ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: English Job Interview 2026 – Speak Confidently in Your First Interview | Chill English Podcast A1–B1

Hello everyone and welcome back to the Chill English Channel, where learning English feels calm, useful and friendly.

Hey friends, we are really happy you are here today because interviews in English are very important now.

Today's topic is English at the interview 2026 new.

And yes, interviews look a little different these days.

Many interviews are online now.

Many are short, and many focus on how you speak, not only what you say.

This episode is made for A1 to B1 learners, so please relax and listen without pressure.

You do not need perfect grammar, and you do not need big or difficult words.

Simple English, clear ideas, and a calm voice can help you a lot in interviews.

If this is your first time here, please remember to subscribe to the channel now.

Subscribing helps you practice English often, and practice is the key to confidence.

Now let's imagine a real situation together, because imagination helps learning.

You are sitting in front of your screen, maybe at home, maybe in a quiet room.

Your camera is on, your microphone is ready, and your heart is beating a little fast.

This feeling is normal even for people with good English.

The interviewer smiles and says, hello, nice to meet you, and you answer politely.

Then comes the question that almost everyone hears first.

Can you tell me about yourself?

And suddenly your mind feels empty.

Yes, many learners feel this way, and that is why we start with this question today.

In 2026, interviewers want short, clear, and honest answers.

They do not want a long story, and they do not want memorized text.

They want to hear your English, not perfect English.

So, let's break this question into easy parts that you can remember.

A good answer has three simple parts, and this works very well for A1 to B1 learners.

First, say your name and your current situation.

For example, your job now, your studies, or what you were doing these days.

Second, say one or two things you are good at.

You can talk about skills, tasks, or things you enjoy at work or school.

Third, say why you are interested in this job or this company.

This shows motivation, and motivation is very important in interviews.

Now, let's listen to a simple example together.

I'm Daniel.

I work as a delivery assistant, and I have two years of experience.

I'm good at time management.

I work well alone, and I like this job because I enjoy active work.

This answer is simple, clear, and easy to understand.

It is not long, but it gives useful information to the interviewer.

Another important thing in interviews in 2026 is how you speak, not only your words.

Speaking slowly and clearly is better than speaking fast and nervous.

You can take a short pause before answering, and this is completely okay.

A pause shows you are thinking, not that you are weak in English.

If you do not understand a question, you can ask politely for help.

You can say, sorry, can you repeat the question, please?

Or you can say, can you say that more slowly, please?

These sentences are simple, polite, and very professional.

Many learners are afraid to ask, but interviewers usually appreciate clarity.

Another common interview question is about experience, and this scares many people.

But experience does not only mean full-time jobs.

You can talk about training, school projects, volunteer work, or daily tasks.

For example, you can say you worked in a team, followed instructions, or helped customers.

These examples show your attitude, and attitude is very important in 2026 interviews.

Companies want people who are reliable, polite, and ready to learn.

Even simple English can show these qualities very clearly.

As you listen now, try to imagine your own answers in your head.

You do not need to speak yet, just think and feel comfortable with the ideas.

This feeling of comfort is the first step to speaking better in interviews.

And once you feel a little more comfortable, it becomes easier to build stronger answers, especially when we start looking at more specific interview questions

and situations that are very common now and becoming even more important as interviews continue to change.

Alright, now let's go a little deeper and look at more interview questions you will hear in 2026.

Yes, because interviews today are often short, but the questions are very focused.

Interviewers want to know how you work, how you think, and how you communicate.

And remember, they are not testing your English level like a school exam.

They are testing if they can work with you comfortably.

Let's talk about a very common question that sounds difficult at first.

Can you tell me about your experience?

Many A1 and A2 learners feel scared when they hear the word experience.

But experience does not only mean a big job or many years of work.

Experience can be small, simple, and very real.

You can talk about daily tasks, simple duties, or things you do often.

For example, cleaning, organizing, helping people, answering messages, or following rules.

These are all real experiences.

Let's listen to a simple and safe answer.

I worked in a small team, I followed instructions, and I helped customers every day.

