Sure-Fire Interview Closing Statement - 5 magic words to landing the job

[@tonydodd1631]

I did an interview in the UK just after seeing this video, and at the end, I asked for the job, the interviewer loved it, and said he'll push me through. I got the job :) Thanks

[@DonGeorgevich]

That is so awesome! Especially in the UK, where everyone prides themselves on politeness.

I just found this video but wanted to say: I went through school, took many tests, had to go through 5 different interviews with 4 different supervisors at each interview to get a job at a Chevron refinery. The coveted job is high paying so I worked very hard to get to the interview. During the last of the 5 interview's they asked me if I had any questions for them, I said yes, can I please have the job? I am here to work hard so I can put my children through college and build a retirement for myself. (I mentioned a few other things and said: thank you for your consideration, shook each one of their hands and also thanked each one for their time.) I GOT THE JOB OUT OF OVER 3000 APPLICANTS. It works!!!! Just ask for the job. :)

I think those missing the point, are those that cannot read people and are probably disgruntled by ‘going in for the kiss’ while their date wasn’t vibing. In the reverse, if you’re the hiring manager and someone who you didn’t build rapport or seemed to not be a good fit and they asked you for the job, that only further proves people who can’t read the room wouldn’t have been an easy personality to hire. I’ve never been turned down for a job I actually wanted and therefore asked for.

[@socialite8218]

Congratulations on your new role 🎉

[@juki3451]

They likely picked you 'cause without qualifications or experience, the company knows you'll accept a lower pay rate than the industry standard & less likely you'll ask for a raise anytime soon (qualified candidates knows to ask after 6 months or can easily leave taking their qualifications to another company if not satisfied). I should know 'cause I've been in HR for 20 plus years & the more eager a candidate willing to learn on the job without formal educational background or experience, the better chance of getting the job offer since these (green) canadates are seen as more likely to accept a lower salary, be more loyal & (sorry to say) easier to manipulate. We pass up qualified candidates, not because we didn't see them as a good fit, but because they knew with their experience & qualifications, their self-worth & know how much they should be earning. Sorry, but in 99% of the time, it comes down to the bottom line & who is willing to work the hardest with the least amount of pay. Companies likes to have the upper hand & employees who see them as giving them a chance not the other way around, the employee bringing skills & value to the company. It also helps to be good-looking. Just remember, your job is not your friend nor your co-workers. You would be surprised how many employees throws other colleagues under the bus when it comes down to the job. Be professional, always know your self-worth, move up early into your employment (the longer you stay in a position, the more likely you will be passed up for promotions, don't be shy to ask for a raise especially after a performance review, if no review, ask for one after 6 months...if denied, start seeking employment elsewhere) & never put your complete trust in your employer....you are just a number with an expiry date just make sure you get noticed early on & ignore jealous colleagues that will try to find ways to block you from getting promoted. Never ever complain to your colleagues (they are not your friend & some will report you), manager or HR, you'll be seen as a disgruntled employee that will be likely blacklisted for promotions & most likely the first to be let go if need be. If you are not happy, seek employment elsewhere.....your job will not be tailored to you, but no company owns you even if they think they do. Many don't care about their employees & gets enjoyment making their employees' life as miserable as possible knowing they sign their paychecks. Many don't care about you, but how much money you are making for them. Good luck👍

Thank you for what you do. I'm 66 and was laid off from my IT job after 21 years at the end of July. I watched hours of your videos (and those of others) and worked my butt off and started my new job in early September. So a one-month forced vacation. The new job is a lot harder, not as comfortable, but it is an opportunity and I'm taking it. Anyway, your videos are encouraging, helpful, insightful, and very much needed for those of us who need another shot at getting a job. A few days after the second interview for this job they made an offer. I had already scheduled a third interview later that day with a different company. This one seemed like a better fit even though the pay is a bit lower. I called the other people and scrubbed the third interview. No regrets.

