I work at a FAANG company and can tell you that most of the internal interviews are formalities, 90% of their hiring decision is based on your personal brand in the company and backdoor references. Don't underestimate the power of networking even within your own company!
Facts! I have seen people get in roles internally that they have 0 experience doing, just because they knew someone on the team
Who do you know, vs what you know!
You nailed it
Speak more about a personal brand within the company. I'm intrigued
@@vegtbull all of the managers talk to each other and tell each other who is good and bad on their teams so your reputation really matters.
Thank you so much! I praise God for your videos....I took all the notes and landed my dream promotion within my company....when they made me the offer and told me the salary, my jaw hit the floor! The LORD is so faithful!!!
They said they made up their mind within the first 10 min of the panel interview because of my stories (toolbox) and questions I asked..... thank you so much for the time and effort you put in these videos....may God bless you and make His face shine upon you and your family!
Amen! Congratulations ❤
I literally interviewed today and was offered a position later in the evening!!! I binge watched your videos and let me say THANK YOU!! this is the career move I’ve been wanting and I am super excited!!
I cannot say I would recommend the "what additional skills or expertise do you wish I had that would make me a better fit for this role?" question. It's inherently negative. I tried it during my internal hire interview today and it turned the conversation into pure criticism. I'm entry level/early career professional. I don't have a lot of experience that would be valuable, and it's things I simply cannot change or speak to address. It just didn't work for me and I wouldn't recommend it, but it may work for others. Otherwise, this was a pretty helpful video.
I framed it as "are there any skills missing from our team that you are looking for" because I have skills I use in my freelance work but they don't know... I was able to prove I can fill that gap
This could not have been timed better. I am applying for an internal position today. Great tips! I now how a start point. Thank you!!
Best of luck on your applications! Hope you get the internal position!
Hello, I wanted to stop by and thank you because after studying many of your videos I not only got called back for a second interview for an internal position ( promotion) but I ultimately was chosen for the job!! I truly believe your videos helped prepare me and land this opportunity. This new job was a dream job for me and I can’t thank you enough for providing advice and guidance.
It is forbidden to speak to the interview manager/team at our company ahead of interviews. I have found that the hiring manager already knows who is going to get the job before the interview. It is simply a way to protect the company against legal claims.
I agree!
This is true, I found out prior my interview that they already decided on someone else…waste of my time but I didn’t even try my best at the interview 😏
Is there any end to this time consuming waist of valuable time? It is very time consuming to properly prepare for a professional, corporate position when the decision has already been made on who they're going to hire.
YOU ARE A TREASURE THAT NEEDS TO BE PROTECTED.
I have been watching your channel for a month now, ever since I started applying for jobs and I cannot possibly explain how helpful your videos have been to me. Thank you very much, I got my dream job this week and it would have been a lot harder without your influence. PEOPLE, listen to her! Much appreciation goes to you, thank you.
Thank you so much for all of your tips! I watched a lot of your videos before I had internal interviews and landed the job. You're the best! Love your videos, thank you so much for all the time and energy you put into them!
Thank you! Thank you sooo much! I had an internal interview for my first position in leadership. I followed all of your videos (and filled out the story toolbox) and got the position! Four interviewers, three seperate interviews. I was told the decision was unanimous!
This is great advice, especially as the internal interview is often harder than the initial hire interview. The interviewers are more relaxed as well and more willing to go into difficult questions and are seeking detailed answers. We really appreciate your content.
This came a week too late for me 🤣. But watched a handful of your other videos on a loop and they really helped. I haven’t got a formal job offer yet but my manager said to expect one based on their emails to her! Thank you so much! Truly could not have done it without your tips!
This video is a series of references to your other videos.
I have an internal interview on Friday. I spoke to the previous guy who had the role and then I spoke to another manager who I would be working with to understand the full role scope and what were the challenges. It lasted 2 and half hours long! I also spoke to the hiring manager twice
I've binged watched all your videos and they helped me prepare for an internal interview for a Supervisory role. I felt very confident going in and just like to say thank you for providing such valuable information and guidance. Now I'm waiting to hear if I was selected.
