So you have an interview to conduct with a new hire, you're a new leader, you've never conducted an interview before,
你現在要給一位新員工做面試,而你是個新上任的管理者,之前從來沒有主持過面試,
2
and you probably have a lot of questions about how to conduct a job interview.
你可能對如何開展求職面試有很多疑問。
3
How can you tell if someone's a good fit?
你怎麼判斷一個人是否合適?
4
How do you know what questions to ask?
你怎麼知道該問些什麼問題?
5
Well, in this video, I have got you covered with some practical advice on how to conduct a job interview.
在這段影片中,我將為大家提供一些關於如何進行求職面試的實用建議。
6
So let's get straight into it.
7
The first thing I want to talk about is the interview structure.
8
So what stages or structure should the interview follow and ideally there are three stages to every job interview.
9
Generally when you conduct an interview, the interview will last one to two hours and the candidate will meet with two to three people.
10
Now the first stage of the interview is where you ask the candidate questions.
11
You need to know if they're going to be a good fit
12
and you do this by asking them the right questions and by asking them good questions during the interview.
13
It helps you understand more about who this person is.
14
Will they be a good fit for the job?
15
Will they be a good person to hire for the company?
16
And you only have a short amount of time to do this.
17
So generally interviews go for one hour.
18
So you only have 20 to 30 minutes within that one hour time frame to ask the candidate questions.
19
And this means you really need to ask them good questions.
20
So you don't waste your time and you don't waste their time either.
21
The second part to a job interview is where you sell the job and the company to the candidate.
22
And for this, you need to remember that a job interview is a two -way process.
23
It's not only you asking the candidate questions to see if they're going to be a good fit.
24
You need to be able to sell the job and sell the company to the candidate as well.
25
In the current market, job candidates have a lot of choice.
26
They could be interviewing with many different companies and every one of those companies are offering different benefits or different incentives.
27
So sometimes you really have to fight for the good candidate, to fight for the candidate that you want.
28
Now the third part of the interview should be where the candidate asks you questions.
29
Now I do recommend that you tell the candidate at the beginning of the interview.
30
They can stop you at any time throughout the interview
31
and ask you questions about something they would like to know more about.
32
But if they have additional questions, and it's very likely they'll have additional questions, especially after you have explained what the job is about,
33
what the company is about, it is a good idea for you to have the last
34
part of the interview allocated for them to ask you additional questions.
35
You want them to walk away from the interview being well informed, having a full picture and a full idea of what the job is about,
36
whether they would like it or not, what the company is about, whether they would fit into the company.
37
You want them to have as much information as possible
38
so they can make the best decision if and when you offer them a position.
39
So those are the three stages that interviews generally follow.
40
Next, we're going to talk about what questions you should ask during the interview.
41
But before we get into that, if you like what you've learned so far in this video,
42
there are two things you can do to help my channel.
43
The first is to hit the like button at the bottom of this video.
44
This tells the algorithm that people like you like this video, so they'll show it to more people on YouTube.
45
And the second thing you can do is to subscribe to my channel.
46
So every week I release videos to help you advance as an emerging leader, and I would be honored to share my future content with you.
47
Now let's move on to questions you should ask during the interview.
48
Most people who are new to job interviews
49
or conducting job interviews have no idea of what questions they should or they need to ask during the interview.
50
The last thing you want to do is not ask the right questions
51
and end up with a new hire who just isn't a good fit for your team.
52
In a moment, I'll share with you 15 sample questions that you can use for your next job interview.
53
But first, I want you to think about what is required in the job.
54
What does this successful candidate need to do?
55
What qualities or strengths do they need to convey in that job?
56
What experience do you want them to have when they step into that new role?
57
These are the things that you need to think about when preparing for your job interview.
58
But the good news for you is most of this work has already been done when you crafted the job advertisement.
59
Whether it was you, whether it was the HR department,
60
there has been thought put into what is required for the person you are about to hire.
61
So I recommend you get out that job advertisement, look at what competencies are talked about or mentioned in
62
that job ad and include them in the questions that you create for the job interview.
