10
Let's get straight into the presentation.
11
So to help you pass your job interview, I will cover three things during this tutorial.
12
Number one, I will explain why the interviewer is asking you the question, what are your career goals?
13
Because if you understand why the interviewer is asking you the question, you can give them the perfect answer.
14
Number two, I will then give you several examples of career goals you
15
could use in your response to this difficult interview question before finally,
16
number three, giving you an outstanding response that is guaranteed to impress the hiring manager.
17
To begin with, why is the interviewer asking you the question, what are your career goals?
18
Well, they are asking you this tough interview question, because if you are the type of person who already has their career mapped out,
19
it shows you are someone who is organised,
20
someone who is self-motivated, and someone who is likely to be a consistently high achiever in the role.
21
So let me now give you several examples of career goals you can use in your answer to the difficult interview question, what are your career goals?
22
Number one is to say that one of your career goals is to gain new skills.
23
This is a good one.
24
Now this is good
25
because it tells the interviewer you are keen to learn from other people in the company
26
and that you want to become a competent member of their organisation.
27
Number two is to say that one of your career goals is to become an expert in your area of specialism.
28
Now this is another good one
29
because it tells the interviewer you are someone who doesn't want to simply do the bare minimum.
30
You want to be the go-to person in your role and ultimately help their business to succeed.
31
Number three is to say that one of your career goals is
32
that you want to eventually gain advancement to a more senior level within their company.
33
You want to get promoted.
34
Now this is a great career goal to have
35
because it shows you are ambitious and that you want to stay working for their company for a long period of time.
36
And that's going to be attractive to any hiring manager.
37
Number four is to say one of your career goals is to increase your professional network.
38
Now this is a great career goal to have
39
because to be successful in any job you have to have
40
a strong network of people around you who you can rely on for support.
41
Number five is to say
42
that one of your career goals is to undertake training development courses and gain qualifications on the job.
43
Now a candidate who told me during their interview
44
that they were hungry to learn by way of undertaking training development courses is going to get my attention.
45
Any candidate who is prepared to learn on the job is likely to be more productive and maintain competence in their role.
46
And number six before I give you
47
that example scripted answer to the question what are your career goals is to say
48
that one of your career goals is to improve your sales figures or productivity numbers.
49
Now this is a great career goal to have because it benefits the employer.
50
If you are able to improve your sales figures it can only mean one thing for the employer, they gain more revenue.
51
So let me now give you the perfect scripted answer to that difficult interview question, what are your career goals?
52
Here we go.
53
I have several career goals that I want to achieve.
54
The first career goal is to gain employment with your company to get up to speed quickly in the role
55
and to become a productive and trustworthy employee.
56
My second career goal is that I want to learn and develop in the position.
57
I plan to undertake and complete internal training development courses that will allow me to be a consistent high performer.
58
Now, another one of my career goals is that I want to eventually gain promotion within your company.
59
I want to build a long-term career with your company, and I believe I can eventually progress to a higher level.
60
Finally, another one of my career goals is that I want to expand my professional network.
61
I believe you are only as good in your career as the people around you
62
and I plan to build a strong and helpful network
63
That enables me to achieve the objectives set by my employer

How to Get the Accent Right
The speaker’s clear, conversational tone is easy to mimic for shadowing site practice. Focus on: - Stress in "self-motivated": Emphasize "mo" (SEL-f MO-ti-vat-ed) to sound confident. - Intonation in questions: The phrase "what are your career goals?" rises slightly at the end—copy this to sound natural. - Pacing in lists: When listing goals, pause briefly after each point (e.g., "Number one… Number two…") to match the speaker’s rhythm.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
