Pratica di Shadowing: Practice speaking with me - Job Interview in English - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

Hi, please tell me about yourself.

Didn't you read my resume?

Okay, let's talk about your weaknesses.

I can't think of any right now.

Makes sense.

Why should we hire you?

I don't know.

You need someone, I need money.

Isn't that obvious?

I don't know who asks these questions.

Oh my God.

What did you like the least about your previous position?

Oh my God, I hated the job, the company, people who work there.

They just didn't appreciate how great I am.

And why have you decided to apply for this position?

I was looking through job ads and I saw this one.

It was like, let's apply.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to meet with me.

I'm grateful for the chance to discuss what I can bring to this company.

Hi, it's nice to meet you.

Please tell me about yourself.

I began my career in retail management, but I've always been drawn to marketing.

And by implementing a couple of new marketing strategies in my previous company, I was able to increase revenue by 39%.

Sounds great.

Can you tell me about your weaknesses?

I sometimes find it hard to delegate responsibility

and sometimes it feels like i have to do everything by myself in order to come to the best result

but i'm working on this by setting up more meetings with the teams to make sure

that everyone is on track and to make sure

that i answer all of the questions

and set the right mood for everyone involved in the project

out of all candidates why should we hire you thank you

for asking this question uh i love what your company is doing

and i really like your previous marketing campaign

but i think you're missing out on targeted ads on facebook

and instagram because i really see this is where your audience is

and a couple of your competitors have tried this technique

and i see it's working for them because they're doubling down on their budgets

so i was really thinking what if we try to do the same

but from a different angle that is more consistent with your branding strategy anyways

if you hire me i would love to test a couple of ideas

that I think will be able to help increase the revenue.

Hey guys, welcome to Lingva Marina.

Today we're gonna practice words and phrases that you might hear or use during a job interview.

I've been in the US for over six years and one of my main tasks is to hire a team.

So I'm gonna talk to you from an employer perspective for things that I'm looking in the candidates to hire, for things that are red flags for me.

So if you're interested in getting a job in an English-speaking country, whether it's remote or not, please watch this video up to the very end.

I think it's going to be very useful.

And I'm also going to mention ways that you can get proper education to get a job in an English-speaking company.

But before we start, please don't forget to subscribe.

Starting the interview, we only have a couple seconds to make the first impression.

And normally these days, most of the first interviews take place on Zoom or Google Meets or whatever the company is using.

And if it's an offline job, then you might have more interviews in the office.

And it also depends on the company.

For example, I'm a YouTuber.

I'm running a small company compared to like Google Airbnb.

And we only have an interview with some of my teammates, then a task task, and then an interview with me.

That's it.

Companies like Google might have eight interviews with eight different people.

So it's very important that you make the right impression.

And you can start with one of these phrases.

Pleased to meet you.

I really appreciate being considered for this role.

Thank you for taking the time to meet me

so the thing is most of the interviews would still start with small talk

which we love which we practiced on this channel

and you might be asked questions like how are you what's going on

so the thing is like with any small talk don't go into too much detail like

if your kid is sick if you're sick

and don't start this like oh my kid is sick i feel

so bad no no no no no no like your answer would be i'm doing great i'm

the link in the description to get 10 off your desired

course thank you careerist.com for sponsoring today's video a lot of

interviewers like to ask you about your education here are a

couple of helpful phrases i hold a master's degree in physics

from stanford university i have a master's degree in physics i graduated from stanford with a master's degree in physics Now,

100

of course, it's very important that you're able to describe your skills, what you can do as a professional.

101

I am qualified in physics, computer science, etc. I have a particular interest in social media marketing.

102

I have a NIL certificate.

103

My score is 8.0.

104

I think the most valuable skill I have is being creative.

105

My strengths are creating videos, coming up with catchy thumbnails, coming up with intriguing titles.

106

But this is like if you're interviewing for a YouTube manager or a social media position, you would need to insert something that relates to you.

107

I have a flair for, or I am good at making videos.

108

Now, of course, your experience is basically what matters the most.

109

As an employer, I don't, well, I do care about education because it provides great foundation.

110

And if it's a great university, I know the person likes to succeed.

111

The person likes to take tests.

112

The person is academically capable.

113

But when I'm looking for someone to join my team, I look for personal skills.

114

Like if you say something bad about your previous company, or you say something bad about your ex co-workers this is

115

a huge red flag for me like I would never hire someone who says bad things about other people

116

because I know I'm gonna be in that position in two months

117

when this person decides to quit and would say bad things about me

118

so never ever ever say bad things about your previous company colleagues

119

and ideally of course you wouldn't discuss politics religion gossip during your interview

120

Now let's talk about the experience, something that really, really matters to me.

121

If the person is good and this is what I'm trying to understand during the interview, the next thing is of course skills.

122

After understanding that I have a good person in front of me, of course I'm going to ask about experience because it's really important.

123

And if the person has worked in a similar position, that means it's going to be very easy for them to integrate in my company.

