Today, I'm gonna interview you for a job here at Rachel's English.

This is for you to practice a job interview.

You don't know the exact questions you'll be asked in an interview,

but you can absolutely prepare by answering some questions that are likely to come up.

Actually, practicing is imperative.

You will do better when you practice.

I'm Rachel, I have a background in opera singing,

and I've been teaching the American accent to non-native speakers for over 20 years.

Scan this QR code

or go to rachelsenglish.com slash free to get my free course The Top 3 Ways to Master the American Accent.

It will change the way you think about speaking American English.

Today I'll ask you 7 questions,

and I'll give you some hints on how to answer them.

A great way to win the interview and land the job you want is to practice ahead of time and record yourself.

Review your video.

See what can be better, practice and record again.

To incentivize your practice, you can even send your video answers to me.

I may put them in a future video to further teach interviewing for a job in American English.

Send me your job interview answers in a video to help at rachelsenglish.com.

Let me know your native language and your general field of work.

This is going to be fun.

I cannot wait to see your videos.

I love this idea.

Let's talk about the job you're interviewing for today.

The pretend job.

I'm going to give you three different positions.

Choose one and form your answers around the job that you're interviewing for.

Here are the jobs.

First, admin assistant.

This would be someone who handles my emails,

customer support, also does some administrative tasks like creating video transcripts,

maybe a little bit of project management to get my new videos and lessons published.

Teacher, you are an accent specialist who loves helping non-native speakers of English speak with more confidence.

And the third position, video editor.

I use a lot of video editors in my work and I could use some more help.

Okay, here's your first question.

What makes you interested in working for Rachel's English?

You absolutely want to make sure you're saying something specific here.

Something that wouldn't apply to any other job.

For example, let's say you're applying for a job at McDonald's.

There are so many fast food restaurants just like McDonald's.

Don't say you're applying because you love fast food.

That's way too general.

You want to say something like,

I'm applying for this job because I've always thought McDonald's has the best hamburgers.

Or, when I was little,

my aunt took me to McDonald's every week for a Happy Meal

and I still have some of the best toys that I got in those Happy Meals.

In other words, be specific to be memorable and make sure your answer reflects that you know something about the company.

So I'm gonna ask you again,

pause this video, open up your camera app,

and answer this interview question.

What makes you interested in working for Rachel's English?

Can you talk about a job you've had in the past where your responsibilities were similar?

The same advice applies to this question as it will to every single question you answer.

Be as specific as you can.

This is why it's a great idea to record your answers and send them to me.

I won't be giving you personalized feedback,

but I may use it as an example in a video

if I think there's a great amount of detail or not enough detail.

I've done a lot of job interviews.

I know how a strong candidate answers this and a weaker one.

Let's make sure that you are the strongest candidate at your next job interview.

So I'm going to ask again,

be specific about your responsibilities and give examples.

Can you talk about a job you've had in the past where your responsibilities were similar?

In this position, you'll be working with a team.

Can you talk to me about how you work with the team and how you handle deadlines? deadlines?

This one is kind of tricky because I'm asking two questions at once.

How you work with a team and how you handle deadlines.

Make sure you always answer the complete question an employer isn't going to want to have to ask you again

if there's a part that you forgot to answer.

You could even shape your answer in a way to remind yourself to answer all parts.

You could say, to answer the first part of your question,

and then put in your answer.

And then you could say,

and regarding deadlines, or as far as deadlines are concerned,

remember always to be specific and give examples.

Here's the question again.

In this position, you'll be working with a team.

Can you talk to me about how you work with a team and how you handle deadlines.

Whoa, I forgot one thing.

I was working with a doctor once who was going to have a remote job interview.

He'd never had a remote interview before.

And part of what he needed to do was to send ahead a small video presentation as part of his application.

Seeing as making videos is a huge part of my work,

he asked me to review his application,

and there was one major problem with it.

Because he was looking at a camera,

he forgot that he needed to make a connection with the person who would be watching the video.

