ArmadilloLover99 “that I deserve a raise”, if they laugh, after they laugh tell an actual answer, if they don’t laugh immediately tell the the actual answer
It's not what you do, it's how you phrase it. "I just go on the internet." - I participate in media outlets that allow me to increase my social life "I play video games." - I enjoy electronic arts that stimulate the primal human emotions of survival. "I watch other idiots play video games." - I study others like myself on similar online outlets as both enjoyment and hopes of furthering my own skills.
Same here. I'm laughing my fucking ass of at this because it's so true. I had an interview as a washing up assistant and I couldn't even get that even though I said exactly what bullshit they wanted to hear. Supermarkets are the worst. They get you to do a questionnaire before even sending your CV.
I once had a Work experience in a grocery store and I am not ashamed to admit that nearly everything on my CV was complete Bullsh*t. I said stuff like: I am good in math and I like working with people. Only problem with that was, I am the complete opposite!
Zyxiel Martin The problem with jobs now a days is that in order to find one, you literally must know a person that works at place that's capable and trustworthy into handing your resume to the manager so that you can get the fucking interview and possibly hope for the best. I was at an interview once and the questions they fucking ask are ridiculous. The amount of bullshit I said during the interview was unbelievable, at the end he fucking let out a huge sigh, shook my hand and was like "thank you for coming" never got a call back.
WaffleSyrupGuy yup that's why I lost my innocent attitude towards society and started doing shit my way . never going back to that , and I'm not putting my life in the hands of any company they can eat a dick . I'm building my own.

the best advice from this is not to take it soo seriously. As an introvert just the thought of being alone in a room with someone sucks, but its really not bad, and honesty can help more than you think ;)
I couldn’t be bothered to actually do it so pretend I drew the s symbol (the super symbol that’s the family crest of the supers aka superman and supergirl)
The first one is bad because because they expect you to know 1000000% about their company already. You can ask that AFTER you've got the job though NOBODY CARES THEN.
This dude hit the nail on the head. They ask you all, these BS questions, when the only thing you care about is the money....seriously. I hate interviews. They really suck.
Then half or more than half of the workforce wouldn't have gotten the job because most people work in places they don't want nor are really passionate about. But I guarantee employers don't know that but they think that.
omg the second to last thing you said happened to me at a scholarship interview! They said: do you have any questions for us? And I'm like erm... (in my mind) how much are y'all giving me? *didn't know what to say*

