You rock Richard!..had my interview after binging a ton of your videos and I got word today I passed my interview and they are now doing my background investigation which I should easily pass after 25 years as a police officer...I am pretty certain I will be getting the job for my new police career after pensioning out from my first law enforcement career in a few months...Thanks for the great advice!

A big shoutout to you Richard. Thank-you very much for another in depth video. Your content is a valuable resource.

[@CareerVidz]

THANKS YANNICK!

[@allkindsofkrap2506]

Beautiful content here coming from someone who has been selected for several government interviews. Keep in mind, the interviewers WILL ask you to elaborate on these suggested responses by providing specific examples/scenario's you experienced with your current or past employers, ESPECIALLY for situational questions. It is important that your experience example/scenario response you provide supports the generalized response you provided to the original question. Also keep in mind, once you land that government job, you will be subject to the same interview questions when trying to promote to a higher position with more responsibility. Thanks for this Richard!

[@CareerVidz]

Thanks for sharing! I'm glad you liked the video!

Hi, I would like to express my gratitude because thanks to your advices, I pass my interview and the result is just amazing. Thank you very much.

Richard this video couldn't have came at a better time. I am currently a GS-12 and I will be interviewing for a GS-13 position in the coming weeks. I have interviewed for this position a couple times before with no success. After watching your videos and preparing myself I feel more confident than ever. I will keep you updated and hopefully this will be the time I pass the interview. Thanks for everything

I am pleased to announce that I was selected for the position! The feedback from the interview panel left me in shock. They said it was one of the best interviews they have heard in a long time and that I was the clear choice for the promotion. I can't thank you enough Richard and thank you all who stayed tuned for the update.

[@zshell-thomas2358]

Love this! Thank you! I have went on these interviews and feel like I just missed the mark on my answers. Never knew what the interviewers were looking for, especially in the case where they really already have someone selected for the position. At that point, I feel like I am going through the motions. At least I can be better prepared regardless.

Can you provide a link where those questions are at in the opm. I have searched prior to me leaving active duty and no luck. TIA

Hello, fantastic content thank you so much. I have an interview in 2 weeks with an intergovernmental/international organisation and am wondering if there are any specific advice you have for interviews at organisations that work With governments and not within One specific government ministry. Thank you so much

[@keywest7062]

I watched this and several other video's. I had 2 government job interviews on the same day. I felt better prepared with my answers and also a few questions. But I will say I hate the waiting game. I did follow up with a thank you email,. but they typically do not reply. Any idea when I might hear something either way? IF they plan on bringing on someone new on the 1st and a background check would still need to be done.

@@CareerVidzOh, I'd be delighted to subscribe to your channel. I'm looking for an interview question about why you want to work as a Contract Management Specialist. This includes grant review, application, grant awards, and amendment, as well as problem issues. I'm not sure what to say in response to this question. I need some assistance there. Thanks. By the way, What if someone is already employed by the government?" How will you respond without using the phrase "I want to work for the government?"

[@mariamahlangu1426]

Hi Richard one of the key performance areas is: Financial administration of the office ( budget tracking stationery orders) what can i expect from this question

[@CareerVidz]

You can expect questions about your experience with budget management, your approach to tracking office expenses, and your proficiency in ordering and managing office supplies efficiently. The interviewer might ask for specific examples of how you've optimised budget allocations or streamlined the ordering process in previous roles. They may also inquire about your strategies for cost-saving and ensuring the office operates within its financial means. I hope this helps!

[@pgn1993]

I have an interview tomorrow - I tend to over communicate and may end up giving the 'long version'. Is this a problem?

[@CareerVidz]

My advice would be to try to rehearse your answers in front of a mirror before your interview so you know exactly what so say in the interview. Best of luck, you've got this!

[@dxps26]

Great video - a small request - can you adjust the gain on your mic? the audio is clipping and it really makes the video a bit fatiguing to listen to.

not using the STAR method?

[@CareerVidz]

The star method is great for answering behavioural interview questions :)

[@Chloholio]

None of these questions were asked in my interview. It was mainly all technical questions 😭

[@CareerVidz]

What role were you interviewing for? :)

[@funnzypink]

Hi! What kind of technical questions were you asked, and for which role? Thanks for sharing!

[@Chloholio]

@@funnzypink @CareerVidz it was for an entry level engineering position with a federal agency. They asked about different ASTM lab tests, software abilities, and fundamental concepts relevant to the speciality (some of which were asked about in a questionnaire I had to fill out on usajobs prior to submitting my application, so definitely take notes if that’s something you have to do). They also asked about my experience and style working on teams and previous work experience. This video inspired some of the questions I had for the interviewers though, like about how the agency considers vulnerable populations, ecological protection and climate change in their designs. The questions lead to a really interesting 30 minute convo with the interviewers and I think that helped me land the job offer! Always important to do your research prior to applying and interviewing. Not only to land the position, but to ensure it aligns with your values as well!

Hi Richard, how can i answer the interview question "What are your awards or recognization that you have receive in your current role?" if i dont have any. I hope you can make a video for this

[@CareerVidz]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@engineeringvision9507]

Sure here is an answer: "I don't currently have any awards or recognitions but as a dedicated and aspirational person who always aspires to do my best for my employer, I am hopeful that my contributions will be formally recongised in the future".

[@leeklass3907]

Recognition in some government departments might be a favourable letter or email on the service they recieved from somone internal or external to the employer if they believe what you have done is above and beyond your work . Some employers have voucher or cash awards if you are nominated by someone that is an employee of the the same governent organisation you work for . Your manager could nominate you for the way you carried out a task. I always make a note these down and mention these in quarterley appriaal review meetings . Your manager might say in your quarterly review meeting their opiinion of your work based on audits .

[@leeklass3907]

For the British Civil Service this advice is not correct. The tell me about yourself question is a ice breaker question to help put the candidate at ease so that the interview panel get to learn about the candidate by finding they have something in common with or any curiosity question the panel have about the response. You are not scorred on this question . If you follow Richard's advice you will repeat the behaviours and strengths in the job advert which is not what the interview panel are looking for in this question. Yes will be asked asked about the strengths and behaviours use the attached literature to gain understanding of the behaiours and the what and its defined at each job grade . You can use use examples outside work as well as work for your examples. Remember to use the star approach for behaviours. There is a current civil Servant I would suggest you look at their content. Richard where did you get this information from? I mean the source of information not you list of the highest scoring answers.
