    I'd take the liberty to comment on that from the other side: I interviewed many people and I'd like to tell what I am looking for when I ask someone to introduce oneself. Firstly, I do not want the candidate to recite their CV: I already know what's written there. By retelling the CV the candidate implies that I have not read it, which I find a bit disrespectful. Secondly, I want to know which of their accomplishment the candidate is really proud of: something that they accomplished despite having been dealt a weak hand.

      I dont agree with you there. I once lost a scholarship because of not reciting my cv. Some interviewers don't read your cv or maybe forget about it later.

    I am not fluent yet, but, when I applied for job I trained for a interview without even a intermediate level of English and I got the job! Sure, after that a needed to spent hours studying to get better but everything got ok! It was amazing and funny, even now I can't believe I got the job hahaha

    Hi Lucy,
    Thank you for the lesson.
    I have a suggestion that I hope you'd take into your consideration. We (ie learners of English) come across so many examples in real-life uses that we don't find their explanations in the lessons or in grammar textbooks. TH-cam lessons teaching English Language as well as grammar textbooks tend to be more academic. So, when it comes to real-life situations we get confused (especially when it comes to being formal or informal). Not mentioning that most channels deal with the same subjects over and over again. I hope that you'd either use more real-life examples of different fields (legal, medical, diplomatic, official ... etc; things that we deal with in everyday life), or dedicate some of your videos to answering such questions.
    My best regards.

    • @user-no2mz9hl4f
      @user-no2mz9hl4f ปีที่แล้ว +8

      This is well written - I can tell you’re an advanced English learner. I thought I’d offer a few corrections from a native speaker; I hope it’s helpful. “…I have a suggestion that I hope *you’ll take into consideration.* We come across so many examples *of real life* uses *for which we don’t find explanations* in the lessons or in grammar textbooks…*Not to mention* that most channels deal with the same subjects over and over again. I hope *you’ll* [‘you might’ would also work] either use more real life examples of different fields…”

    Ok. Here is Homework task
    What I look for in a job, and what I love about this customer service representative position, is the ability to utilize my communication and customer service skills. I love interacting with customers and quickly and effectively problem-solving with them. Down the road, after becoming an expert in your product line and developing strong relationships with your customers, I would love to work in sales.

    Hi Lucy, Thank you for telling about how to introduce ourself in a job interview. I have passed my Ordinary Level exam in four subjects including English. My only dream is to become an airline pilot, but I don't have enough qualifications unfortunately because of my nervous disorder I'm unable to do any other good jobs. I'm presently working at my uncle's shop,

  • @josephaboudeeb5665
    @josephaboudeeb5665 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    You know Lucy, I have once learned ONE thing about job interviews.
    What REALLY matters is the applicant's personality, the impression that the manager (or the HR) gets about the applicant, because they have to deal with him (ie with his personality) everyday.
    What do think? Is that right?

    I am so thankful i clicked this video of yours.... I had just had a job interview and was kinda nervous about how it went ... then I came bac here wondering why that tell me about yourself question had hit me so hard when it was finally asked to me .....tho i had answered it very calmly and confidently ...i knew myself how much ...I was scared and terrified as to what am i supposed to tell......my previous job... my childhood.... my hobbies.... but then i assimilated my thoughts and thought about my journey in the field ...and talked about it...
    i was worried if the other didn't liked whatever i said....but i played along well and after that call i just checked your video and i am glad i did.....n atleast did half thing right...