This answer uses simple verbs and clear ideas.

It shows responsibility, teamwork, and communication.

Another question you may hear is about your strengths.

The interviewer may ask, what are your strengths?

This does not mean you need to sound perfect or amazing.

It means you talk about things you do well.

Choose one or two strengths only, not many.

For example, you can say you are punctual, friendly, careful, or organized.

Here is a very clear example.

I am very punctual, I like to be on time, and I always finish my tasks.

This answer is short, honest, and easy to understand.

In 2026, being reliable is a very strong strength.

Now let's talk about a question that feels uncomfortable for many learners.

Sometimes interviewers ask about weaknesses.

Yes, this question makes many people nervous.

But do not worry, because your answer can be simple and safe.

A good trick is to talk about a small weakness and show learning.

For example, you can say you are still learning something.

Here is a good example for A1 to B1 learners.

Sometimes I need more time with new tasks, but I learn fast and I ask questions.

This answer shows honesty and a willingness to learn.

And willingness to learn is very important in modern interviews.

Another common question in 2026 interviews is about teamwork.

The interviewer may ask, do you like working in a team?

Even if you prefer working alone, you can still answer positively.

100

You can say you work well alone and in a team.

101

For example, I like working in a team because we help each other.

102

Or you can say, I can work alone but I enjoy team support.

103

These answers show flexibility.

104

Now let's talk about online interviews because they are very common now.

105

In online interviews, your voice and clarity are even more important.

106

It is okay if your English is simple, as long as it is clear.

107

Always check your microphone and camera before the interview.

108

Sit in a quiet place and look at the camera when you speak.

109

Looking at the camera helps you sound more confident.

110

And smiling a little helps your voice sound friendly.

111

Now, if there's a small technical problem, stay calm.

112

You can say, sorry, my connection is not very good.

113

This sentence is simple and professional.

114

Another very common question is about availability.

115

Interviewers often ask, when can you start?

116

You can answer honestly and clearly.

117

For example, I can start next week, or I'm available from Monday.

118

Clear answers help interviewers trust you.

119

Now let's practice a short interview flow together.

120

The interviewer asks, can you tell me about yourself?

121

You answer with your name, situation, skills, and motivation.

122

Then they ask about experience, and you give simple examples.

123

Then they ask about strengths, and you choose one or two.

124

This structure repeats in many interviews.

125

When you know the structure, you feel more control.

126

And control helps reduce stress.

127

Remember, interviews are conversations, not tests.

128

It is okay to breathe, pause, and think.

129

Confidence comes from preparation, not from perfect English.

130

As you listen now, try to repeat some answers quietly or in your head.

131

You're training your brain to feel comfortable with interview English.

132

And when your brain feels comfortable, your mouth speaks more easily.

133

Now let's listen to a real-life job interview dialogue.

134

Hello, Maria.

135

Thank you for coming today.

136

Hello.

137

Thank you for inviting me.

138

As you know, the company is growing and we have a new job in the HR department.

139

We want someone to lead training and development in the company.

140

Yes, I think my skills and experience are a good match for this job.

141

That sounds good.

142

Your CV looks strong.

143

Can you tell me in your own words what you have been doing in the past four years?

144

Sure.

145

My first job four years ago was in a small HR company.

146

They offered HR services, including learning and development, to other companies.

147

So it was only B2B, right?

148

Yes, we worked only with companies, not directly with customers.

149

I see.

150

And you left that company three years ago.

151

Yes.

152

I wanted more stability and to work in a bigger company.

153

I joined a company with about 100 staff and a small HR team.

154

Since the team is small, I worked on many HR tasks.

155

I also managed learning and development.

156

I understand.

157

Why do you want to change jobs now?

158

I really enjoy learning and development.

159

I get very good feedback in this area.

160

I want to specialize, and your company has around 2,000 employees, right?

161

Yes, that is correct.

162

A bigger company would give me the chance to focus more on learning and development.

163

I also like your company's values and brand.

164

That sounds good.

165

I see you have a learning and development qualification.

166

Yes, I got a diploma two years ago.