How do you do that?

Remember to smile.

Your body language in a job interview,

whether it's remote or not,

is going to be important.

So sit up straight, have relaxed shoulders, and smile.

Okay, next question.

How do you think your boss or co-workers would describe you?

Now if this is your very first job ever,

100

then you have no co-workers.

101

You have no boss.

102

So you can describe how teachers,

103

friends, and family may describe you.

104

With this question, I'm trying to get a sense of your personality and how people relate to you.

105

Don't just list adjectives.

106

Give a specific reason why, a specific story.

107

For example, if your boss would describe you as highly dedicated and a team player,

108

then say this.

109

My boss would describe me as highly dedicated and a team player

110

because one time I worked all night to correct someone else's mistake on an important presentation.

111

Say that, not just dedicated or team player be ready to explain at least three adjectives about yourself.

112

Okay, here's the question again.

113

How do you think your boss or coworkers would describe you?

114

What's your least favorite thing about your job right now?

115

An important tip for this question is, don't complain.

116

Whether it's a lazy coworker or a crappy boss,

117

I wouldn't focus on individuals,

118

but more on work tasks and the work environment.

119

For example, if you can't stand your boss and you don't think she takes you seriously,

120

instead, talk about how you don't see room for growth in your current position,

121

and that you're really motivated to keep growing and keep learning new skills.

122

So here's the question again, you answer it.

123

What's your least favorite thing about your job right now?

124

What are you passionate about?

125

Again, this is the interviewer wanting to know more about you as a person.

126

Your answer doesn't have to be about work.

127

And it's probably better if it's not about work.

128

If it does relate to your work,

129

give an example that isn't directly about work.

130

For example, I'm very passionate about the voice and how we use it,

131

which relates to accent reduction and teaching English, my job.

132

But the root of it is when I first started taking voice lessons in high school,

133

and I actually ended up studying that all the way through graduate school,

134

earning a Master of Music in Opera Performance.

135

So I would lean into that part of the passion.

136

That's not directly about work.

137

But you can also talk about something completely different,

138

a hobby that has nothing to do with work.

139

But make sure you do say something.

140

People who can't come up with something they're passionate about in a job interview seem kind of boring

141

and disconnected from the conversation.

142

Okay, here's the question again.

143

Give me your best answer.

144

What are you passionate about?

145

This position is work from home.

146

Can you tell me about your setup,

147

equipment, internet reliability, and your availability?

148

This won't apply to every position,

149

but all of my hiring is for remote workers.

150

When I hire a teacher,

151

I want to know that the videos that they make for our students are going to be of an acceptable quality.

152

When I'm hiring an admin assistant,

153

I need to know that their internet

154

and equipment is reliable enough for me to get in touch with them when I need to.

155

So since you're applying for a pretend job at Rachel's English,

156

give me the rundown of your situation.

157

This position is work from home.

158

Can you tell me about your setup,

159

equipment, internet reliability, and your availability?

160

I can't stress enough how important it is to prepare for a job interview by going over potential questions.

161

And it's even more important if English isn't your native language and the interview is going to be in English.

162

I have several different video series on applying for a job and interviewing for a job in American English,

163

be sure to check them out if you're in the market for a new job.

164

And don't forget, practice and record your answers to these interview questions,

165

even just one or two.

166

It doesn't have to be all seven.

167

Send them to me at help at rachelsenglish.com.

168

I won't be giving personal feedback to each individual on your job interview question answers,

169

but I am interested in pulling them together into a video to teach interview techniques.

170

I may use your answer as an example of a standout perfect answer,

171

or I may use your example as an answer that needs a little bit of work.

172

And I'll tell you exactly what to do to improve your answer to make the best impact in your job interview.

173

So make sure you only send in a video if you're okay with it showing up on the internet.

174

Don't forget to head over to rachelsenglish.com slash free

175

to get my free course the top three ways to master the American accent.

176

The techniques there are a great way to improve your accent for that upcoming job interview.