OMG I haven't laughed so hard as to warrant wiping tears from my face in a while. "I just sit around on my laptop, play video games, then get on the internet to watch other idiots play video games." LOL
You are right. I recently had that kind of interview for a technician job, even they asked me what was my biggest achievement/contribution on past jobs, a tough question GradeA should have added to the video. To sum it all up, I finished the interview quite well, with high expectations. Even they told me about their weekly service schedule, but it was the last thing I knew from them. At the end of the day, the guy who has relations inside a job, will always be preferred.
An interviewer asked me: "What do you enjoy?" I replied: "I like pina coladas, and getting caught in the rain. I'm not into Yoga, and I have half of a brain..."
Arrow -Think Critical- You got the job right?I made the mistake of replying to that question with:"Kung Fu Fighting."Karate chopped the guys neck in the middle of the song.
Arrow -Think Critical That is to good. I have to wonder though did the guy really like the way you sang the song or did the woman sing something else? My guess she was singing Straight out of Compton. Hahahahaha!!
+Arrow In Eye I responded with, "I kissed a girl, and I liked it. The taste of her cherry chapstick. Hope my boyfreind don't mind it." I got rejected XDD
Came here by accident but after watching this video and thinking over the questions that you brought up, i actually got the job on my first job interview! Thanks a bunch and you are awesome! :D
SuperMarkomario :O I HELPED!!!! Lol if you're serious, that's *awesome* man! See? Keep watching my videos and good stuff will happen :p Btw, don't mean to bring this up publically, but you kinda owe a slice of your salary...for the rest of your life. When am I getting my cut, SuperMarkomario? The 1st of every month sound good to you?
+GradeAUnderA I tried your guide to let's see if I get the job. but I really don't like this question ( what are your qualities ) and you got to be honest and can't say actually that I am a lazy piece of crap sometimes because it's looked down on so I had to lie. I told em I am an active member in the sports community. thank you grade
+Muur schuur Actually, some companies appreciate lazy people because: "A lazy person finds an easier way to do it." But to find an employer who has educated themselves about this is really hard to find...
+Richard Roberts The idea behind this is to find algorithms that work without clutter. Especially in programming. Especially where space is a concern. But also elsewhere. Find the guy who gets the job done with minimum effort if you want the direct approach. If you want a worker that does more because you want work done, don't get a lazy person. But if you want to find a way to optimize your workflow, get a lazy person because he'll find out that things are easier if the printer isn't downstairs. Or that you could strap a car engine to the drill because it's faster. Or shit like that. For instance, I've had a piss job once where my task was to input patterns to a laser engraver so the laser knew where to write what number, etc. There was a workflow I had to follow with preset shapes for the metal pieces to put in the engraver and documents with preset formatting to be filled out, matching the shapes. Initially, I followed the procedure step by step and manually typed in stuff and double-checked to minimize errors because they would cost the company money. I was a good worker. Then after a while the routine kicked in and I got lazy. I didn't want to type shit in over and over, so I thought of a way to shortcut that. I put in the extra bit of work to understand the program and then experimented a bit to find a way so I could just type stuff in once and it would fill itself out. Also, I fucking hated the loading times, so I reduced them by restructuring the patterns so they'd load faster. I also found optimal engraving settings for the materials so the laser would simply do its job 4x faster with the same result. That way, I could do my workload and then chill and do other shit instead of waiting there patiently to type in the next command. Needless to say, I got fired because the company had to cut personnel cost. Lol. But yeah, that's what he means. You need to know if you want work or a result.
3:31 this EXACT thing happened to me. I got hired 5 months ago to a company I don’t give a shit about. I worked for their prime competitor 3 years prior and figured if they ever called me back with a better offer I’d gladly betray the new job. Fast forward to present day where my old job offered me higher pay with full time benefits so of course I turned traitor and put my 2 weeks notice in because all I care about is the money and power.
Yea. Job employers really dont understand human nature like all people do is lie on interviewers to get the job but they see it all honestly cause their so closed off to hpw normal working class people function
I remember when our parents used to say that getting a job meant simply walking into any place and asking to apply politely and they'd usually respond with "When do you wanna start?". Now a days this generation is fucked.
You mean actually having to be checked if you can do the damn job means this generation is fucked?! Well I guess this generation _is_ fucked if people like you are in it!
+Billy Linburg I'm capable of every job I ever applied to, because that's my requirement for applying for them in the first place, yet I'm still here, jobless.
I doubt Grade or anyone else will read this. It'll just get lost in the comment section but every now and then I come back to this video. The first time I saw this video was in 2015. A girl I was really attached to dumped me. I had no job. No drivers license. No car. Left college for a bit. Has nothing going on. But watching Grade's videos helped me through this time. Made me laugh. Made me realize I can do a lot more. Well, today in 2023, I'm doing way better. Went back and at least got my associates degree. Have a clean driving record with a nice car. A caring girlfriend. A nice job with my own work truck, route and customers. And now an interview for a government job working with the county. I never imagined ever having even these things but yet here they are. From a loser working as a sign waiver wearing a ridiculous costume. To potentially a maintenance man working with the county making great pay with excellent benefits. So thank you so much Grade for not only making me laugh, but for giving me the confidence to do better and continue doing better. I just hope wherever you are in life, you're good as well.
Your probably not gonna respond but this comment is beautiful man. I miss this era of TH-cam so god damn much you have no idea. When content creators didn't have to obey an algorithm and could speak their mind grade was my favourite TH-camr back when TH-cam was like this.