167

I am also studying another diploma in psychology, focusing on learning and performance management.

168

Very good.

169

You have the qualifications and experience we need.

170

What do you think will be the main challenges in joining a bigger company?

171

I know I don't have experience in a very large company, but this can be a good thing.

172

I don't have old habits that could be hard to change.

173

Yes, that can be positive.

174

I am used to helping employees personally.

175

In a company with 2,000 staff, I will have to do this differently.

176

But I have many ideas that can work on a larger scale.

177

I understand.

178

Do you have any questions for me?

179

Yes, I have two short questions.

180

Go ahead.

181

Who would I work with every day?

182

You would report to the HR manager.

183

Then there's the HR team of six people.

184

You might get help from an intern sometimes.

185

Okay, that is clear.

186

My second question is, how will success in this job be measured?

187

Good question.

188

We have a performance management system.

189

We know some learning and development needs in the company, but we don't have a full strategy yet.

190

Your job would be to create and then put this strategy into practice.

191

Thank you.

192

That sounds interesting.

193

Great.

194

Thank you again for coming today.

195

We will talk about all candidates next week, and I will contact you by the end of next week.

196

Thank you for your time.

197

I hope to continue discussing this role with you.

198

All right.

199

Now we are in the final part of the interview, and this is very important.

200

Yes, many people forget that the last minutes can change how the interviewer remembers you.

201

Even simple English can feel strong and confident if you follow a few steps.

202

The first step is to prepare for the question, do you have any questions for us?

203

Many learners say no because they feel nervous or tired.

204

But saying no is a missed chance to show interest.

205

You do not need a difficult question.

206

One simple question is enough.

207

For example, what does a normal day look like in this job?

208

Or, which skills are most important for this position?

209

These questions are short, polite, and show engagement.

210

Another tip is to listen carefully while the interviewer talks about the company or job.

211

You can respond with small phrases like, That sounds interesting, or I understand.

212

Even short reactions show confidence and attention.

213

When you answer, keep sentences short and clear.

214

It is okay to pause when your idea is finished.

215

Pauses show you are thinking, not uncertain.

216

If you do not understand a question, ask politely.

217

For example, Can you repeat the question, please?

218

Or, could you speak more slowly, please?

219

These sentences are safe, simple, and professional.

220

Now, let's talk about body language.

221

Sit straight, relax your shoulders, and look at the camera.

222

A small smile helps your voice sound friendly.

223

Even if you feel nervous, slow speech and calm posture make a big difference.

224

Let's review how to answer the final questions in detail.

225

First, introduce yourself clearly if needed.

226

Second, talk about your experience briefly.

227

Third, mention your skills or strengths in short sentences.

228

Fourth, stop when your idea is complete.

229

For example, I have three years of customer service experience.

230

I am careful and friendly, and I enjoy working with teams.

231

This answer is clear, polite, and easy to understand.

232

Another tip is to show that you are willing to learn.

233

You can say, I like learning new tasks and I practice every day.

234

Even short sentences like this are very effective.

235

When the interviewer explains the company or job, listen carefully.

236

Short responses like, that sounds interesting, or I understand, are enough.

237

You do not need to add more if you feel unsure.

238

Finally, always thank the interviewer at the end.

239

You can say, thank you for this opportunity, or thank you for your time today.

240

Polite endings leave a positive impression.

241

After the interview, take a deep breath and feel proud.

242

Speaking English in an interview is not easy, but every attempt is practice.

243

Every interview helps you improve your English and your confidence.

244

Now let's summarize the most important tips from this episode.

245

Use simple and clear sentences.

246

Speak slowly and pause when needed.

247

Answer questions with short examples.

248

Show a positive attitude.

249

Ask one simple question at the end.

250

Always be polite and calm.

251

These techniques work for A1, A2, and B1 learners.

252

They also work in real interviews in 2026.

253

And remember, mistakes are normal.

254

Clarity and confidence are more important than perfect grammar.

255

As you practice, your English will feel more natural.

256

Your preparation shows in your voice, your posture, and your words.
