How To Create The Best Elevator Pitch for Job Interviews

[@sweetgumlife5185]

Thank you for helping me write my pitch, Jen! Hi, my name is Stephanie. As a content writer, I help small businesses by creating nuanced and engaging stories for their social media, web sites, and blogs.

[@CAMILLEGORDON-THOMAS]

How do you do a pitch when you are not currently employed and haven't worked over a year and your applying for a intake specialist post?

[@terylrein735]

Hi, I’m Teryl I work as a blackjack dealer at the casino and I bring a smile and prompt service for each one of my customers and have approximately a 3000 customer base

[@raniekaweston402]

This was a great tip with two real world examples. What do you think of this example - "I am a talent strategist. I connect learning and development with coaching to help leaders discover how to leverage their strengths and talents for the growth of their team, themselves and the organization"

[@2steaksandwiches665]

Yes! We all love useful stuff like this in less than 5 mins. THANK YOU! SUbbed.

HI Jen, I am definetly entwined. you have the motivation need for any student trying to find ways to simplify a elevator situation. I find it is even used in movies and you actually find a way to mingle the easiest way to do it in conversation. I would call it coffee shop.

I am a graphic designer. I enjoy working with a team of talented people in a fast-paced environment, creating visual content for branding and marketing goals.

Elevator pitch: the value that you bring to a role through your job title. Why do people come to you? Why do people love you? Example: Hey nice to meet you, my name is Jenn. I'm an ops manager at Disney. In addition to managing day to day operational functions, I'm known as the go to person for process improvement and turning around under performing teams. Another example: I'm Jenn, I'm a career success coach. I help job seekers to navigate bias locked inside of the hiring process. That's the number one reason clients come my way.

[@sandraj7196]

Hi I am Sandy. I like to motivate people by doing something fun to get their attention. Plus I have great computer skills and I a lot of medical terminology terms.

[@tanikawilliams4858]

I love this! What value do I bring to the role...yes!

[@CareerSuccess]

Great question to get clear on, right?!

[@jaysspot8141]

Hello I'm Jennifer, I'm an Office Assistant, in addition to performing office operations, I'm known for great communication and flexibility to provide support for under performing teams leading to successful execution of project deadlines.

[@mirandahein5344]

Great advice! And it’s still surprisingly nerve wracking. Lol. I’m a learning and leadership specialist. I maximize the well-being and productivity of all stakeholders through process improvement and collaborative innovation.

[@sineadsawyer5304]

I'm Sinead, I've been consistently in the top 3 of our sales performance team since working here and have some months broken sales records. I am interested in a sales training/2IC role

[@slugger3110]

Hi, my name is John, it's great to meet you. During my time as a sales leader, I was always the guy that upper management would go to in finding solutions to challenges such as coaching under-performing sales reps, handling escalations, and planning strategies to help the department meet and exceed their goals. I need to make a 1-2 minute video on why I would excel in a sales position and something about myself. When talking to myself I plan on speaking of my core values of service, honesty, integrity, & loyalty. If you have other suggestions or feedback please let me know!

[@academiahero3902]

Hi what about for students (graduates) looking for a job? I've been taught that we can't overextend on our study background but if we don't have much experience to value xd

[@AmoreMiu]

What about for people who are just starting their career and have no experience in a specific career field yet?

[@jenb3940]

Great video. Now I do have a question. I am currently going through a major career change. I am going from being an esthetician owning my own business to becoming a banker. I particularly want to become a Relationship banker but don't know how I can give an elevator pitch with my background being so different? I feel I have not gotten a job in the banking field because my previous career has nothing to offer to my new career. How could I navigate this situation? Thanks!

[@crystallucero1510]

I'm in the same situation! Going from Real Estate to Recruiting.

[@RondanaroS.Marshall]

Good morning Jenn how do I'm new to the country with no Canadian job experience. I am a student enrolled in a job fair. How do I pitch myself from this point of view?

[@johnkeppel1313]

Hi Jen I was very entertained by what you had to say in your video. As an entertainer transitioning into sales I believe you have what it takes to potentially help me in my future endeviuf. If I am successful in my job interview tomorrow I will Denver where I linked for help😊

[@lisaosborne5767]

Hi Jennifer! Great advice. I’ve watched all of your videos pre interview and I think I nailed it. Even though the recruiter said they were conducting interviews for the next 3 weeks, I got a call the very next day letting me know that they wanted to move forward with the background check. Good news right? I have some questions regarding the salary negation if they do call with an offer. Is there an email address we can chat?

Hello if I was looking for a job as a leasing professional what is the best elevator speech

[@CareerSuccess]

Rayshawn thank you for your question. Could you provide more clarification about a leasing professional? Is this for housing or possibly car leasing? Thank you.

[@towandagaston2448]

Hello Jennifer, my issue is I'm trying to completely change roles. I'm going from a job in a retail setting to pursuing a career as a human services professional. How would I create an elevator pitch that shows my value at the entry level?

[@CareerSuccess]

Hello Towanda, thanks for visiting the Career Success Channel. Elevator pitches are generally used when in a role, settled and actually completing tasks aligned to the role. That said, your true focus at this point should be using your resume to identify what skills and roles you have that can transfer to the new role that you are seeking. When interviewing for a new role, especially when pivoting, you want to do the research on the core skills needed in the new role. You will use that opportunity to speak on which skills you have experience on, which skills you are aware that you will need to build (and how) and which skills you hope to build longer term. Speak about the "how", and it will show that you did the work to pivot. Best of luck to you ahead.

[@mohibquadri7715]

Great tips ! Mam could u tell is there any way to achieve the target salary in 2-3 yrs of experience at job when 5 yrs are required on an average to reach that point ?

[@CareerSuccess]

Great question and thank you for asking! If a minimum requirement is that you have 5 years of experience and you have only 2-3 years, it is likely that you will not be considered for that role unless you are able to demonstrate transferrable experience that is suitable to get you up to the five years. So, it is not about hitting the salary, it is about focusing on how to demonstrate the five years of experience. Once you demonstrate the five years of experience, the salary follows the role. Focus on experience.

I'm going on my second interview next Tuesday. I don't need an elevator pitch at this stage, right?

[@CareerSuccess]

Excellent follow up question and congratulations on your second interview! An elevator pitch is intended for your initial introduction, so if you're interviewing with a different individual it's a great idea to use your elevator pitch. Thank you for watching!
