Welcome to another video from the Learn English with Cambridge channel.

If I were to interview in English right now, would you know what to say?

Nowadays, it has become more and more common for companies to interview job applicants in English.

Even if you speak well, you might be caught off guard, not knowing exactly what to say.

So, it's important to be prepared for these questions.

With that in mind, in this video, I'll give you examples of common job interview questions and how to best answer them.

Are you ready? Let's go.

Hello, Rebecca; thanks for coming.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

So, tell me about yourself.

For this question, it's important to have a strategy to answer.

A good idea is to talk about personal aspects such as personality characteristics that can be applied in the workplace.

Words like outgoing, communicative, analytical, or open-minded are some examples.

And talking about past working experiences is also a good idea.

You can use phrases like, "I have worked with" and the area of work "for" the amount of time you have done it.

Or even talk about your study experience abroad.

Well, I'm very outgoing, and I'm extremely communicative, and I love meeting new people and teaching.

And I have been working with education for over 15 years, and I have studied abroad for 3 years.

That's great to know.

And what would you say is your greatest strength?

Talking about your strengths is telling the interviewer about what you do naturally and well.

You can use words like high-achiever, flexible, organized, and strategic.

You can use phrases like, "I'm" a high-achiever, or even "What makes me stand out is" being strategic.

And don't forget to back up your strength with how you use it.

I guess you could say, I'm a high-achiever, I love to have goals, and I'm very motivated to start and complete all of my tasks.

And what makes me stand out is my ability to learn very quickly and teach it to other people.

That's is very interesting, Rebecca.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Talking about the future is always uncertain.

The idea here is to show what are your intentions for your career and this possible job.

You can use phrases using the modal "would".

"I'd love to" know, to learn, to have the opportunity.

Or using the simple future with "will", such as, "In 5 years, I will" be a manager.

Well, in 5 years, I hope I will be a renowned teacher that helps people learn English in a fun and simple way.

I also would love to have the opportunity to learn more about recording and editing videos professionally so I can make my content even better.

Great, Rebecca; thank you so much for being here.