@@biggnesss7192thanks for your kind words. Yea. I also miss this era. 2006-2015 was in my opinion the golden age of TH-cam. We will never see anything like it again.
"where do you see yourself in 5 years´s time" is such a stupid question. how the fuck do i know? i´m not a fortune-teller, don´t have a magical ball nor do i see into the future
My favourite answer to "where do you see yourself in 5 years" question. In your job. Supposedly back in the 80s this was a really ballsy answer and could propel you to the top of the candidates list or absolutely tank you. Nowadays I'm just so practiced in the "right" answers to interview questions I can race through them in my sleep. But I think these days outside of inexperienced interviewers, they know the "correct" answers that are on every jobseeker messageboard and they're looking for people a little less robotic. At least in the tech world they welcome more ballsy answers. Like "where do you see yourself in 5 years" maybe not as ballsy as "in your job" but not as safe as "continuing to be a team player in this position". I like something like "if not in management in a well defined path to management" it shows ambition but not blind ambition. It shows you're realistic but at the same time ambitious and not afraid to work hard to get what you want.
Hey, I told one of my bosses that during my interview. He laughed, hired me on the spot, and gave me an extra $2.50 an hour, on top of what the job was paying. That was late 90s though. You can't do that now. They consider it a death threat.
The company I currently work for sends all candidates into interviews with 3 managers, and who gets the job is based on consensus. In my case, I was the unanimous choice. I later found out why each manager chose me: The group manager didn't care about the answers to the bullshit questions, he picked the guy with the most energy and pizzazz. The accounting manager didn't care about the answers, he picked the guy who took the shortest time answering them. The HR manager didn't care about the interview at all, she picked me because my C.V. was properly formatted, and the resume-scanner program filled in all my fields correctly, and she hates typing shit in manually.
Serious? I hope I get managers like that when I get a job I remember some practise interviews and they're all fucking bullshit "what skills do you have" i dont fucking know i can 360 no scope fgts on cod
“Alright, Where do you see yourself in five years time?” Grade: “Hopefully not still in this shithole” 2020: *I wouldn’t say free,just under new management* 2:08
hahaha, dude you reminded me of an interview. the manager asked me where do i see myself in 5 years. i said, sitting in your chair doing your job. he almost shit himself and only calmed down after i explained that he would be promoted by then.
My sister use to work at a residents place. with people who are mentally disabled live. And one of the questions were 'If you were on a raft and it could only fit two people. And a dog and a person was in the water. Which one would you save.'' They had to ask that because if there was a fire they wanted to make sure the person would save all the residents first and not the animals. And apparently people actually answered that they would save the dog in the water and not the human.
if you rescued the dog you are clearly a filthy misanthropist and should be outcasted from the business world (disclaimer: this is a joke, don't actually take it seriously)
Is this true cause if so Im going to have a heck of a time getting a job thats all I say "Hi how are you doing? Sorry I forgot to stick that broom up my backside" (that last part was a joke)
Lol funny thing my brother went for a job interview and answered honestly to all these questions and he got the job because he made the interviewer laugh really hard 😂
Interviewer: "Why do you want to work for this company?" Guy: "From the age of just 6 months old, all I ever wanted to do was work at the fantabulous wondermental place of supreme joyous delight that is packing whatever the fuck it is you make into flimsy cardboard boxes and shoving them in a van. I wake up every morning with childish glee, basking in the hope that maybe one day I too will get to work in your monumentally divine business where I will fulfill my lifelong dream of wearing your shit uniforms and working questionable shifts for debatable salary". Strangely enough in every place I've worked, there's always been at least one person who seems to truly 'believe' in the company in that way. Dude, you work in fucking B&Q, stop getting emotional over the friggin' paint mixing station and treating Halfords as your sworn nemesis, I couldn't give a shit if we sold an all time record number of lightbulbs as long as my paycheck comes in.
5:45 A good go to that I use because it "shows that you actively work to improve yourself" (both in the BS sense, and honest sense) Is: "If I were to not get this position, is there anything I could work on to better myself in other interviews?" It is a gamble, but if you ask it sincerely and confidently, it can help. Ask it without that, and you sound like you've already accepted that they've turned you down, and they won't call.
omfg Im in tears from laughing so hard... "That Im sexy as fuc%" funny as hell........Ive subbed so quick... Got here from looking at the Vegan Gains video. You are epic
the best way to answer “what’s your weakness?” is actually to honestly say a weakness but to also share what you do about it. e.g. “i am often late, which is why i take extra effort to plan ahead so i don’t get tripped up by unforeseen events”
@@DodgyDaveGTX not necessarily. if you were at the interview on time, you have proof that you have taken practical steps to not be late and they have been effective. if you’re trying to make an excuse for being late, then no, it won’t work.
"So tell me about a weakness of yours?" "Oh my god, where to start?" "I'm late all the time, I'm antisocial, I hate people, I like doing this all the time, I'm a racist, I'm a pervert, a sexual harasser..." I love that part
In my job interview he asked me a question about what I wanted to do in the future job or school wise and I started talking and paused for like 8 seconds drawing a complete blank. I didn't even say "Uhm." I just kind of stared. I'm amazed I even got the job.
What is considered by most applicants as a big problem is usually irrelevant. The interviewer has usually had 10 other people before you of whom one didn't speak the local language, two threatened to kill him and another shat himself and commented on it. And then there's you blanking for a couple of seconds.
+Anne Frank Lol the job interviewer asked you what you wanted your future job to be? How about "I'm hoping to do this job... that I'm interviewing for right now..... "
This video is brilliant. I have dealt with so many failed interviews and gotten fired over stupid shit, and now I am back on the job hunt, because making you tube videos doesn't pay. Wish me luck. lol. I will take your advice though and see if it helps me.

