The job interview view is a powerful weapon to prepare
yourself for your big interview with your dream job.
With the use of a video recorder, you give yourself
the ability to see from the perspective of the
interviewer as you answer the questions that he or she
will ask you. Watching those answers later, you can
evaluate your performance and make whatever
adjustments you have to make before you go into the
real interview. None of this matters, however, if you
do not accurately predict the questions that you will
be asked during the job interview.
To prepare for your job interview session, do the
kind of research necessary to find out the most
important factors that the interviewers are looking
for. The first one is the actual job duties that the
target job is expected to perform on a regular basis
to do his or her job. You can be sure that the
interviewer will want to hear you talk about these
duties, how you have learned to do them, and get a
feel for your level of expertise. The second area of
interest for interviewers is the area of results. The
target job has a set of results they would like to see
achieved and goals that they hope to reach. To
determine if you can meet these goals and achieve
those results, they will want to hear about your prior
experience doing so.

The last area you should research before your job
interview video session is your personal attributes
and characteristics. Specifically, the interviewers
want to know if you have the kind of personal
attributes and characteristics that will fit into and
contribute to the corporate culture in a positive way.
Before you begin your video recording of the
interview, learn about these subjects and formulate
questions that solicit information about the target
duties, results and personal characteristics. Chances
are, the questions that you will receive in the actual
interview are similar to these questions.
In your job interview video session answer these
questions in a way that addresses the implicit
addition of the question, best summed up as “and prove
it.” Don’t simply state that you have achieved a
result or possess a specific attribute. Give a short,
vivid and relevant anecdote or example of a time when
you put that experience or attribute into action. That
sort of narrative goes a long way towards not only
making your answers more convincing but also a lot
more memorable. The vivid tales you tell allow the
interviewer to see your successful performance instead
of just hearing about the dull facts of that
experience. As you watch that job interview video
later, note the areas where you run out of information
and, alternately, where you wander away from the
point of the example. Try to think of ways to make the
situation of your experience, the actions you took and
the results which you achieved parallel or mirror the
situation, actions and results of the target company.
