I utilized this video to prepare for my first Financial Analyst position. The hiring manager was very impressed with my interview. Received an offer for the position within 24 hours. Would recommend this channel 100%.

Just wanted to inform everyone I got my first internship as a Financial Analyst because of this guy. I initially applied for Project Manager but they were impressed by my interview and recommended me to a different position. I am now watching this because I have an interview for a full time position. Thank you sir.

Just today (8th Nov 2021) morning, I had one interview and my eleven (11) years old daughter yesterday asked me to go through this video as preparation for the interview. One key point I remembered from this video was where it says that a Finance Analyst should ensure source data is reliable and /or accurate - and when I mentioned this point during the interview, the hiring manager seemed impressed! Can't thank you enough here as I now have good chance of securing the job (pending some background checks)!

Thank you so much Mr Richard🙏
Your video helped me to understand what l was doing wrongly during my interviews, now I am more confident with my responses.

[s_hami]

Thank you so much for this. One of the best and channels and videos I have come across. Much appreciated.

Great video. Ive slowly improved my interview skills with these videos you have made. Before practice, I would make my interview answers more submissive and in a third person tone. But now my answers are more affirmative and has a lot of key words such as 'I believe I made the correct decision, ' instead of 'I felt/think.' I then follow this up with reiterating my strong affirmative set of beliefs I have and which I followed, which gives the interviewer a subtle tone that I am consistent with my phiosphy in a workplace. This comment may seem bone dry, but key words make a huge difference in interviews, and be affirmative = it helps show you are confident.

[rimpaloz]

Very clear and to the point answers, really very well prepared ..this helped me a lot..thanks.

[michaelmuliadi]

This is quite helpful for me to prepare for an interview. One thing in mind is that for strengths and weaknesses question should reflect on a honest, organic answer from the interviewee themselves. Anyone can detect artificiality in the answer. Overpromising but with a risk of underdelivering.

[youremadrightnow]

This was really helpful and eased me of my stresses, thanks alot.