If anyone here is looking to get their first job, I have a few tips. As a professional job-getter-then-quitting-after-a-weeker I've gone to many interviews and have been accepted for a lot of entry-level jobs. Here's what I can say about some of the most common stuff. Tip #1 Attire: Black slacks, black loafers (Or whatever dress shoes you have), button up dress shirt, and tie. Brush your fucking teeth btw. Dress for the job you want. Not the shitty $9/hr K-Mart job you need. Tip #2 Facial hair: I have a beard. I have a very nice beard. Keep it well kept and places will not have a problem with you having it so long as the job isn't involved with food. Tip #3 HANDSHAKE: Shake their hand shake their hand shake their hand shake their hand. Firm grip. Three seconds. Up, down. Introduce yourself during. You're done. Don't make it awkward for you or them. Scenario: Manager: "Hello! Are you here for the 10:30 interview?" You: "Hello! *Reaches out and shakes hand* Yes, my name is -TH-cam User-" Tip #4 The dreaded "Do you have any questions for us?" I hate when companies ask this, but a two lines I always use that puts a smile on their face: "What would an average day on the job look like?" or "What is the nature of the job?" They love this. After they answer they're look back at you and ask "Any more questions?" to this I respond with "Not that I can think of right now. You've explained everything perfectly" If anyone has any questions, please let me know and I'll do my best to try and help. Happy interviewing!
I'm only 14 but this acctualy looks like it will help me in the future despite the fact I want to be self employed game maker. so thank you 1 question. should you ever be honest
Alexander Shearer Hey, great goal for your future, you must be really passionate about it, huh? Good on you! I'd recommend getting at least a part time job to work and support yourself while you work on the games, but I have no doubt you already had that planned. To answer your question - yes, you should be honest. But stretch the truth as much as needed. An example of this I have is when discussing my previous experiences. I used to work in a garden shop, and I was a substitute supervisor for a few days while my manager was out in the hospital. So I stretch the truth by saying something like "I was a manager for a time and in charge of 7 people while the regular manager was in a coma." Neglecting to mention the length of time this happened. Also, I have never once been asked to "name one of your biggest weaknesses". But if I was asked to, I would say something along the lines of "I get a deep feeling of regret if I fail a project and will feel rather unnerved unless I am able to accomplish the task in the next attempt.".
+Patrick Riley ok thank you! so be honest but twist the truth to your favor. got it. and I did plan to have part time jobs. thank you for answering my question :D
Nice to know this bullshit isn't limited to my shitty country. You gotta love it when they have all these high profile questions but the job you're applying for involves standing behind a counter and smiling or something equally menial. "Do you have any special skills that might help with this position?". Like... what? Yeah, totally. I've spent loads of time smiling and standing behind counters. I'm sure my 20 years of self defense training will make me perfect for this position. I mean wtf do they even expect you to say? LoL.
My brother went for a job in a supermarket, stacking shelves, and they genuinely gave him a psychometric test to fill in online. One of the questions was something like: A customer comes into the store and the item that he wants is out of stock. Do you: A. Apologise and offer a similar product. B. Call around the local stores to see if they have the product in stock. C. Throw things at him.
Just wore a suit for a factory job i applied for. They took me on a tour and every single person looked at me like i was a moron. I should hear from them next week. Wish me luck bros
I've done that way too many times. At the same time l, though, I always worry that if I don't dress up for an interview, I'll look lazy and unprofessional.
Look them straight in the eyes, works for me everytime. If you cant do it just look at the nose and think about the joint you will be smoking after the interview.
I don't know why but the "uhh" at 4:02 just sounds perfect and it perfectly illustrates that it is what we actually want to say when we don't know what to say.
Nah, he was very depressed for a while and he made a comedy video talking about how anti-depressants actually don't help. He also said he has gotten over his depression and is back to making videos!
Easiest solution... once you DO get a job, work your way to the place where you conduct the interviews, and make sure you don't do any of that stupid shit you hate. That's what I did! Also... I really love GradeAUnderA's outro song... what is it?
First time I did an interview they asked what the people from my last place would say about me and I literally said "I don't know, you'd have to ask them" I still got accepted, but I'm sure by a small margin. Probably because I passed the hobby question like a pro.
"What would your co-workers say about you?"

