and then this tutorial, I'm going to give you my top 3 tough interview questions and

answers. If you do have an interview coming up with any company from around the world,

please do make sure you watch this video tutorial from beginning to end because it will make

a big difference to your interview preparation. I promise to give you three amazing answers

to the toughest interview questions out there. Now, before I do that, just a quick introduction

to myself and a welcome to this presentation. My name is Richard McMunn. That's me there

on the left hand side. And I've been helping people for about 20 years now to pass their

interviews. I always do that by giving you top-scoring answers. Now, a little bit about

my previous experience. I spent four years in the Royal Navy. I then spent 17 years as

a Fire Officer. I've been a firefighter for many years, and during that time, I spent

a few years within the recruitment and training department. I have also been on the interview

panel assessing people like you for jobs. So, I know what you need to do to pass your

interview. I also founded the successful career interview guidance website PassMyInterview.com,

and I'll tell you a little bit more about that later. But I am very passionate about

helping people pass their interviews and I want you to pass your interview! Let's get

into the training. Please do take notes as I go along. This is what I promise to cover.

I'm going to give you the 3 hardest interview questions. Those questions that are being

asked right now, and I can pretty much guarantee they will come up during your interview. I'm

going to give you the reason why the interviewers are increasingly asking these questions are

interviews. I will tell you what the interviewer is actually looking for in your answers to

those three questions. And then I will give you top-scoring answers that anybody can use

for any role whatsoever. So, there’s 4 great reasons why you should watch this, and that's

what I am going to cover. Why are interviewers and hiring managers asking these three tough

interview questions? Well, the reason is that if you can answer these three interview questions,

you are likely to succeed in the job and be a great employee. Let's have a look at those

questions. Now, the first one, unsurprisingly, is: What's your biggest weakness? This is

a very, very difficult interview question. And this is one of those questions that you

can fail the entire interview on. Before I give you a brilliant answer, let me give you

3 tips for scoring high with this interview question, what's your biggest weakness? (1)

Please do not give a weakness that is needed to do the job you are being interviewed for.

If you have to deal with customers, do not say you prefer to work on your own, you're

not that great with customers or don't say, “I'm not that confident”, because then

you won't get the job! (2) Be clever in your answer and turn your weakness into a strength,

and I will tell you how to do that in a second. And then my 3rd is, say, at the end of your

answer that you are looking to improve on your weakness. That is very important. Whatever

weakness you give, I will give you one right now. Make sure you tell the interviewer that

you are TRYING TO IMPROVE. And that is really good. That's a great trait and quality to

have as an employee. Here is my answer to the tough interview question, what's your

biggest weakness? “I feel my biggest weakness is that I sometimes struggle to ASK FOR HELP

from other people. For example, when I’m carrying out a difficult or challenging task,

I want to complete it myself and if I do get stuck, I’d rather dig in and find a way

to overcome the problem myself, instead of asking work colleagues for assistance. Obviously,

I do understand that it’s far more beneficial if I did ask for help from other experienced

team members, and I am trying to improve in this area whenever the situation arises.”

Now, that is a brilliant answer to the tough interview question, what's your biggest weakness?

Because it doesn't do you any harm. But more importantly, it is actually a STRENGTH. If

you told me that at the interview, I would be thinking… “Well, this person is someone

who likes to find out things for themselves. They are a self-motivated. They will go away

and look.” And to me, that is a strength. That is a great way to answer that interview

question. Let's now move on to the second tough interview question, and that is: Why

should I hire you? Now, this is tough, because the interviewer will ask EVERY CANDIDATE the

same question. Let's say there's 5 other people that they are interviewing. This is another

way of the interviewer saying to you: What makes you the standout candidate? This is

your opportunity to excel and show them that you are a worthy employee and also that you

are positive that you can be competent in the role. Let me give you three tips before

I come onto a top-scoring answer to the interview question: Why should I hire you? My first

tip is, you have to show that you are the STANDOUT CANDIDATE in your answer. And there

is a way to do that in a second. Now, my advice to give the best answer out of everybody at

the interview, is to give the interviewer or the hiring manager THREE REASONS why they

should hire you and nobody else. Now, this will automatically make your answer distinctive

from everybody else's. Most people will just give one reason. But you are going to say:

“I have three reasons why I feel you should hire me.” That instantly makes you STAND

OUT from everybody else and then tell the interviewer that you understand that the success

of their company is dependent on you doing a great job for them. And that is another

term for being COMMERCIALLY AWARE. And again, that is very attractive to any employer or

hiring manager. So let's take a look at a brilliant answer to the tough interview question:

Why should I hire you? “I feel you should hire me for 3 main reasons. Firstly, I have

READ THE JOB DESCRIPTION and the skills and qualities I possess are a MATCH FOR THE POSITION.

This means I can make an immediate impact when I start. Secondly, I am FAST LEARNER

and a STRONG TEAM WORKER. Again, I feel I will be able to hit the ground running and

start contributing to the team quickly. Finally, I do understand and appreciate that the SUCCESS

of your business is DEPENDENT ON PEOPLE LIKE ME doing a good job for you. You have my assurance

that if you do decide to hire me, which I genuinely hope you do, I will work hard to

REPAY THE TRUST you have shown in TAKING ME ON over the other candidates.” That is a

brilliant answer to the tough interview question: Why should I hire you? It doesn't take much

to learn, so you can pause the video when you want to and take notes. But don't forget

to GIVE 3 REASONS, and you are finishing there on the answer with the fact that you understand

that in order for them to be successful, you have to do a really good job. And you are

therefore saying as well, that I will WORK HARD to repay the trust you have shown in

taking me on over the other candidates. Let's take a look at my third tough interview question.

Why do you want to leave your job? A lot of people want to leave jobs for various reasons.

Now, the interviewer is curious as to why you want to leave. You can, again, fail the

whole interview if you give the wrong answer to this tough interview question. Let me give

you THREE TIPS before I give you a brilliant answer. Why do you want to leave your job?

Tip number one, be positive about your current or former employer. Do not be negative about

them in any way whatsoever. Because then that says a lot about you. If you're positive about

them, you know, it comes across as attractive. It shows that you are a positive person, you

are upbeat and you are not negative. The second thing, if you are negative about your former

employer, or your work colleagues, or your manager, you will probably not get hired!

And then finally, number three, be complimentary of them and then cite one of the achievements

you are most proud of whilst you were there, and then give a great reason for wanting to

leave. We are going to tell them that you've really enjoyed it, that you've learned a lot

from them, you've achieved something really good things together, and then give them that

great reason for WHY you want to leave your job. Here is my brilliant answer to the tough

interview question, Why do you want to leave your job? “I have thoroughly enjoyed working

for my employer and they have been very supportive and a great team to work for. We achieved

lots of great things together, including massively improving customer service whilst I was there,

but I am ready for a new challenge. I feel I have so much to offer, and this role I am

applying for today, I feel, will enable me to put those skills and qualities to really

good use. I will leave my employer on good terms, but I one hundred percent want to work

for your company in this role, and to help you continually grow and develop within this

industry.” Again, it is a brilliant answer to that tough interview question! So, those

are my three answers. I'd like to give you some more answers to tough interview questions.