63
And I recommend that you think not only about what you currently need, not only about what you need right now for the job,
64
but what could you potentially need next year in two years time or even five years time.
65
You need to think about this in the long term or more the medium term as well.
66
So you can make sure that you hire the right person for the job now,
67
but also the right person for the job in two years time
68
or five years time because the jobs evolve and people should be able to evolve with the job as well.
69
Ideally, you want to hire somebody who has future potential in that role or in the company.
70
So here are some sample questions that you can ask the job candidate.
71
Now, I have these written down because there is no way I am going to remember them.
72
So if you're stuck for questions to ask and you need inspiration, these are 15 questions that you can use.
73
Question one, tell me about yourself.
74
Question two, what do you know about our company and why do you want to work here?
75
Question three, what do you know about the job you're applying for?
76
Question four, what skills and strengths can you bring to this position?
77
Question five, what is the most interesting project you've worked on in your career or past position and why?
78
Number six, have you ever been in a position where you had to perform a challenging task
79
or do something that was new to you?
80
How did you handle it?
81
What did you learn from that experience?
82
And the topic of this question should be linked to the required competencies for that job.
83
Number seven, can you tell me about your current job?
84
Number eight, what are the best and worst things about your current job?
85
Number nine, why are you leaving your current job?
86
Number 10, how would your boss describe you?
87
Number 11, how would your co -workers describe you?
88
Number 12, Can you tell me about any skills or competencies that you don't have yet, but you would like to develop?
89
Number 13, can you tell me about something that's not on your resume or your LinkedIn profile?
90
14, what are your future career goals?
91
15, do you have any questions for me?
92
So as I mentioned, you can pick and choose from these questions, choose the ones that are most relevant to you.
93
If you can think of other questions that you want to include
94
because of the competencies that are required for the job you are interviewing for,
95
well then replace some of the questions I've mentioned with those questions instead.
96
Now, I also recommend you to share the questions with the interviewee beforehand.
97
A lot of companies don't do this.
98
They want to keep the questions secret.
99
They don't want to share them with the job candidates coming for the interview.
100
They want it to be a surprise for them to see how they react.
101
But my thoughts about this is it's a bit unfair for the job candidate.
102
They're coming to the job interview.
103
They're going to be stressed they're going to be really nervous.
104
When people are stressed you don't get a good picture of who they really are.
105
They have a mask on because they want to do such a fantastic job and win that job interview.
106
So they're going to show you a version of themselves
107
that they want you to see or that they think you want to see.
108
And this is how nerves and stress can sometimes mask a person's true potential or a true personality.
109
You need to see the version of them without stress.
110
You need to see the version of them in a normal, stress -free, relaxed environment.
111
Of course, they're going to be somewhat nervous and stressed.
112
It's a job interview at the end of the day.
113
There's probably a lot riding on them winning this interview.
114
But as much as you can, you want to see the version of them that is the true them.
115
And sharing the questions with the candidate in advance helps to bring their stress levels down
116
because they know what to expect and they can prepare better for the job interview
117
if they know what questions you're going to ask them.
118
Now, you don't have to share all of the questions.
119
You don't have to share the 15 questions that you're going to ask them.
120
But even by sharing five questions that you could ask them or that you will ask them, it will help to relax them.
121
It will help them to walk into that job interview a lot more relaxed,
122
a lot less stressed, and it will help them to show the true version of who they are.
123
I want to put a quick break in this video to see if you have downloaded the Leadership Evaluation Toolkit.
124
This is a free download from my website, a 35 -question self -assessment to see where you stand as a leader.
125
It is very much focused on visibility to see how visible you are as a leader.
126
I'll put the link on the screen at the bottom here
127
and it's also in the description below if you want to click on it and go straight to that resource.
128
If you have decided that the person you are interviewing is a good fit for the job, if they have answered the questions really well,
129
then you can move on to selling the job and selling the company to them.
130
So this is the second stage in the interview structure.
131
You have to remember that the person sitting in front of you, the person interviewing for this job may have other interviews lined up after yours.
132
They may be looking at other companies and other jobs.