How are they gonna see who you really are if they don't know who are to begin with? It's like a teacher giving a random boy off the street a pop quiz without his identity or other information being established.
"Where do you see yourself in 5 years?"
"Still watching this goddamn video"
when they ask me if I have any questions I say "when do I start?"
I got hired by the way, they said they liked my "confidence and sense of humour" or some shit like that.
I asked "how many seconds will it be before I regret being honest in this interview?" he replied 1 and then I was kicked out.

You are right. I recently had that kind of interview for a technician job, even they asked me what was my biggest achievement/contribution on past jobs, a tough question GradeA should have added to the video. To sum it all up, I finished the interview quite well, with high expectations. Even they told me about their weekly service schedule, but it was the last thing I knew from them. At the end of the day, the guy who has relations inside a job, will always be preferred.

+Muur schuur Actually, some companies appreciate lazy people because: "A lazy person finds an easier way to do it." But to find an employer who has educated themselves about this is really hard to find...
+Hyena12 Nah that's just a lazy persons excuse, in my experience lazy people just do the bare minimum which usually equates to shit work.
+Richard Roberts
The idea behind this is to find algorithms that work without clutter. Especially in programming. Especially where space is a concern. But also elsewhere. Find the guy who gets the job done with minimum effort if you want the direct approach.
If you want a worker that does more because you want work done, don't get a lazy person. But if you want to find a way to optimize your workflow, get a lazy person because he'll find out that things are easier if the printer isn't downstairs. Or that you could strap a car engine to the drill because it's faster. Or shit like that.
For instance, I've had a piss job once where my task was to input patterns to a laser engraver so the laser knew where to write what number, etc. There was a workflow I had to follow with preset shapes for the metal pieces to put in the engraver and documents with preset formatting to be filled out, matching the shapes. Initially, I followed the procedure step by step and manually typed in stuff and double-checked to minimize errors because they would cost the company money. I was a good worker.
Then after a while the routine kicked in and I got lazy. I didn't want to type shit in over and over, so I thought of a way to shortcut that. I put in the extra bit of work to understand the program and then experimented a bit to find a way so I could just type stuff in once and it would fill itself out. Also, I fucking hated the loading times, so I reduced them by restructuring the patterns so they'd load faster. I also found optimal engraving settings for the materials so the laser would simply do its job 4x faster with the same result.
That way, I could do my workload and then chill and do other shit instead of waiting there patiently to type in the next command.
Needless to say, I got fired because the company had to cut personnel cost. Lol. But yeah, that's what he means. You need to know if you want work or a result.
"What do you know about our company?"
"That you've got a job going..."

