i guess Im randomly asking but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
Thanks so much kind stranger!
Do we shake their hands ?
I have the worst interview anxiety. I get so terrified that it affects how I perform. I will definitely apply these into my interview practices!!
Same, no matter how much potential i have, my introvert tendencies manage to overshadow it
The more you practice, the better off you are going to be!
Unfortunately, it came to my attention that many companies have been taking discriminatory actions against people who suffer from anxiety and depression - some companies are strictly avoiding hiring people who might display these conditions because they don’t want the office to become a “therapy place”, not to mention several misconceptions about inclusion, socialization and the performance of such employees. I myself was let go from a job, after showing signs of depression. Truth is, our mental state is none of their business and we should be very aware of that not to let them get any clues or this could backfire. I’m sorry to hear about your struggles, I hope it’s nothing too serious. Get well!
I am in the middle of searching for an internship and this video couldn't have come at a better time😊
Same here!
same! :)
Good luck 🍀
😏 I can feel an interview coming already
Good luck to you!
When asking about your limitation/weakness say something not related to the role. For example if the you are in an interview for an accounting role say that your weakness is in presentation skills. Avoid saying that your imitation its perfectionism.
Thanks for sharing your insight
Hi, Jamila. Could you please make a video about how to deal with nasty people you are forced to interact with? I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your help. 🖤
I will note it down☺️
omg that would be sooo handy
Much needed
Oh. I um, yeah that's a tough one!
Omg yes
As always, all of those tips are very helpful! One tip that I always found useful was the STAR method when asked a behavioural question(s), such as: "Tell us a time you faced a challenge/adapted to change"
I always use the STAR method to make an organized answer. STAR stands for: situation, task, action, and result. Through this you can give the interviewer a clearer picture of what you did to handle the problems.
Also, one video that I'd love to see is a networking etiquette video. Often, I found myself hesitating when joining a networking event, since I'm too "careful" of my behaviour and then I miss the opportunity to join in the conversation.
Lots of love from Canada!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I will look into that ☺️
For those who don't know, "Jamila" in arabic means "Beautiful", keep up the good work bella ❤
I know my sister's name is Jamila
@@MsAreejali it's my mother's name too ❤
Thank you, habibti ☺️