The video and your advice is amazing!You have hleped me to realize how I need to prepare myself for my internal interview.BIG thank You🙏❤
I have set up an Informational Interview before! Recently, a full-time position opened up in the department I already work for. I reached out to the Director of the department (the hiring manager for this position) and set up a meeting. Because of this meeting, I was able to learn more about the job, whether I would be considered for the position (due to some extenuating circumstances) and was able to develop a better relationship with the Director. I came upon this video because I am going into an interview for said position today and just thought I would share my experience with this style of preemptive interview. Worked out great for me, and even if I am not offered the job, I would highly recommend setting up a meeting like this. It strongly helps develop the relationship you want with your supervisor, and opens the door for future communication!
Thank you so much for posting this wonderful video, Madeline.
First of all I want to say thank you, I started watching you videos needing advice on video interviews. Almost broke my leg, just a very badly bruised sprain, thank God. I got a phone interview and it was by far the best I've ever done. Moved on to in person interview and the man interviewing asked a few questions and then proceeded to tell me he's in trouble and could be fired for how he treated a coworker. Stunned, I listened and he said " out of anger, because the machines weren't working, he told her to pull up her skirt!"
Was this a test or a red flag to not work there?
Amazing advice for applying to an internal position!!
I have. This is an extremely effective way to understand a company, process of hiring, or get your feet pointed in the right direction. -- Interview is today -- Wish I saw your videos earlier.
I just got a new job and already thinking about my next move within the company 😅
This video came at the perfect time!
I’ve set up internal interviews several over the last week
I have an internal interview today and this couldn't of been planned any better. I am grateful that you made these videos because it has really calmed my anxiety for the interview. Thank you so much.
I love your energy!! AWSOME!
How do you overcome interview anxiety as these are great tips but when you have anxiety the tips and tricks go out the door :(
Yes!😭 My anxiety and nervousness makes my body tremble and it becomes harder to speak and black out. Just had my interview this morning 😢
I'm trying to brainstorm things I wants to say and not say. Because my brain automatically goes to things I shouldn't be saying😮
Great advice. Kudos.
I watched so many of these internal interview type videos and always the same advice. Talk to the team and the manager, get to know them, but somehow nobody seems to understand that it is an internal interview. I know the team because they are "MY TEAM" I know my hiring manager because he is MY MANAGER. Hey "INTERNAL"!!! I know the whole department in two different towns and guess what my competitions know them too.
Some places have more than one department but are still the same company.
Awesome video! Would you please also do a video for ‘peer interview’? 🙇🏻♀️ Thank you~!
I have! Have my formal interview today at 4pm.
Your first tip is the reason why I have an interview this coming Thursday. It was 7 weeks from when I applied for a new role so I went in and spoke to the Hiring Manager and he reached out to the recruiter.
Yes, I do request informational interviews.
Hey, I know you'll never see this comment, but I just wanted to say THANK YOU!! I just landed a potentially career-defining new role within my company thanks to your advice. I watched this, plus a number of your other videos, and totally aced my interview yesterday. Just got the official offer!
Thanks again!!!!
I have an upcoming interview for a highly sought-after internal position, with six other colleagues gunning. This was highly insightful. The last time I interviewed for this position, I retroactively asked "What more can I do to be further considered" with the reply of "Nothing really, it was a tough decision, keep doing what you are doing"
I will definitely pose the question during the interview this time and utilize your Jedi Mind Trick.
Please tell me if you got the job?! I hope you did!
@SneakyNinjaSistas unfortunately, I did not. We had a series of interviews with 3 finalists. I was among the three finalists and the other have been promoted by now.
@@Duddylee Awe dang, sorry to hear. Making it to the final 3 is great and its always a good learning experience! I'm waiting to hear back from an interview from last week...
Not only have I had multiple conversations with one of the interviewers, but I also had a shadow session with someone in the role I am now going to be interviewing for tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
Had to go ahead and give this video a thumbs up after that comment on folks being too busy trying to write up that perfect email 😭😫 amazing content though as always 👏🏽
Great stuff! 😃
I have a one way video interview with the state. Some of them are timed. I only have 1 minute to read the question, 1 minute to get my thoughts together and 1 minute to answer. Also, not allowed to retake the video for that question preferably. How would you go about answering and any tips! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS ♥️♥️
I haven't set up an informational interview. However,, I am going over your videos, I have a phone interview in 7 days. I am interested in getting invited to the next round.
Great tips. You're a Rockstar.
Thank you Mam! If possible do you have tips if the company Job Post Description is so vague? Like Network Engineer but online list 2 requirements? Is that a bad sign?
Excellent timing! I have an internal interview coming up this noon and this is a great help, thank you :)
Best of luck on your interview!!