3:31 this EXACT thing happened to me. I got hired 5 months ago to a company I don’t give a shit about.

Fast forward to present day where my old job offered me higher pay with full time benefits so of course I turned traitor and put my 2 weeks notice in because all I care about is the money and power.

I doubt Grade or anyone else will read this. It'll just get lost in the comment section but every now and then I come back to this video. The first time I saw this video was in 2015. A girl I was really attached to dumped me. I had no job. No drivers license. No car. Left college for a bit. Has nothing going on. But watching Grade's videos helped me through this time. Made me laugh. Made me realize I can do a lot more.
Well, today in 2023, I'm doing way better. Went back and at least got my associates degree. Have a clean driving record with a nice car. A caring girlfriend. A nice job with my own work truck, route and customers. And now an interview for a government job working with the county. I never imagined ever having even these things but yet here they are. From a loser working as a sign waiver wearing a ridiculous costume. To potentially a maintenance man working with the county making great pay with excellent benefits. So thank you so much Grade for not only making me laugh, but for giving me the confidence to do better and continue doing better. I just hope wherever you are in life, you're good as well.

They want someone good at lying. But if you lie, then you're not trustworthy.
Lose-lose either way.
Unless you go into the military. In which case, you *really* need to be trustworthy.
Or is this a word
If you are good at lying they wont know
My favourite answer to "where do you see yourself in 5 years" question. In your job. Supposedly back in the 80s this was a really ballsy answer and could propel you to the top of the candidates list or absolutely tank you. Nowadays I'm just so practiced in the "right" answers to interview questions I can race through them in my sleep. But I think these days outside of inexperienced interviewers, they know the "correct" answers that are on every jobseeker messageboard and they're looking for people a little less robotic. At least in the tech world they welcome more ballsy answers. Like "where do you see yourself in 5 years" maybe not as ballsy as "in your job" but not as safe as "continuing to be a team player in this position". I like something like "if not in management in a well defined path to management" it shows ambition but not blind ambition. It shows you're realistic but at the same time ambitious and not afraid to work hard to get what you want.
Why am I so confused, yet I completely understand this?
Thyri Carver fuck off m8

You apparently gave one enough to read and comment. So one read and one comment... I'd call that 2 shits.
Hey, I told one of my bosses that during my interview. He laughed, hired me on the spot, and gave me an extra $2.50 an hour, on top of what the job was paying. That was late 90s though. You can't do that now. They consider it a death threat.
The company I currently work for sends all candidates into interviews with 3 managers, and who gets the job is based on consensus. In my case, I was the unanimous choice. I later found out why each manager chose me:
The group manager didn't care about the answers to the bullshit questions, he picked the guy with the most energy and pizzazz.
The accounting manager didn't care about the answers, he picked the guy who took the shortest time answering them.
The HR manager didn't care about the interview at all, she picked me because my C.V. was properly formatted, and the resume-scanner program filled in all my fields correctly, and she hates typing shit in manually.

My sister use to work at a residents place. with people who are mentally disabled live. And one of the questions were 'If you were on a raft and it could only fit two people. And a dog and a person was in the water. Which one would you save.'' They had to ask that because if there was a fire they wanted to make sure the person would save all the residents first and not the animals. And apparently people actually answered that they would save the dog in the water and not the human.
Damn. I lost the job then.

I would save the person then the dog. There is space for 2. 1 person and a dog.

A good go to that I use because it "shows that you actively work to improve yourself" (both in the BS sense, and honest sense) Is:
"If I were to not get this position, is there anything I could work on to better myself in other interviews?"
It is a gamble, but if you ask it sincerely and confidently, it can help. Ask it without that, and you sound like you've already accepted that they've turned you down, and they won't call.