133
You may not be their first choice. So you, part of your job during the interview is to sell the job to them
134
and to sell the company to them as well.
135
You need to convince them why they should work for you and the benefits of working with you.
136
Start by explaining in your own words what does the job entail.
137
What will their day -to -day duties be?
138
What are their responsibilities?
139
Who do they report to?
140
What does the team or department do?
141
How many people are in the team?
142
How do they fit into the team or the structure?
143
Then you can move on to the company and start selling the company to them.
144
So talk about what the company does.
145
Of course, they should already know this, but hearing from you helps to give a bit more clarity to what the company does.
146
What are the values of the company?
147
This is really important so that person can see if they will fit into the company.
148
What are the goals for the department or the company?
149
Where is the company located?
150
How many employees does the company have?
151
This is basic information that the interviewee probably already knows about, but it's nice for them to hear it directly from you.
152
And the most important thing you need to talk about and tell the candidate is how much does the position pay?
153
Let's talk about that in more detail.
154
It's a bit of a controversial topic.
155
Many companies do not share salary range openly during the interview process.
156
I guess they feel that they have better bargaining power if they don't reveal or share this information during the first interview.
157
But my opinion on this is it's not fair to the candidate.
158
You need to give them an honest and a transparent interview process.
159
They have spent hours preparing for this interview.
160
They may have even spent days or weeks preparing for this interview
161
or at least stressing about it anyway you need to tell them how much they could be earning.
162
This is probably the most important question they want answered during the interview.
163
If they walk out of the interview not knowing the salary range
164
or how much you could be paying them and they walk into another interview that tells them immediately,
165
directly they're going to be earning $80 ,000 a year and they get that job offer,
166
it's an easy decision of which job they're going to take.
167
You don't have to give the exact salary to the job candidate
168
and I recommend that you don't
169
because it's very likely after you conduct the interview you will need to consult with the HR department
170
or other managers or leaders of the company as to how much you want to pay this person.
171
So I recommend you give a salary range between $50 ,000, $60 ,000 or $60 ,000, $80 ,000 or $120 ,000 to $150 ,000.
172
Whatever the salary range is going to be, the person interviewing for the job needs to know how much they could be paid.
173
They need to know whether it's going to be worth their time to continue the interview process with you.
174
The final part of the interview is where you open the interview up for the candidate to ask you questions.
175
As I mentioned this is something you should tell them they're able to do all throughout the interview process
176
but if they have additional questions
177
and it's very likely they'll have additional questions at the end
178
you need to allocate some time for them to ask you those questions.
179
Now, well -prepared candidates will ask you questions.
180
They will have questions prepared that they want to ask you.
181
But sometimes people clam up, sometimes people get nervous, or maybe you have already answered the questions that person has prepared in advance for you.
182
So you may need to prompt them to ask you questions by saying things like, what did you think about the company?
183
How do you feel about the job?
184
Is there any information we've discussed that you would like me to elaborate on?
185
This prompt can help them to relax a bit
186
and to trigger their mind into thinking about what questions they could possibly ask you.
187
It basically makes their job a little easier during the interview.
188
Because remember at the end of the day, you want to get to know the real person.
189
You don't want to know the person who is hiding behind stress and nerves.
190
You want to help them relax so you know the real person you could potentially be working with.
191
And at the very end of the interview, you need to inform the candidate of the next steps.
192
When should they expect to hear an answer from you?
193
Who will contact them with an answer?
194
Who can they contact if they have any additional questions?
195
You should then review their contact details, their email address and their postal address and walk them to the elevator,
196
thank them for the time and say goodbye.
197
I know it can be really daunting to conduct a job interview as a new manager or as a new leader,
198
but I truly hope that this video has given you some really good guidance and direction on what to do,
199
what to ask and how to just go about it in general.
200
Another topic that many emerging leaders want to know about is how to give negative feedback.
201
This can be a really stressful situation, especially if you've never given negative feedback before, or even if you've given it before,
202
you might just be really stressed or nervous about it.
203
So in this video, I share an easy, simple three -step structure to follow to help you give negative feedback when you need to.
204
Thank you so much for watching.

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
