What questions do you dread during a job interview? 🙈 -Christine

"tell me about your weaknesses" this always feels like a trap. There is this pressure to talk about something that could be seen as a weakness, but not to the point where it is a red flag that would rule me out for the position. So it has to be a weakness that is fixable to show you are aware of the places you still need to grow without making it seem like you are a mess haha no easy task.

I couldn't stop laughing at the sound effect to the question. It's like an evil question that shouldn't be brought up. 🤣🤣🤣

Interview question "Tell me about yourself" Think of it this way......"Please take the next 1.5 to 2.5 minutes and summarize your skills and experiences that >>directly relate

So don't actually talk about yourself, talk about the only thing the company cares about, how you make them money and provide value.

My response is always to ask them what specifically they are wanting to know about me. It's a conversation, not an Inquisition.

I was feeling so lost and lonely about my job search as a college senior & this series humanized things so much for me, im so glad the boss hired christine !! I'm also an Asian woman myself looking to work in media and I needed this representation so much atm

Great work Christine. Especially the progress you have made within a week, thanks to good preparation. A concise and insightful video - very helpful and thanks for it!

Where's Christine? I miss these Christine vs Work videos. :( They are super super helpful!

I love the before and after! I would love to see more of the entire process. Like what did the outline look like. How many times did she practice it. Any types of self-reflection she did.

Oh my god! this really helped me! Usually I just repeat my CV! Also I LOL with this video!! Thank you very much!

It's 2024 but I still re-watch this video whenever I have interviews! Job interviews are indeed a nerve-wracking experience and Christine made a unique and fun how-to video with it. More of these videos from Christine, please.

Thank you so much for this video. I never know how to tackle this question and now I know. It was the first question during the interview! I was expecting it, so once I got it out of the way, the rest of the interview was easy.

Useful tips to prep for a difficult question! Well done Christine.

you’re killing it on the effects too! 😁

Christine, you rock! I loved this video, I needed it lol

I love to watch all your videos! You are a damn good fun editor 💖

Omg your the best- love your tips and re-enactments! Omg so me.. I need help LOL ! Pls keep bringing them on! I’m Just going back to the work field after a long gap from working and I need this!! - thank you!!!

There is another question that i cant answer "where do you see yourself in 5 years time?"To me this terrible question and only people who do not want to develop themselves can answer this question. 5 years is a long time, it depends on lots of factors and i am willing to change myself to adapt, so how the hell will i know where i will be in 5 years?!

Okay 👌 Synopsis: Video number two (2) and Christina kills it-yet; again! Dynamite 🧨 dialogue, witty comments with a comedic flair, whilst still maintaining professionalism + educating the audience. I’m almost confused whether or not Christina’s an actress or business specialist. I would absolutely love to interview Christina, and discuss how the concept for these videos came to be, and moreover-was she responsible for production or hired in for this creative content. In contrast to herein, another awesome video and epic usable information. Would be double brilliant to write ✍️ an article about Christina in the near future. Iconic public figure… M. CLARKSTAR

was a very helpful video it gave me some very good pointers .

Tell me about yourself means I tell them my skills that pertain to the job description. My personal life is not their business.

When I get that stupid question I simply reply with “can you be more specific?”

My response is, "What would you like to know?" Seems to work okay!

Good video💕💕💕💕EXCELLENCE

when they ask them i bring in the expert. you have to say yaassss every so often. just work it into your work interview

the "tell me about yourself" music is hilarious. Captures the dread!

Don't you think that it is not fair. Interviewer asks " tell me about yourself " we do. When we ask interviewer " tell me about yourself" No no it is not right. We should read about company and interviewer before it.

@KrisKringle2

Жыл бұрын

Very often the company, or interviewer, isn't concerned about being fair. Then you have to ask yourself, is the benefit to working at this place great enough to put up with the unfairness and work to make sure (and/or hope) you have the freedom to make that choice.

It’s an easy question

Can anyone please tell me what the effect is called in 12 to 13 seconds in? Haha 😂😂

When the interviewer hasn’t read the resume…

Dream i wish i would never happened to me

what's the deal? it's the best question ever. it's equal to "tell me what you want to tell me", and gives you opportunity to reveal yourself outside the bounds of the interviewer's questions, which could be none of what you want him to know. it's like getting a headstart in a race

Harvard Business Review: so why should we hire you? Me: Wuut? Because you guys are hiring. Harvard Business Review: That's not an acceptable answer. Me: You know what? why should I accept this position? Harvard Business Review: What? Me: Yeah, why is this position open? Do people keep quitting? Harvard Business Review: Umm Me: why are people quitting this job? Is there something I should know? Harvard Business Review: fill the blank

Music and effects are super annoying

The whole interview thing is more of a - can you act well enough to make the interviewer believe you? Everything you say- you are supposed to have prepared beforehand, meaning you are your CV and Cover Letter but instead of it being read by them, it's read by you from your mind, to them. That's literally what it is. I find interviews stupid. Get people to sit with you and have a real natural conversation to actually get to know them, not something that was over-rehearsed multiple times. I understand it's nice to be prepared and to show you have taken the time to prepare, but isn't that why the CV and CL are for?