the best way to answer “what’s your weakness?” is actually to honestly say a weakness but to also share what you do about it.
e.g. “i am often late, which is why i take extra effort to plan ahead so i don’t get tripped up by unforeseen events”
"I often get tripped up by unforeseen events, so I bought new shoelaces"
Ye but the term “i am often late” is a guaranteed way to fumble the interview
@@DodgyDaveGTX not necessarily. if you were at the interview on time, you have proof that you have taken practical steps to not be late and they have been effective.
if you’re trying to make an excuse for being late, then no, it won’t work.
"So tell me about a weakness of yours?"
"Oh my god, where to start?"
"I'm late all the time, I'm antisocial, I hate people, I like doing this all the time, I'm a racist, I'm a pervert, a sexual harasser..."
I love that part
"Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" Nobody expected the actual current situation
In my job interview he asked me a question about what I wanted to do in the future job or school wise and I started talking and paused for like 8 seconds drawing a complete blank. I didn't even say "Uhm." I just kind of stared. I'm amazed I even got the job.
What is considered by most applicants as a big problem is usually irrelevant. The interviewer has usually had 10 other people before you of whom one didn't speak the local language, two threatened to kill him and another shat himself and commented on it. And then there's you blanking for a couple of seconds.

Grade has great taste
If anyone here is looking to get their first job, I have a few tips. As a professional job-getter-then-quitting-after-a-weeker I've gone to many interviews and have been accepted for a lot of entry-level jobs. Here's what I can say about some of the most common stuff.
Tip #1 Attire: Black slacks, black loafers (Or whatever dress shoes you have), button up dress shirt, and tie. Brush your fucking teeth btw. Dress for the job you want. Not the shitty $9/hr K-Mart job you need.
Tip #2 Facial hair: I have a beard. I have a very nice beard. Keep it well kept and places will not have a problem with you having it so long as the job isn't involved with food.
Tip #3 HANDSHAKE: Shake their hand shake their hand shake their hand shake their hand. Firm grip. Three seconds. Up, down. Introduce yourself during. You're done. Don't make it awkward for you or them.
Scenario: Manager: "Hello! Are you here for the 10:30 interview?" You: "Hello! *Reaches out and shakes hand* Yes, my name is -TH-cam User-"
Tip #4 The dreaded "Do you have any questions for us?" I hate when companies ask this, but a two lines I always use that puts a smile on their face: "What would an average day on the job look like?" or "What is the nature of the job?" They love this.
After they answer they're look back at you and ask "Any more questions?" to this I respond with "Not that I can think of right now. You've explained everything perfectly"
If anyone has any questions, please let me know and I'll do my best to try and help.
Happy interviewing!
I'm only 14 but this acctualy looks like it will help me in the future despite the fact I want to be self employed game maker. so thank you
1 question. should you ever be honest
Alexander Shearer Hey, great goal for your future, you must be really passionate about it, huh? Good on you! I'd recommend getting at least a part time job to work and support yourself while you work on the games, but I have no doubt you already had that planned.
To answer your question - yes, you should be honest. But stretch the truth as much as needed.
An example of this I have is when discussing my previous experiences. I used to work in a garden shop, and I was a substitute supervisor for a few days while my manager was out in the hospital. So I stretch the truth by saying something like "I was a manager for a time and in charge of 7 people while the regular manager was in a coma." Neglecting to mention the length of time this happened.
Also, I have never once been asked to "name one of your biggest weaknesses". But if I was asked to, I would say something along the lines of "I get a deep feeling of regret if I fail a project and will feel rather unnerved unless I am able to accomplish the task in the next attempt.".
+Patrick Riley ok thank you! so be honest but twist the truth to your favor. got it. and I did plan to have part time jobs. thank you for answering my question :D
+Alexander Shearer That's exactly it, you've got it down perfectly! My pleasure being of help! Good luck with your future!
+Patrick Riley so,sitting on your arse and watching a video is considered a job?
Nice to know this bullshit isn't limited to my shitty country. You gotta love it when they have all these high profile questions but the job you're applying for involves standing behind a counter and smiling or something equally menial. "Do you have any special skills that might help with this position?". Like... what? Yeah, totally. I've spent loads of time smiling and standing behind counters. I'm sure my 20 years of self defense training will make me perfect for this position. I mean wtf do they even expect you to say? LoL.