A month after you die? Not sure if that's a typo or a, funny statement. I worked in I.T. for 34 years. 22 at the place where i was laid off. Frankly they could've fired me way before that. I had Extreme burnout and was not the best employee even though I wish i was. I didn't give up but sometimes it seemed like quitting with notice would have been the more correct thing to do. But I had to keep doing my best and showing up for my kids That was 3 years ago and I have used my time since then for a lot of good things. Mostly supporting people by using my time to be helpful and care giving and also I put getting my rest and regrouping first. During my 34 years of employment I worked at least 40 hours a week and sonetimes 2 or 3 jobs and had no real vacation. Raised my children and maintained a home almost completely on my own. For me, in 2019, when I was laid off i decided to take my retirement out of the middle. When I go back to work, I'm working until I die unless I get too old to work. Taking my family history into consideration, my chances of getting old are slim. It was important to me to rest up to be the best I can be in my next employment. Also to know what its like to not have to punch a clock for more tha 2 days at a time before I die. I'm set. I've retired and returned from my rest. I am ready to go back to work. The world has changed so much since 2019, I'm wanting to make a more positive contribution to the world on part 2 of my life. I wonder if it will be possible to get another I.T.position and if I can do better than i did before. More importantly than money is being a valuable asset. I hope I get the chance.

We had a nice conversation and at the end I commented that I thought that I was well suited for the requirements of the position and that I would be excited to work with him - he responded with the question regarding my ability to do the job and I responded positively and asked him for the opportunity to prove myself - end of story I started the job a week later and was highly successful in the position.

I am interviewing with DHS for a contracting specialist program... I'm so glad I found your channel, it has definitely given more confidence!

[@wondersaz]

Dear Don, I wanted to thank you for your videos. I went through a 4 stage process interview and your videos have helped me a lot. I got the offer and contract two days ago. You have helped me preparing, anticipate questions, be confident Thank you so much 🙏

[@cortex333]

I have asked that question at every single job interview since my 1st job and I have ALWAYS GOT THE JOB offer after an interview (my grandfather told me to do it)...I just have a hard time to GET an interview. I have a weird foreign name, im 57, and with foreign (Hungarian) education. Cant change my name, cuz it cost over $2000 to do that on my greencard and I dont have 2K. BUT the "asking for the job" or asking "well, when can I start? " (Big smile) always does it! Never not one interviewer could stop laughing out aloud :)

[@MarkSkrzypczak]

My current job, I worded it differently, but it worked. I said, "when will I expect an offer?" I got the offer the next day.

[@DonGeorgevich]

you are awesome. Way to be...

[@Mr_Banker222]

Well said Don, this man just oozes wisdom. I'm a go getter type of person I've had many opportunities turn me away.. I can whole heartily say this, I was so proactive 10 doors closed 1 opened that's all I needed. Speak up for yourselves folks, it's okay to tell the world what you want.

[@DonGeorgevich]

nicely said

[@ActionHank]

I love that someone such as yourself made a video for this. It's not complicated by any means, but I think people build it up more than it should be. Anyone can wow the interviewer during their time, but having that confidence is usually what edges out your interview over the others. I've been interviewing the last few weeks and I can wholeheartedly say this works people. Of course I did my homework prior and did what was needed to put forth an amazing interview, but in all of them I'd close with thanking them for their time, touching back on small buzz words to keep me in mind with my qualities and so on, and then I'd end it with "So, when can I start?" I might not have had immediate responses of you're hired, but no joke, 2 of the 3 times I got a call back with an offer on my drive home! Anyway, I wish all of you the best of luck landing that job you've always wanted :-)

[@giuseppearcelo]

Thank you Don for helping me prepare for my claims manager interview! It went amazingly well and I expect good news from them sometime next week. *I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO BINGE WATCH HIS VIDEOS PRIOR TO AN INTERVIEW*

[@benjaminmaglaqui6433]

Can I have the Job? These 5 words should be delivered with profound sincerity. Been working for over 30 years in manufacturing industry, this is first time to learn these words. Thank you so much for sharing, and I will use this for my incoming interviews.

