2:04 finally wrap up the future explain why
2:06 you're excited about this opportunity
2:09 and how it aligns with your career goals
2:11 let's have an example So currently I am
2:13 working as a marketing coordinator at
2:16 get hired company where I manage our
2:18 social media campaigns and coordinate
2:21 events recently I led a successful
2:23 product launch that increased our online
2:25 engagement by
2:28 40% before my current role I work at
2:31 Blues agency as a market assistant and
2:33 there I gained valuable experience in
2:35 content creation and analytics and I
2:37 spearheaded a campaign that resulted in
2:41 a 25% growth in our client base I'm
2:43 really excited about this opportunity at
2:45 123 Corporation because I've always
2:47 admired your Innovative approach to
2:49 marketing I'm eager to bring my
2:51 background in digital strategy to your
2:53 team and contribute to your continued
2:56 success remember keep your answers
2:59 concise ideally between 1 to 2 minutes
3:01 and tayor response to the job
3:03 description and Company highlighting the
3:05 most relevant parts of your background
3:07 keep practicing until it's perfect until
3:10 you sound natural but remember avoid
3:12 sounding to rehearsed next question
3:15 we're tackling can be a bit tricky what
3:18 are your strengths and weaknesses this
3:19 question is a favorite among
3:21 interviewers because it reveals a lot
3:24 about your self-awareness and honesty so
3:25 let's break down how to answer it
3:27 effectively first start with your
3:30 strengths this is your chance to to
3:31 highlight your skills and qualities that
3:34 make you the perfect fit for this job
3:36 but it is not just about listing all
3:38 your strengths you have to back them up
3:41 with examples don't give them or don't
3:44 give away 10 strengths instead focus
3:46 with two to three strengths that are
3:47 relevant to the rule that you are
3:49 applying for then provide specific
3:51 examples on how you've demonstrated this
3:53 strengths in your previous and current
3:56 rules now let's move on to weaknesses
3:58 this part can be challenging but it's
4:00 important to show that your s aware and
4:01 you're actively working on improving
4:04 yourself choose a witness that is
4:07 genuine of course and one that is not a
4:09 deal breaker to the role so for example
4:11 if you are applying for a Content writer
4:13 and you say that I'm not that good in
4:15 writing in English then that's
4:17 definitely a no no okay so choose
4:20 something that's okay and then explain
4:21 the methods that you are taking in order
4:25 to address it so one of my key strengths
4:27 is my ability to manage multiple
4:29 projects simultaneously in my current
4:32 role at get hired company I successfully
4:34 LED three major projects at once all
4:36 while maintaining high quality work and
4:38 meeting tight deadlines my
4:40 organizational skills and attention to
4:42 detail really helped me keep everything
4:46 on track and I'm also particularly
4:48 strong in data analysis in my previous
4:51 job I developed a new reporting system
4:52 that streamlined our data collection
4:55 process and improved our decision-making
4:56 efficiency by
5:00 20% when it comes to weakness sometimes
5:02 I can be too detail oriented which can
5:04 slow me down but I've been learning to
5:07 balance my attention to detail with the
5:09 need to meet deadlines by setting strict
5:12 time limits for each task this approach
5:14 has helped me maintain high standards
5:16 without sacrificing efficiency remember
5:18 the key to answering this question is
5:21 honesty and self-improvement for your
5:22 strengths choose qualities that are
5:24 relevant to the job description and
5:27 provide specific examples and then for
5:28 your weakness choose something that
5:31 you're actively working on and then
5:33 explain the steps that you're taking in
5:35 order to improve it and now a question
5:37 that usually catches people off guard
5:39 describe a challenging situation at work
5:41 and how you handled it this question is
5:43 assigned to assess your problem solving
5:45 skills and your resilience and how you
5:48 handle stress or pressure so let's talk
5:50 about how to craft a strong response for
5:52 this question the best way to structure
5:54 the answer to this question is by using
5:57 the star method star is in situation
6:00 task action and results this framework
6:02 will help you tell a clear and concise
6:04 story that will highlight your skills
6:07 and accomplishments first situation set
6:09 the stage by describing the context of
6:11 the challenge be very specific as to
6:13 what was happening and why it was a
6:17 challenge second task explain what was
6:19 your responsibility in that situation
6:22 what was expected of you third action
6:24 detail the actions you took to address
6:26 the challenge focus on the steps that
6:28 you personally took and why you chose
6:31 those actions finally results share the
6:33 outcome of your actions highlight the
6:35 positive results and what you've learned
6:38 from the experience a few months ago our
6:40 company Was preparing for a major
6:42 product launch when we discovered that a
6:45 key supplier had back out at the last
6:47 minute this meant that we were at risk
6:50 of missing our launch deadline as a
6:52 project manager I had to ensure that the
6:54 launch proceeded as planned finding a
6:56 new supplier quickly without
6:59 compromising quality or increasing cost
7:01 so I convened an emergency team meeting
7:04 to brainstorm Alternatives identify
7:07 potential new suppliers and I directly
7:09 negotiated terms I work with the
7:10 logistic teams to streamline the
7:13 onboarding process for the new supplier
7:15 and I provided daily updates to Senior
7:17 Management in the end we secured a new
7:20 supplier within a week and the launch
7:23 proceeded on schedule resulting in a 15%
7:25 sales increase that quarter this
7:27 experience highlighted the importance of
7:29 quick decision making and effective Ive
7:32 Communication in crisis situations using
7:34 the star method helps you provide a
7:36 structured and compelling answer that
7:38 showcases your problem solving skills
7:40 and how you handle challenging
7:43 situations at work and remember to keep
7:45 your story concise focus on your
7:47 contributions and highlight the positive
7:50 outcomes next question is what type of
7:53 work environment do you thrive in when
7:54 interviewers ask these questions they
7:57 want to see if your preferred workstyle
7:59 matches their company culture so to
8:00 answer answer this question effectively
8:03 you need to do a bit of homework and
8:06 self-reflection step one research the
8:08 company culture research read and
8:10 understand first look at the company
8:13 website then read employee review on
8:15 different websites like glass door and
8:17 of course don't forget to pay attention
8:20 on how they describe their workplace in
8:23 the job listing step two reflect on your
8:25 past experiences think about your
8:28 previous work experiences and identify
8:30 the kind of work environment where you
8:32 feel the most happy and productive and
8:35 then think about the key elements that
8:37 contributed to your success step three
8:39 show flexibility while it's important to
8:41 highlight your preferred work
8:43 environment you also need to show that
8:44 you're adoptable and you're open to
8:46 different workstyle environment step

9:27 to success and I'm excited to contribute
9:30 my skills to your team regardless of the
9:32 specific work environment the key to

9:39 and how your preferred workstyle aligns
9:41 with it by doing so you'll demonstrate
9:43 that you're the perfect fit for the team
9:45 and the company culture and the last
