I love listening to loads of different voices, listening to the tones, sounds and uniqueness of our voice.

Sometimes you have to repeat the word no as some people are pretty persistent. Check out part 3 of 4 part series of saying no effectively.

It might help to give these alternatives too: Not, ‘Not at this time’, not ‘I don’t think so’, not ‘I’m not sure’, not ‘Maybe next time’.

Try it the next time you get asked to do something you really don't want to do.

So we are still in the say no series and today's tip is to say no with assertion once and leave it at that.

It might help to give these alternatives too: Not, ‘Not at this time’, not ‘I don’t think so’, not ‘I’m not sure’, not ‘Maybe next time’.

Try it the next time you get asked to do something you really don't want to do.

Just say no. You feel bad? Naaaaah doesn’t feel bad. The word no is mega-powerful and has an impact. Say the word daily until you get more comfy with it. If it helps give a No+ reason why, if it helps to soften the blow.

It might help to give these alternatives too: Not, ‘Not at this time’, not ‘I don’t think so’, not ‘I’m not sure’, not ‘Maybe next time’.

Try it the next time you get asked to do something you really don't want to do.

Let’s jump in here.

Now to speak effectively, it starts first in your mind. So,  what is going on in your head? You need to have positive thoughts. I mean can you imagine Usain Bolt on the day of all of those three Olympic gold medal races and what his mindset was like? I am sure he was coming with a focus to smash and annihilate all the competition. If he thought for one second that he could not do it, then he would not have done it. I think Usain Bolt believed he could do it, he trained for it and he did it and he #gotthejobdone. Plus he slam-dunked everybody at the race too. You need to have the mindset of Usain Bolt like a winning and successful Olympic champion in regards to your speaking effectively skills. You need to think you can, believe it and it will be done.  Someone who comes to get the gold and is not leaving the track until they get it, that is you my friend in regards to sharpening up how effectively you speak.

How do you think your mindset is going?

I love listening to loads of different voices, listening to the tones, sounds and uniqueness of our voice.

7) Handshake

Your handshake it needs to be strong firm, don't squeeze or crack someone's knuckles but make sure you give a firm shake with good eye contact at the same time.  If you don't know how to shake hands properly, then learn with your friends and family.

8) Smile

Smile and look your interviews in the eye and they're going to smile back. Make sure you keep smiling throughout the whole interview because you know what smiling does ? Nope, let me tell you, it raises the tone and brings a joyful sound into your voice.

So I have brought back this topic until we close out 2019 with a bang and to give more tips and hints on how to speak effectively in interviews. 

Your voice is crucial to the first impression you make in an interview.

Some people can be very self-conscious of the way they speak particularly if you got English as a second foreign language. It might be that you speak English with a twang or an accent that not everybody can understand on the first go. Then you might try to mask it and you don't really sound like yourself at all and you sound more like a weirdo then yourself. Your voice is unique as your thumbprint and it makes you who you are, so rather than mumble or trying to disguise your voice because of your accent, just embrace who you are.

I think rather than worry about “does your accent sound like x,y and z.” Focus on sharing your knowledge, skills and expertise that got you booked for the interview it doesn't matter what accent you are using to speak English with. Just speak, clearly and a little slower than usual so your interviewers can clearly understand what you are saying.

I think what helps in an interview is to think first and then answer. Also speaking a slower version of your normal speaking voice is key as it gives the interviewers ears a chance to adjust. They are probably trying to work out how you're saying things as you go along.

I have loads more tips in my free sample course out now called "How To Speak Effectively In Interviews."  Click the link for the free sample and I would love to hear your thoughts on how it helped you.

Part 3

When you're in the interview people often use the star competency interview technique to interview and it's basically a tool to help them gain an understanding of who you are, what you can do and how are you going to fit in the team.

S: situation

T:  task

A: action

R: result

So when you answer the questions, always respond in the order of this technique. So you might say that the situation was there was no water in the office due to a strike. So the task was to get water into the building. Then an action you personal took was to get a shopping trolley and buy 5x big bottles of water and the result was none of the team were dehydrated on a hot summer's day.

6) Dresscode

Ok so getting ready to nail your next interview just by speaking effectively it's not just by speaking though.  It's also, how you dress, like make sure that you look appropriate for the industry going into to. So if you going into a fashion house, look like a trendsetter or in a bank then wear a sharp suit.

Part 2 

Ask questions 

When you're going for an interview you need to make sure that you're prepared with engaging questions to make it look like you want the job.  Try to prepare stuff like:

What are the opportunities for promotion?

How can I implement new innovation?

What are the multi-agency working opportunities? 

When will I be notified if I'm successful,

How will I be notified, 

When does this role start 

Is there going to be a chance of a handover with the person leave him

How many people will I be working with 

What training is offered 

What floor will I be located on 

What are the company benefits 

What's the dress code what are the hours 

What are the times for x?

As you can see the list goes on and on the list goes on and on and on as you see.

Thank you note

Send a handwritten thank-you note or card to the person who interviewed you. Make sure you're nice you speak and encouraging to everyone.  Leave a good impression the moment you come in and when you leave because the interviewer may even go and ask the person who's bringing you into the interview room.  So you don't want to shoot yourself in the foot just by being rude to someone.
