Okay, let’s start working through the 11 most powerful things you can say in your interview. Write these down.

Number one, make sure you say this at the start of your job interview. Thank you for giving me this opportunity. I am excited about the possibility of working for your company. Saying thank you tells the hiring manager you have good manners, and saying that you are excited means you want to do great things in your work.

Number two, in your job interview, instead of saying I am a good team worker, say this instead. I am a supportive collaborator. Saying that you are a supportive collaborator tells the hiring manager you understand the importance of working closely with others to achieve the company’s goals.

Number three, instead of saying I will do a great job for you, say this instead. I will work hard to add value in the role. Saying the words add value in your job interview tells the hiring manager you understand that you have a duty to give them a great return on your salary.

Number four, make sure you say this when answering the question, why do you want to work for us? I have researched your company, and I am attracted to your values and positive workplace culture. Saying you have researched the company informs the hiring manager you are serious about working there long-term.

Number five, instead of saying I don’t have much experience, say this instead. Although I am new to the workplace, I do learn quickly and respond well to feedback. Saying that you respond well to feedback will impress the hiring manager because they want to hire someone willing to grow, improve and develop in the role.

Number six, instead of saying I am a hard worker, say this instead. I am accountable and consistently deliver results. Using the word accountable will impress the hiring manager. It means you take responsibility for your duties. Saying you will deliver results is also a great thing to say in your interview because results are what make a company successful.

Number seven, instead of saying I don’t have any weaknesses, say this instead. My biggest weakness is that I struggle to say no to people, which means I sometimes overcommit. That is a great weakness to give in a job interview because it tells the hiring manager you are the type of person who will take on lots of work.

Number eight, instead of saying I’ll do whatever you need me to do, say this instead. I already have a plan of action that outlines what I want to achieve in the first 30 days in this role. Saying you have a Plan of Action tells the Hiring Manager you are organized and prepared to do great things in your work. If you really want to impress, say that you have brought your Plan of Action with you to the interview and you would like to give the hiring manager a copy!

Number nine, when answering the tough interview question, Where do you see yourself in five years? Say this: I can see myself building a long-term career at your company. Saying this reduces the hiring manager’s biggest fear. Will this person leave in six months’ time? It also immediately differentiates you from the candidates who just want any job.

Number 10, instead of saying I want a salary of $55,000, say this instead. Based on my skills, knowledge and experience, I am looking for a salary in the region of $55,000. This tells the hiring manager you know your worth, but you are willing to negotiate.

Number 11, instead of saying I don’t have any questions, say this instead. What is it that the top-performing employees do in this company to achieve success? Asking questions at the end of your job interview is a great way to further demonstrate to the hiring manager that you genuinely want to make a difference in the role.