[@Kxparker1]

Hey Don I'm in Cleveland OH as well and work for 1 of the 3 largest companies in Northeast OH. Applying for my first director position and will definitely do this in the interview with the hiring Business Leader. Thank You

[@lisadiaz4890]

I played your videos back to back whether I was in front watching. or just in the back for listening. I wrote notes and I took screenshots and I applied everything I learned for my interview. I landed the job in my 2nd interview!!! I'm so excited! I treated it like a meeting. I made sure to make them feel special in that I let them know I researched their backgrounds that related to the job. I actually also had a physical prop of a color of mug that is part of their logo. I made sure that I added 'me' or 'I' to a question of a daily task in their line of work. I instilled that I would make a great fit to the role and why. We were holding hands by the end of interview and I let them know it was my job! I got an offer 4.5hrs later!! Unheard of. TY!!!

[@007blond]

I got hired to work for an insurance company today without a degree and only prior retail experience thanks to your videos! Love this content! lol

[@mrkind6153]

In my life time I been on 100 interviews, I tried every possible technique, the quiet , the ask questions, the direct eye contact , the big white million dollar smile, the super suited man that they complimented me on being, at the end of the day it's all falls down to one thing, it's called having faith and destiny if the job is meant for you it will happen if it's not I don't care what u do what u say what u look like it won't happen. And to reply to what you are saying now I asked for the job at end of an excellent interview were my confidence level scared them and they did not call me or offer me the job. So these are all good tips but at the end of the day if that job is meant for you it will happen.

[@laurelwatson3960]

I worked with a woman who moved to New York City to be an artist. It was her dream and she has just enough money to land a job within a month. If she didn’t get a job she would have to move back to her hometown. It got down to the final day and no one had hired her. The people she was meeting were brash and to the point. She was desperate and had nothing to lose so she went into a bookstore and asked the owner if he was hiring. He was giving her a bit of a runaround so she yelled at him, “I need a f*cking job! Are you going to hire me or not?! He handed her a plié of books and yelled back, “Take those f*cking books back to that f*cking bookshelf shelf and stack them! You’re f*cking hired.”

How did they react at first? How long did it take for them to offer job?

[@TLS999]

I just wanted to say one thing: You've solutions for all the questions that I had in my mind before going into an interview SPECIAL THANKS TO YOU SIR

[@seanwatts8342]

I used the phrase "If you have the work, _I'll do it."_ It was at the end with the senior manager who asked to see me after the two engineers I started the interview with. It might not be the exact verbiage for every interview but I'm in a stereotypically 'manly' (for lack of a better term) Field Engineer position. I got a GREAT offer... great idea, Don.

[@AB-bc9tf]

In watching these videos I realize that before I got my last job that I loved I watched similar videos to freshen myself up and my skills. These videos really help me have a better understanding of how to communicate my skills to potential employers.

[@DonGeorgevich]

That is awesome!

[@Labyrinth_thoughts]

Tried this, got the job after this in a few hours. Mind you, before that the hiring manager seemed indecisive after 3 rounds of interviews.

[@drpill1230]

4:50 I can’t believe that actually worked, I had a 90 minute interview the scheduled time was 60 minutes at the end I said after discussing about most of the job details at the end I said after a moment of thinking was “I made my decision, I want to work here when can I start.” They immediately we’re laughing, I was still confident and gave me a tour around the office. A week later I got the offer letter in writing. The interview was for a associate civil engineering position and during the interview it was derailed multiple times, why are talking about scuba diving instead of engineering so I had to steer the conversation back to Engineering side. I didn’t sleep before the interview, was completely sleep deprived and the interview was somewhat awkward at first then went better later on. It felt like a conversation than an interview. Pro tip: Be genuine and confident about saying those words. Thank you

[@iprocess1830]

I've always asked: So, when do I start? And it's never failed. Not once. It shows confidence. And confidence goes a long way.

[@AL-fw9ek]

Hey Don, I was offered a dream job after trying your technique! I closed two interviews with a closing statement and then I asked for the job! It works! Your the best! Thank you!