I have done 2 internships in HR and I agree 💯 with each and every point in this video, HR's actually do check these points -Eye contact, hand movements and gestures while talking, dress code, carrying extra CV copies, overall hygiene, how confident you are while talking about what work you have done in your previous companies, how much understanding you have about the business the company is into for which you are being interviewed. I have seen people being outright rejected by my seniors just because they didn't carry a extra CV or were not dressed right or were good on paper but couldn't convey that during the interview.
Another really helpful video for people who are looking out for jobs.👍🏻
Also I forgot adding one more point, the length of your CV shouldn't be more than 2 pages because lenghty CV's are a huge turn off to be honest.
Thank you for sharing these points. Regarding the length of the CV- absolutely true- no more than 2 pages.
And i have seen tons of below average ppl getting hired desipite not dressing up well, not competent, rude etc etc. It is abt luck and taste of ppl. Nobody cares abt u if they dont like u
As an introvert this video is what I needed
I was just despairing over how unprepared I feel entering the work force again and this helped me feel better prepared ❣️
All the best of luck to you! 🙏🏻
It would be helpful if you could make a video on how to make an outstanding CV.
Thank you.
Noted ☺️
Being an HR Senior professional I find this as the most relevant video for all candidates. Brilliant madam, god bless
Thank you very much!
I am graduating college next week and am applying for my first "career" job soon. Im terrified but videos like this are comforting. I want to be a college professor someday so im applying for my first teaching assistant job, I really, really hope I get it. I'll be sure to dress "up" for the interview
Update if anyone is curious, I got the job!
Good luck!
All the best😊
Congratulations 🎊, welcome to our world. You will definitely excel.
Good luck to you! Keep your head and spirits up! 🤞
Nice job, Jamila. As an azerbaijani, I'm proud of you.
Thank you!
she's effortlessly classy, i love it! you can't buy class.
Thank you 😊 🙏🏻
Your voice is like melting sugar. I can listen to it for hours ❤️🌸
Thank you!
Truee that!
For Latin America specially in Mexico the proper way is have the heands visible.
Found your channel yesterday and ended up binge-watching all of the videos! Keeping bringing these amazing informative videos. You go girl🔥 Much love ❤❤
Myself, recently found it out.. Watched and enjoyed almost all the videos
Thank you 🙏🏻
You are so inspiring big respect ✊🏻
Thank you! 🙏🏻
@@JamilaMusayeva are you from Azerbaijan?
This is so so useful!
This is really good advice. But it depends on the culture in every country. For example, where I live, there is a culture of corruption and ''who you know'/who you are related to' in order to get the job. I personally have 3 college degrees and speak 3 languages but I was never able to get a job (and I'm 36), because even in the private sector the rules mentioned above apply (private companies have a ''recommendations'' policy, meaning that if an employee refers a friend who is less qualified, that friend has a higher change of being employed that someone who is perfectly qualified but no one from the inside recommends them). However, I managed to create my own small business (I was forced, in order to survive) and I managed to live decently but I can't afford to buy a home, for instance (then again, not many people do). I like what I do, it's an intellectual job, and I won all my clients (companies) because I'm competent (I've never even met the people, we only talk by phone/email or PM software). No company would survive if it hired only incompetent people, someone has to actually work.
Thank you so much for these great advice
Omg Jamila you are making videos so fast lately!! Goals! ^_^
Thank you so much for sharing this video. I have noted this tips . Thank you.
This video is so insightful. Thank you for this.
Love you love you love you! Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us!
finally found a video that actually provides tips without making me anxious. this is a great channel!
Wow this was amazing. Can't wait to use this advice in my Macdonald's interview.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ you make all the videos that I need in my life! Such a role model you are ☺️
I’m so proud of you dear queen 👸 you are so educated and so kind 💕
Your videos are relaxing and soothing 🧚🏼
This was really helpful cause soon I'm going to interview for an article and I have been searching for months the best way to represent me in an interview. I'm really thankful for this. Thank you ☺
I don't have a job interview, but I do have my first medical school interview in a few days and this video has really helped and made me feel more confident so thank you, I've taken many notes. The first tip reminds me of the idea "image -> confidence -> success", I don't think anyone should dismiss the impact that dressing well and looking presentable can have on your morale and composure in an interview.
When it comes to confidence, I say just fake it till you make it. If you look confident (even if you don't), you'll end up feeling confident eventually. Good luck on your medical school interview. You got this!
Absolutely agree with you! Good luck with your interview 🤞
@@JamilaMusayeva Hlo ma'am because of my communication skills I am not getting through any interview. I became very nervous while speaking. How can I get rid of that? Please do reply me ma'am. Thank you

I have watched your entire video in a day... Amazing videos😊
Thank you!
Great content as always, thank you, Jamila! 🙏
One thing I would definitely add: the most important thing at a job interview is to stay true to yourself. By all means, present the best version of yourself, but make sure what you present is still 100% you. If you pretend to be something you aren’t, sooner or later it will show, which only gives the impression of manipulation and dishonesty. The more you try to be something you aren’t, the more nervous you are going to feel and the less credible you are going to appear. And most importantly, it is everybody’s shared interest at the interview to find out if you and the role you’re applying for are a good match for each other. The company doesn’t want to hire someone based on a dishonest interview only for them to turn out to be unsuited for the job. And you don’t want be hired for a position based on a false persona you present only to find out it’s not suited for you and go to work feeling miserable every day.
Also, to avoid conundrums, don’t be afraid to send a polite email enquiring about dress code, and at the end of the interview feel free to ask about the team you are expecting to join, the everyday life and the culture of the company - these will be the factors impacting you personally and a job interview these days is as much about your finding out about your prospective employer as it is about their getting to know you.
Thank you!
A real helpful video for introverts like me ! Thank you Jamila. I'm thankful that i came across your TH-cam channel accidentally. One of the great accident lol! Thank you and I would like you to make videos on outfit and hair Ettiquette.🌹

So true good manners works wonders the interview for my current job went horrible but when the interview was about to end I said have a great day sir. And that saved me I guess.
Glad to hear that ☺️
I’m so happy TH-cam suggested this video to me. I have never been to a job interview before and have been unemployed due to covid and personal problems for a year now. I have applied to jobs and there are interviews coming up and this video will definitely help me immensely. Bless you 🤍
Good luck to you!
