All your advice are good for people who are under fifty years old, not for me. I'mm 77 years old. I'm unployied for now, but I'm still looking forward to get one. That's the reason I'm studying English now, maybe I will working for free and help someone who needs.Thank you Mr. James for encourage me not "give up".🤝🤗🙏

Thanks for the tips! I live in Latin America, and it's been hard to get a job since I was fired months ago due to pandemic consequences. Always working for Multinacional companies, but now it seems the opportunities are more rare specially for sales management. Thanks!!

Thank you for an excellent video! It was very informative. It's odd that I hadn't realized this until hearing you explain it, but I once made the mistake of stating an exact number when asked about the salary I expected. I'm pretty good at my job, so I thought I was being fair in asking for what was essentially the upper limit offered for that position, but that was probably why I never got a follow-up call back then. One question I've been asked at almost every interview is "Where do you see yourself in five years?" I usually tailor my response to describe a role that's a couple of steps above what I'm applying for. Thanks again!

I have one extra question to add to this list: as an applicants, we should be able to ask question from the interviewer as well. How do you put it ? Cheers!

Hi, James...as usual, wonderful video. I was trying to find some tips to my test at English School. I believe, at list in Brazil, they like to ask in their job interviews: "How do you see yourself in five years?" or "Where can you see yourself in five years?"

At least in my part of the world there is another important thing: Be yourself, don't be an actor. If your personal show is far away from real life, the other one will know immediately, because they do interviews very often and have experience in looking through people, and you probably don't.