I've never interviewed, and not been offered the position. My advice is 1. Have a great, and truthful, CV. 2. Dress well 3. Be confident 4. Know your value 5. Research the company

[@erinogden3448]

I used to think this was a "pushy" way to get the job. But after listening to you Im going to give this a shot at my next interview because I a actively looking for a different job. What could it hurt. If they say no well on to the next right. Thank you Don

[@Ratgirl505]

I had two interviews and the last one was between me and another person, beside the rapport and examples of my work, I closed with asking for the job. The three on the panel smiled and looked and other and I broke that saying I look forward to moving on in the process. I got the position the next day.

[@tracygarner5912]

OMG no wonder I get so many offers during the interview. I always wondered why. I always ask for the job if I want it and want to start immediately. Some companies I don't want to work for at the end of the interview. It works. 9 times out of 10 I get the job.

[@Pthaloskies]

Really smart! There's another benefit. When you ask the employer "Can I have the job?" the most likely response will be something like, well we have other interviews to do and we'll get back with you. Because of the direct interest they probably will get back to you one way or the other so you're not left wondering. When they do and the answer is "no" ask them to let you know how you could have better fit their job, so you can improve.

[@philliplaroche3561]

I've been watching a lot of videos that you've done and it really helped me and with your help I've found the job been there a week and a half and that time I've learned a lot even got a forklift license thank you for all the help. I was out of work for almost 2 years so it's been hard to get back into a working state but I'm improving everyday I work with two good guys and patient with me

[@grandetaco4416]

I had interviewed with a company years before, they remembered me from years ago. I said the reason I am back is because I KNOW I can do this job and I want to do this job. I was being honest, really liked what they were doing. Never heard back. I gave up on that company because obviously they had some kind of bias that I wasn't privy to.

[@jasonmarsh88]

It works! I saw a couple of your videos yesterday and then went to an interview today. I was more authentic than I might have been (thanks to your tip); I took initiative speaking "their" language (felt risky but they ate it up); and at the end, knowing we had great rapport, I actually said, "I want this job." They were briefly taken aback and then lit up: they bent over backwards holding my hands to be onboarded...getting started in a job in which I'm projected to earn four times(!) my previous income as a poker dealer!

[@tomparker-s7j]

this something that bever crossed my mind. I am going to try this during my next interview. It is so obvious that I would have never thought about doing this.

[@veggieman2538]

Or you can say "How soon can I start?". It's kinda effective based on my experience. This question/statement shows your interest/positive mindset that you can do the job.

[@DonGeorgevich]

absolutely, but you need to be in rapport with them and you need to feel that they feel the same way. make sense?

[@r.m.7138]

I have said "How soon can I start?" It has not worked for me. I guess the employer and I were not on the same page.

Glad it was helpful!

[@HelloKittyNYC7]

I usually ask what the next step is in the process, rather than "Can I have the job". I think that flows a lot better than what you're suggesting.

[@Pthaloskies]

Great question. And it gives you more ammo for your closing statement. Telling them you're on the same page as them with what they expect in detail out of their employee in the next 6 months is bound to set you apart.

[@DonGeorgevich]

exactly.

[@savage_han]

Folks, don’t ever ask “can I get the job”. They will most likely say, “we will get back to you” and never hear from them again

I had a job interview recently and I think it went pretty well. I asked 4 questions and and the 5th one I took the risk and asked can I have the Job. The interviewer Laughed lightly in surprise and said, " I can't give you an answer to that yet but we may have an answer for you by the end of the week." In fact they added if we can't hire you for this role I think we may be able to have you join another team 🤷🏿‍♂️. So yeah wish me luck, I'm expecting an update tomorrow. I hope I haven't messed up my chances by this question... I left it to last and mentioned that this is a bit of a cheeky question but I have to ask 😅. I think they liked that about me.

@@DonGeorgevich I thought I might update you with the news. I applied for for an entry level Digital Marketing job, they liked me at me first but thought that I wasn't experienced enough to handle a big client campaign. They did however offer me to go on another campaign and go through another set of interviews. Long story short, I got the Job, and I asked "Can I have the Job" once in my initial interview, didn't get that one but they still offered me the same role/salary for a different campaign.
