    How to answer behavioral questions when you have zero experience? ๐Ÿ˜ญ



  2. John Doe on May 21, 2023 at 4:19 am

    He hits the teamwork question out of the park. I’m a pretty good behavioral interviewer myself but my answers tend to be on the longer side, which I’ve been criticized for. I, for example, would have attempted to explain the other 6 ideas, which wasn’t necessary. I was also looking for the two things he hit spot on – one was eye contact and the other was explaining the result of you/your team’s actions (often forgotten). Sales up x% over the next however many quarters or whatever and he doesn’t "credit hog." When making eye contact, don’t forget to make it with everybody in equal amounts. This is a detail that is easy to lose in the moment when you’re on the hot seat. The only question I have is do his answers sound too rehearsed? I like to pause to show I’m having to think before I answer.

    Iโ€™ve watched several of your videos and have to say this is the 1st that I feel would be most challenging for me. The answers are quite lengthy. When youโ€™re a great storyteller it should come easy, but not for me. I get so nervous during interviews. My voice starts to shake while speaking. I need a method to develop short concise answers.

    Richard !!!!! I got a job offer today ! All thanks to your advices you are incredible โ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธ thank you thank you !



  5. fahdi mohamed on May 21, 2023 at 4:22 am

    Love your videos. Are there other behavioural questions or these are the main ones? I have an interview coming up and I havenโ€™t had an interview in like 6 years. Iโ€™m anxious as donโ€™t want to fail.



  6. varsha singam on May 21, 2023 at 4:22 am

    All 3 examples are part of my selection criteria. Thank you



  9. Anร  on May 21, 2023 at 4:31 am

    Thank you so much as this is an area that I struggle with but I’m learning to gain more confidence when I’m faced with these type of behavioural questions. At times even me being a Team Leader of Front of House concierge I can tend to forget all the challengers and certain tasks I would of actually done in a pressured situation and how I would of handled it etc.

    So after hearing your responses to your answers mine was nothing like this when faced with these type of questions.
    As I don’t know but I tend to freeze or so in those moments and just want to answer the question even if I wasn’t answering the question. But I know in order for me to improve I need to be in the know and have examples ready that I can ponder on, as I’m the type that can’t make up anything on the spot it always needs to be something that I have experienced personally.

    But I’m encouraged after watching your video that for me at times I can’t think on the spot like that so I got to be better prepared and write down the questions as thats what works better for me then
    freestyling .

    God Bless Ana

    Hello Richard! Thank you so much for your videos, they are extremelly helpful. I am truly greateful and happy! I was able to ace my recent interview and I got my dream job! Your knowledge was part of this process! Once again, thanks for the outstanding job you do



  25. ellovieey on May 21, 2023 at 4:47 am

    Iโ€™m so happy to see all these positive comments from people this video helped, and there were definitely some useful techniques I teased out just from observing your body language, diction, structure of response, etc. If I may provide some constructive criticism though (and disclaimer: this is wholly subjective): I found the constant mention of working overtime a bit inauthentic. It felt like you were going for the hard sell of โ€˜my job is my life and Iโ€™ll sacrifice anything to get it doneโ€™. I donโ€™t feel this mentality really flies in todayโ€™s workforce, where we are starting to understand how nurturing a positive work/ life balance and enforcing boundaries leads to success and efficiency. Although acknowledge this view does vary depending on what society, culture and industry youโ€™re working in.



  26. Dipan Patel on May 21, 2023 at 4:48 am

    very noble initiative from you – Richard! This is a great wealth of information for self improvers



  27. Fiona Liu on May 21, 2023 at 4:51 am

    I watched your videos the night before my interview, prepared my version of answers. I got the position that is not easy to get (an internal transfer) as there are many other competitors. The HR recruiter said my interview went so well and she can tell I was well prepared despite the fact they only gave me <24hr notice for the interview! Thank you! These tips worked extremely well!



  28. Bartek Sekulski on May 21, 2023 at 4:52 am

    I really appreciate your help, I just got my job. You answers and video helped me so much.

    Thank you!!!

  30. Jeana Jacob on May 21, 2023 at 4:56 am

    Hi Richard, I got the link to your YouTube video from LinkedIn. The answers to this video help me formulate my own answers to behavioural questions that were asked for my interview as a clinical trial coordinator. I am pleased to inform you that I was given the job offer on the same day even though they had mentioned that they would get back to me in a weeksโ€™ time. Your video helped me face my interview with confidence.