I didn't even know you could ask for an internal interview.
Not yet, but I have one coming up.
I have - now for the actual interview
What if my manager told me not to worry too much about the internal interview... 😉 know what I mean?
I have been undergoing a 3 months internship and my internship is coming to an end in less than a week and by manager hasn't scheduled a date to discuss a full-time position with the company as was stated in the offer .. i don't know what to do ? Advice please 🥺
Can you please do a video for people who have had multiple jobs on their resume that were only slightly in light with their career direction, but they honestly just took the jobs because sometimes we can't be that fussy and we just take what we can get so we can pay our bills? Life isn't always perfect and in a straight line, and I think I am being ignored by every HR person out there because my career path seems to be a bit all over the place, but there's never a chance to say, "THIS is my path, THIS is what I want. The other jobs were more about paying the bills vs. matching my career direction."
I am 35, and I feel like most of my jobs have had to be compromises because we can't all always get picked for the jobs we really want. Now, I can't get ANY job I want because I've mostly been NOT picked for what I wanted in the past.
Help please!!
You are not alone. I have had lots of jobs and one or two long term. I have different resumes based on what I'm applying for. On the bright side, you are always up for a new opportunity. You are up to trying and enjoying new things. There are probably common threads within each job, like communication with a team or customers, sales, or patients?
Great video, I am in this case of internal recruting. I Forgot to send a thank you e-mail, is that bad? Ps: where do you buy your chair?
Does not apply to federal government internal interview. Any tips for that?
im going into the SAME EXACT job lol. I feel so nervous bc what am i supposed to say?
I have scheduled one for tomorrow 😂
not yet!
TPS Reports!
I feel like I’m not super close with anyone in the team, I get along yeah but that’s it. I feel like I’m not gonna get it because of that mainly, and because of the possible candidates I’m the one with less time in the company. Im just venting here. Im gonna try anyway.
Hey, I have a question with regards to questions at job interviews!
Is it okay if some of my relevant responses to questions are a bit older? I'm basically just finishing my MA at uni. So I've pretty much been in academics my whole life + working part-time on many different jobs as I go. But my stories would be much more interesting if I could share both high school stuff as well as more recent experiences.
What I'm saying is would sharing SOME stories from 2014-2015 put the job interviewers off or is it okay
I would try to keep your responses to experiences you have had in the last 5 years. In your case (with it being 6 yrs ago) if the response or story you’d like to share aligns perfectly with the position you’re interviewing for and has direct correlation then I’d say go ahead and share it but make sure to also share experiences that are recent - even if it’s hands on class projects during your time in university. Employers usually value volunteer opportunities just as much as they do paid work. Hope this helps!
@@renaethecareercoach It does help, thank you for responding to me!
Haven't tried an info interview
Hahaha
I got the job!!
Thank you
I know you posted a year ago, but how did you answer All their questions?
Soooo one time I applied for a different dept and I got the same feedback: “He needs more experience…”
I’d been with the company over nine years at that point, and I had already worked with that dept in the past for like most of my time at the company.
Yeah I bombed that interview.
As a fresh graduate who has no experience yet.... How can I answer the question "What can you contribute to the company?" aaahhh I get nervous just by hearing that question
Not yet
after 2 rounds of interviews they told me that they liked me and got the job but wanted to offer me the position to a different location ,as they need someone urgently, from the one we originally discussed and i said i wouldnt be able to make it and they said the position in the location we discussed originally is not off we just need to confirm it within this week and let me know...do you think i should send them a thank you email saying thank you for your trust blabla and i hope you get the confirmation so we can work together in the location blabla or should i give them time and if they dont get back to me soon email them to see if there are any news about the office i want to work in and be more cool about it this way?
I have an internal interview tomorrow and I’m a lil nervous let see if anyone will give me a chance because I need help with my interview skills
I know you posted a year ago, but how did you do?

This video is alright but it's quite annoying that every minute you're directing to another video. my time is valuable. I don't have the time to watch a million videos from you. i understand you want to get attention for your other content as a creator, but it'd be nice to just go into a bit more detail and then direct viewers to other videos, rather than give a brief tease and then say watch the video on that. just my two cents
I work for a very high profile fashion brand, in the e-commerce department.. started 4 mo ago and I am up for a promotion tomorrow! Supervisor! Thank you for all the tips. 🫶🏼♥️♥️
