    @Kouyou160 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for the vid! Anyone going to talk about how slightly nasty it is that your "bad interviewer" character is like slightly kitschy and hip-hop inspired while your "good interviewer" character is very waspy. You can be waspy and still bad at interviewing but whateves thanks for trying to put effort in

    • @MooncakeEnglish
      @MooncakeEnglish  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, thanks for watching and welcome to the Mooncake community!
      Thanks for bringing up these points, it did make me stop and think about the motivation behind this video.
      I can see why you might feel the example of how not to interview might be hip-hop inspired, so let me explain my thought process behind the video. This character was based upon many teachers I have actually interviewed and is a reflection on the the ESL job market in China. In China, there are far too many jobs and not enough teachers. This makes it very easy for teachers to choose the company they would like to work for. As such, many teachers make no effort when interviewing and will literally turn up to interview in scruffy t-shirts and caps assuming that because they speak English, they will get the job. This particular character was based upon the many teachers like this that I have interviewed.
      I totally agree that you can be waspy and still interview badly. Waspy-ness certainly won't get you a job! But, I hope that the video gave some useful information about how to answer some common interview questions and help build your confidence when interviewing.
      Thanks again for the feedback!

    • @MooncakeEnglish
      @MooncakeEnglish  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Daniel! I would recommend a computer, positioned at eye level so that the camera angle is more flattering. If you only have a phone that’s okay too, but set it up at eye level and hands free so you don’t need to hold it. I would suggest headphones if you’re not in a quiet place when you interview. I hope that helps! Good luck and let me know how it goes!

      Hi Gino, thanks for watching and welcome to the Mooncake community! I'm so glad you have enjoyed the videos and found the channel helpful 😊
      Regarding working in China, it's currently a little tricky due to the recent world changing events. Currently foreigners are not able to enter China, so although there are plenty of teaching opportunities here, it's not possible to enter the country. For online teaching experience your best bet is to research some different online companies. There are lots of different requirements and pay depending on your experience and the country they provide lessons to. Be sure to do lots of research before signing up!
      I hope that helps 😊

      Hi Anna, thanks for watching!
      I'm sorry your interview wasn't successful in this instance. Sometimes schools are looking for a teacher for a specific age group. So, if they think hat you are more suited to teach older students, but they're currently recruiting for a position with younger students, they may keep your details for future positions. I would keep applying to different. positions and try to find the right position for you.
      I hope that helps!
