1 00:00:10,050 --> 00:00:13,200 Unknown: Everybody, Andrew singer, here with the very first 2 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,260 installation of entry level guru, I want to talk to you 3 00:00:16,260 --> 00:00:19,140 about today are interview skills. Throughout this course 4 00:00:19,140 --> 00:00:21,180 I'm going to teach you about interviews, I'm going to tell 5 00:00:21,180 --> 00:00:24,090 you what it interviews for, and how you can be more successful 6 00:00:24,090 --> 00:00:26,850 in an interview situation. The first thing I really want to 7 00:00:26,850 --> 00:00:29,730 talk to you about though is what is the purpose of an interview? 8 00:00:30,030 --> 00:00:32,070 If you were sitting here right now, I would look at you and 9 00:00:32,070 --> 00:00:35,070 say, what's the purpose of the interview? And you would look at 10 00:00:35,070 --> 00:00:38,490 me and probably say something like, well, to convince somebody 11 00:00:38,490 --> 00:00:44,760 that I needed a job, okay?

To impress somebody to explain 12 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,930 something that I did before. Yeah, maybe the real purpose of 13 00:00:48,930 --> 00:00:51,390 an interview and that's what we're going to start right now 14 00:00:51,750 --> 00:00:55,350 is to get the person that you're speaking to the person that's 15 00:00:55,380 --> 00:01:00,360 interviewing you, to like you. It's that simple. No one Going 16 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,870 to hire somebody that they don't like, oh, but I think there's an 17 00:01:03,870 --> 00:01:07,200 exception there. Yes, there is a small exception. I call that 18 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,520 exception genius in the box.

The genius in the box means that you 19 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,150 know, a skill better than anybody else on the planet. And 20 00:01:15,150 --> 00:01:18,630 you may be rude, maybe we don't have good hygiene. Maybe you're 21 00:01:18,630 --> 00:01:20,790 not somebody that works well with others. But if you're a 22 00:01:20,790 --> 00:01:23,310 genius, and they can put you in a box and you can perform a 23 00:01:23,310 --> 00:01:26,760 task, then everyone's going to be fine with that. Otherwise, 24 00:01:26,850 --> 00:01:29,610 people want to know that you're nice that they could see you in 25 00:01:29,610 --> 00:01:31,860 the lunchroom and you're going to be friendly, they might bump 26 00:01:31,860 --> 00:01:34,170 into you in the hall and you're going to smile, they're not 27 00:01:34,170 --> 00:01:36,120 going to suddenly be uncomfortable around you in the 28 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,350 office.

So the main part of an interview is is in a very short 29 00:01:40,410 --> 00:01:44,850 period of time. You need to convince somebody to like you, 30 00:01:45,330 --> 00:01:49,320 and you have to do it authentically, sincerely, and 31 00:01:49,350 --> 00:01:53,310 nicely. This is a really, really important thing. Throughout this 32 00:01:53,310 --> 00:01:56,100 course of that interviewing. I'm going to keep coming back to 33 00:01:56,310 --> 00:01:59,970 these little skills to help you help somebody else like you. 34 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,540 It's not doing it is honestly, it's not making things up.

And 35 00:02:03,540 --> 00:02:08,400 once again, it's being authentic and sincere, but in a short 36 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,580 period of time, knowing the skills that you need and 37 00:02:11,580 --> 00:02:16,830 practicing to make it so that your smile is actually sincere 38 00:02:17,130 --> 00:02:20,940 and in having a sincere smile and having a nice way about you 39 00:02:20,940 --> 00:02:23,070 and the way that you come across. Somebody is going to 40 00:02:23,070 --> 00:02:26,160 like you in a short period of time, and you have a chance of 41 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,100 going from maybe a seven or an eight in an interview, which is 42 00:02:29,100 --> 00:02:32,880 not going to get you a job to a nine or a 10 that's going to be 43 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,440 the difference. Stay tuned.
