Predicting the Future: Strange and Surprising Methods Real English Conversations Podcast On Italki


Acing a job interview goes beyond showcasing your skills and experience. It's about persuasion – convincing the interviewer you're the perfect fit. Here are three key techniques to transform your interview from good to great:

1. The Power of Storytelling: Facts and figures are important, but stories resonate. Weave a compelling narrative about a time you faced a challenge in a previous role.  Describe your thought process, actions taken, and the positive outcome. This not only highlights your skills but also demonstrates your problem-solving abilities and impact.

2. The "Why" Factor:  Don't just explain what you can do; connect it to the company's mission. Research the company's values and goals. During your interview, explain why their vision aligns with your own aspirations. This showcases your genuine interest and how you'd contribute to their success.

3. Anticipation is Key:  Prepare for their questions, but also anticipate potential objections about your experience or qualifications.  For example, if you lack direct experience in a specific area, highlight transferable skills or relevant coursework.  Have data or references ready to back up your claims, demonstrating your initiative and preparedness.

By mastering these techniques, you'll move from simply answering questions to shaping the narrative of the interview. You'll showcase your passion, problem-solving skills, and alignment with the company, ultimately persuading them that you're the ideal candidate for the job. Remember, a successful interview is a two-way street. Let your enthusiasm and persuasive communication shine through, and you'll be well on your way to landing your dream job.

3 Persuasive Techniques to Win in a Job Interview - Episode 99

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
大阪から北海道に帰ってきましたー。

大阪と北海道では10℃ぐらい、気温が違いますね。
今日の朝の最低気温は-2℃！でした！
寒かったですーー。

さて、今日は前回の続きですね。
奈良の東大寺に行きました！という話です。

奈良には世界遺産に登録されている建物が多いです。
その中の1つが東大寺です。大仏が有名です。
日本ではよく奈良の大仏と呼ばれますが、正しくは、
盧舎那大仏るしゃなだいぶつ
という名前の大仏です。

743年に始まり、749年、6年かけて建てられた、ということですから、今から1200年以上も前のことですね。
地震や戦により、何度か修復をして、今に至ります。

建物も何度も改修されて、今の形になっています。
昔はもっと大きかったみたいです。


日本に来る予定の人もいると思います。
奈良に行ったことがない！
という方は、ぜひ行ってみてください。
1200年前の日本を感じることができますよ。

僕はitalkiでオンラインレッスンをしています。
リンクを貼っていますので、興味がある人はぜひ見てみてください。お待ちしています！

今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
