicetips]

My biggest question is how to build confidence when going for an interview. Obviously, the more you do them, the more confident you become. But how can you be more confident even for your first interview. Great video. Loved it!

[ethanzebediah]

I had to comb back through my Youtube history to find this video to Thank You Professor Heather Austin! I watched your videos the night and morning before a series of my most recent round of virtual interviews, and I had never felt more prepared for a series of interviews in my early career. These steps by step instructions on how to answer interview questions with actual suggestions of what to say and what to consider when listening to questions being asked were so incredibly helpful and opened up new pathways in my brain (lol) for how to prepare for interviews. Also, I guess I should mention -- I GOT THE JOB! I'll definitely be referring friends and colleagues to your resources. Thanks so much. Sincerely, A new subscriber

The most difficult answer to me is when they ask me what are your weakness, I don’t really like to talk about I think that People can think that I’m a weak guy

[KellyRoach]

So helpful for people looking to rock their next interview - these are great ways to show you're an ideal candidate! Something I always look for are examples that help show me what type of person they are and if they're willing to learn and put the work in
