This is a great technique. I used this yesterday and it was the first time I saw someone take notes. It got me a second interview

[hollyhenry]

Haven’t had to do a job interview in 10 years and the world has changed! Thank you for this, I feel like I’m ready! ❤😊

You know what Andy I've learned allot from you! Been following you for more than 2 years. Just got promoted to Senior Portfolio manager managing 50 Mil in USD dedicated AUM. I don't know how to thank you but I know most are even better off than me are just silent. Just got transferred from Philippines to Australia because of your stuff and thanks again.

I’m preparing for an interview. I totally revamped what I was going to say in my introduction. While I already submitted an introduction last week as part of a larger presentation, I’ll start with the verbiage consistent with your model and pull in the text from the slide in the “as you can see fro my resume section”. It will be a MUCH more impactful and relatable opening. Thank you

[ziolove]

Beyond your brilliant insights and advice, your energy makes my day. Thank you, Andrew.

This misses the stay at home moms who are now re entering the job force... Hi I am Ive spent the last 15 years juggling 6 schedules, managing the education of 4 kids and the household.

[kristincook]

I enjoy your videos and they have transformed how I approach interviews. I was telling my daughter about them, she interviews student workers and she said "please send me the link, we need better interview questions, we Google interview questions 5 minutes before an interview." Your videos are helping so many people.

[patrickaryee]

Hey Andy (Andrew) that's a great delivery... I like your style of delivery!

[shwetasrikanth]

Excellent! The example of the summary section can be used very effectively for the “tell me about yourself” interview question too.