124

I worked for Google as a software engineer.

125

Oh, and by the way, if you guys ever want to work for me or LinguaTrip, I always post jobs.

126

If we have any openings, I always post them on my Instagram story, on my Instagram in stories.

127

So please, the link is down below.

128

Go ahead and subscribe.

129

And hopefully some of you are going to be working with my team as well.

130

I worked in, and then you insert a sector.

131

I worked in marketing for five years i was promoted to

132

the ceo position i have five years experience in social media

133

marketing i have a proven track record in managing teams i led five marketing campaigns in this industry Now,

134

let's look at a couple more examples of an interview.

135

Hi Marina, I am Sarah, Head of Marketing.

136

Nice to meet you.

137

It's nice to meet you too.

138

Thank you for seeing me today.

139

Why don't you tell me a little bit about your experience?

140

Great.

141

Well, I just graduated from college last year with a degree in business.

142

I have completed my internship during the last semester.

143

I've learned so much there and it really gave me a good feel for sales.

144

Internship is when a university or college student works for a company and does a job that is related to their degree.

145

And it is a very important experience for students because you can practice where you just learned.

146

That sounds like a great program.

147

What were your responsibilities?

148

I was mainly responsible for client satisfaction.

149

I was constantly jumping on calls with them and I was also responsible for generating reports about their satisfaction.

150

It really gave me this unique perspective of what a customer wants

151

and I got to know the company from the ground up.

152

From the ground up means complete all aspects.

153

It seems like you don't have too much experience in the field

154

which is fine but what are some of the things you think you could bring to the table?

155

To bring to the table to contribute something of value.

156

As an employee, I want to be valuable for the company

157

and I also want to bring my unique experience to help the company grow.

158

To start with, I consider myself a very fast learner.

159

By the way, when you give yourself a compliment, make sure that you come up with an example, with a real life anecdote why you're a fast learner.

160

For example, when I was doing my internship, the company asked me to create a YouTube video for them.

161

So I went on YouTube, researched how you create a video, and I started a video blog for them.

162

I created the whole strategy, I created all the scripts, I made the videos myself and I also posted them.

163

So when I left, they had the whole action plan of how they can continue doing this.

164

See, I gave them the real life anecdote.

165

And I was also very proactive in my role.

166

Proactive means taking steps without major guidance or supervision.

167

So I decided to be proactive and I actually told the company management

168

that they should also start a TikTok account and an Instagram account because they're a B2C company.

169

B2C means that they sell to individual customers and social media is the best way to reach their target audience.

170

Great.

171

How do you overcome any challenges you come across?

172

I honestly like challenges because they take you to the next level.

173

Can you give me an example?

174

When we were implementing, to implement means to put into action, when we were implementing the social media strategy, we realized that if I'm the face of the company,

175

what happens when I leave?

176

So I actually came up with a character for the company

177

and they started using a costume to create all of their videos

178

and now you don't have to have a particular person who is making all the videos for the company.

179

You can just have this character.

180

Anyone can wear this costume and create all the videos.

181

I really love challenges because they actually bring you to the next higher level.

182

See, again, a real life anecdote.

183

Don't just say, I'm proactive.

184

I'm amazing.

185

I'm the best worker.

186

Prove it, prove it, prove it.

187

Ideally, by the way, with numbers.

188

If you have any numbers, like let me give you this example.

189

So basically, I started their social media strategy with zero subscribers everywhere.

190

And after my three months internship, we had 15,000 subscribers on YouTube, 100,000 subscribers on TikTok, 5,000 subscribers on Instagram.

191

And most importantly for the company's management, we were able to generate around $10,000 per day selling on those social media platforms.

192

See?

193

Numbers, numbers.

194

They could be small compared to other companies, but when you see the progress, you can also add like that was a 200% growth, 300% growth.

195

This is all really important because it shows real results.

196

Well, Marina, that all sounds great.

197

You will most likely hear back from us by the end of this week.

198

All right.

199

Thanks for the opportunity.

200

I'm really looking forward to connecting with you soon.

201

And also the end of the interview is a great chance

202

for you to ask questions like what does the process look like?

203

or can I ask you a question about your policies regarding employees having their own YouTube channels?

204

I don't know, like whatever you wanted to ask.

205

And it's better to have a question, at least one question.

206

It just shows that you're interested in the company, interested in the process.

207

Because if you don't have any questions, you're like, ah, no, I think you told me everything.

208

I don't know.

209

You want to start the dialogue.

210

You want to be proactive.

211

You want to show this interest.

212

So sometimes the interviewer would ask you, do you have any questions for us?

213

And I would ask, have you guys thought about throwing an event for your customers?

214

Because I see how loyal your fan base is.

215

And I think they would really, really appreciate an offline in-person event to meet the company's officials.

216

I know, a suggestion.

217

Have you ever considered this?

218

Just to show that you're on it.

219

all right thank you guys

220

227

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
