1
- Many people make the mistake of thinking the why are you good fit for this role question should only focus on what you bring to the table.
2
Well, that is certainly a part of it.
3
We'll see in this video that adding an honest, selfish element to your answer, will help you come off as more genuine and memorable.
4
So let's get started.
5
such as why should we hire you?
6
And what makes you a good candidate?
7
But they're all really trying to uncover the same three things.
8
Number one, what can you bring to the role?
9
Number two, what you are trying to get out of it?
10
And number three, what makes you unique?
11
You should definitely address all three of these underlying questions, but you want to make sure your answer is structured with the right proportions as well.
12
In my experience, 50% of your answer should be dedicated to one.
13
30 percent of the time spent on two, and the remaining 20% left for three.
14
Let's start breaking each one of these down.
15
Starting with the first part of your answer, what can you bring to the role?
16
You want to spend the most time on this part because this is where you get to match a strength of yours to the job requirement.
17
In other words, your value proposition.
18
First, you want to do some research, and this is where it gets interesting.
19
A small trick I like to use when reading through the job description is to copy and paste all the text into a free word cloud generator to see which words or phrases come up the most frequently.
20
While the job description doesn't usually paint a complete picture of the role, this gives you a great starting point to see which one of your experiences are most relevant.
21
For the next step, if you already have experience in the area you have identified, perfect.
22
Mention how the new role represents a new challenge for you and how you're looking to further grow your expertise in that particular field.
23
If on the other hand, you are a fresh grad or working professional looking to move to another industry altogether, you want to highlight relevant attributes that are transferable to the new role.
24
In other words, if you have relevant work experience, double down on it.
25
If you don't, mention skills you have developed that will help you succeed in the new position.
26
Finally, because 50% of your answer is allocated to this first part, you can have a full story prepared using the star format.
27
If you're not familiar with star or need a quick refresher, feel free to check out my behavioral interview video linked down below.
28
So for example, let's say I'm applying for a position at Tesla and totally not because of their latest stock price or anything.
29
The job post on LinkedIn is that of a manager position and their global operations team.
30
I copy and paste all the text in their job description to a free workout generator that I'll also link down below.
31
And here are some of the key words that stand out team, global team, supply chain, logistics, system implementation, new process.
32
For me, my supply chain experience is limited to tracking my package on Amazon.
33
So that's not really an area I can speak to.
34
But I do manage a team and I do optimize a lot of internal processes in my current role as a B2B product marketer.
35
So my answer, I probably highlight my leadership abilities and give examples on internal processes I work on right now and how those experiences might be applicable to this new role.
36
If you found this first part helpful, drop a like and comment down below or whether the word cloud tip is something you're planning to use.
37
On to the second part of your answer.
38
What do you want to take away from this role?
39
Many candidates are hesitant to say what they want to get out of the job because they think the answer should just be about pitching themselves to the company.
40
But the thing is, by saying what you are selfishly looking for, not only does it help you come up as more authentic, but it shows the interviewer that you have done the research.
41
Because otherwise you wouldn't know about the specifics in the first place.
42
For example, when I was interviewing for my initial role at Google, the account manager position in the sales team, I specifically mentioned how I get a rush from seeing my clients immediately adopt my recommendations in their Google Ads accounts.
43
This was a big deal for me because of my previous management consulting position, it took weeks or even months to see the fruits of my labor.
44
But in a sales position at Google, I saw it almost immediately.
45
Short term dopamine addiction aside, my answer showed the hiring manager that number one, Jeff is pretty results driven, since he's excited about the impact that he's made.
46
Number two, Jeff has done the research to know that part of the job revolves around the Google Ads platform and number three, he is a genuine person for admitting part of the reason he's applying is for the dopamine hit that he gets.
47
If you're having trouble with this part, it's helpful to think about the ideal end result if you were to get the job.
48
What would happen if you did the job really well?
49
Would you feel some personal satisfaction like I do?
50
Would you be able to further grow in your area of expertise?
51
Would you be able to build connections in a space that you're unable to before?
52
For example, I know some legal counsels who start off in corporate law, that went on to join tech companies because they want a more practical experience about the laws regulating the Internet and technology space.
53
Final tip for this part is to find someone working in the role that you're applying for, and asking them whether they're happy with their job.
54
If yes, why?
55
Their answer might give you some inspiration.
56
By the way, I have a Facebook group where I share weekly tips.
57
Consider joining if you haven't already.
58
I'll link it down below.
59
Finally, closing out your answer with something unique about you.
60
The reason for this is very simple and slightly superficial.
61
And that's to make you memorable in the mind of the interviewer.
62
There are two ways to go about this.
63
Number one, mention something truly unique or at least uncommon about you and how that relates to the role you're applying for.
64
Or number two, mention a common strength and give a memorable example.
65
For me, I spent half my life in the US and half around Greater China.
66
While this background doesn't even make me close to being a unique special snowflake, I could and I did mention how my international upbringing would benefit a multinational company like Google, or I should mention how I'm proactive which is a common strength and give the memorable example that to better engage my clients, I went out of my way to create how to videos when I was still in the sales team.
67
So to quickly recap.
68
Your answer to the why are you good fit for this role question, should address all three points, the interviewer wants to uncover.
69
Number one, what can you bring to the role?
70
Number two, what do you want to get out of it?
71
And number three, what makes you unique?
72
Similar to the tell me about yourself question, limit your answer to two, to two and a half minutes while allocating 50% of your time to point one, 30 percent to point two, and the remaining 20% to point three,

本片段的口語練習目標
這段影片適合想要提升英語口語練習（尤其是面試場景表達）的學習者，目標是掌握清晰、有結構的回答邏輯，同時讓表達更自然、有記憶點。無論是準備雅思口語練習還是日常職場面試，都能通過模仿其敘事節奏和內容框架，突破“生硬背誦”的瓶頸，實現更流暢、更有感染力的表達。
實用短語庫
- value proposition（價值主張）
- transferable skills（可遷移技能）
- star format（STAR法則，即情境、任務、行動、結果）
- immediate adoption（立即採納）
- fruits of labor（勞動成果）
如何通過影子跟讀提升表達
影片中提到的面試回答技巧，恰好是英語影子跟讀（shadow speak）的優質素材。影子跟讀時，可重點關注以下兩點：一是節奏把控，比如“50%用於闡述價值、30%講個人收穫、20%突出獨特性”的結構，需模仿其輕重緩急；二是自然語氣，像“short term dopamine addiction aside”這種口語化表達，要注意連讀和弱讀。
練習時，先逐句跟讀，確保每個短語（如“transferable attributes”）發音準確；再整段複述，感受“真誠表達個人動機”時的語氣變化。這不僅能提升雅思口語練習中的邏輯清晰度，還能讓英語口語練習更貼近真實交流場景。試試用影片中的示例（如特斯拉麵試回答）進行影子跟讀，你會發現自己的表達越來越流暢、有說服力。
記住，影子跟讀的關鍵是“同步理解+模仿”，而非機械重複。通過影片中的實用案例，你既能掌握面試技巧，又能悄悄提升口語能力——這就是“一舉兩得”的學習方法！
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事 | have identified · have developed · have done |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼，而不是誰做的 | is structured · is allocated |
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。