My brother went for a job in a supermarket, stacking shelves, and they genuinely gave him a psychometric test to fill in online. One of the questions was something like:
A customer comes into the store and the item that he wants is out of stock. Do you:
A. Apologise and offer a similar product.
B. Call around the local stores to see if they have the product in stock.
C. Throw things at him.
LemonZeppelin “C” LMFAO
2015 grade: hopefully I won the lottery
2020: I don’t think so
maybe thats why he quit?
probs did
Just wore a suit for a factory job i applied for. They took me on a tour and every single person looked at me like i was a moron. I should hear from them next week. Wish me luck bros
Well i didnt get it. Word is i overdressed
Haha
well
I've done that way too many times. At the same time l, though, I always worry that if I don't dress up for an interview, I'll look lazy and unprofessional.
Look them straight in the eyes, works for me everytime. If you cant do it just look at the nose and think about the joint you will be smoking after the interview.
don't look for too long... too long gets uncomfortable. you gotta break eye contact for at least a half second every once in a while lol
The Dominator True
+The Spiffing Brit They have shoes in their eyes?
Lmao I can never make eye contact.
try a triangle of eye contact from the eyes with the point being the forehead
I got a job interview tomorrow. This going to be so helpful, cheers Grade.
+Rumble Fish good luck then
+Rumble Fish how did it go ?
+Riveriux Phenom Got it
Rumble Fish No kidding?! Congratulations mate.
Riveriux Phenom Cheers, mate.
Interviewer:Where do you see yourself in 5 years time
Me:
It's been 5 years
I don't know why but the "uhh" at 4:02 just sounds perfect and it perfectly illustrates that it is what we actually want to say when we don't know what to say.
I don't know if he won the lottery but he's back and talking about drugs.
Nah, he was very depressed for a while and he made a comedy video talking about how anti-depressants actually don't help. He also said he has gotten over his depression and is back to making videos!
Baconeater5000 Craddock hate to be that guy, but it was a joke.
@@RancidKari A better way to say that is, r/whoosh.
@@RancidKari whoops, that definitely is an r/whoosh moment. I thought he was actually curious lol
@@CadenPlays5000 do grade is not back?
Miss this old GradeAUnderA
"Where do you see yourself in five years time?"
Um, in Earth, where else?
ItsEgbert I see myself in my room fucking a body pillow in 5 years because I got mind controlled by weeaboos
PIERCESTORM PRODUCTIONS Then I mind control you
Joshua Nolasco #PenguinSquad you are a weeb? DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUUUUUUN
If Grade A said it: "I see myself in earth for fuck sakes! Where else would i be? Fucking Venus?"
IN earth. well shit best start digging
"What would your co-workers say about you?"
'THE _____ YOU ASKING ME FOR!?"
That killed me
1:16 "Can't get a job unless you talk like you got a broom stuck up your arse.......so shove a broom up your arse!"
I almost died there! :D :D
Me too. I then rewinded and died again
goals
+pullupbartender So you're saying that you died, then came back to life as a zombie, then died again permanently or are you a ghost now?
+Brandon Silva When they say I Died from a funny joke it means that they laughed a lot.
+Brandon Silva he ALMOST DIED
03:51 Can you imagine a job interview ending like that?
Easiest solution... once you DO get a job, work your way to the place where you conduct the interviews, and make sure you don't do any of that stupid shit you hate.
That's what I did!
Also... I really love GradeAUnderA's outro song... what is it?
His outro song is "The Laughing Policeman" chorus part.
Darude- Sandstorm.
DeutscherHanfVerband Fan stop
The Laughing Policeman :D
DeutscherHanfVerband Fan fuck off
These videos are honestly timeless
First time I did an interview they asked what the people from my last place would say about me and I literally said "I don't know, you'd have to ask them" I still got accepted, but I'm sure by a small margin. Probably because I passed the hobby question like a pro.
I'm currently in the process of job hunting and I swear to god no other video on the planet is as relatable to me rn as this one.
3:38 lmao grade made trump memes before it was cool xD
ƝƁƘ Kami it makes him OG
yo boi i watch ur vids XD
You clearly haven't heard of a little show called "The Apprentice".
ƝƁƘ Kami p
No, it wasn't a meme because it wasn't overused with very poor comedic execution and/or intent before, which is required for something to be a meme.
"Why should we hire you?"
"Because you're hiring."
