  • - We're just down to a few applicants here

  • and it is between you and two other applicants.

  • Maybe you could share with me

  • what can you do that no one else can do?

  • - Oh, mm-hmm.

  • ♪ I believe I can fly

  • ♪ I believe I can touch the sky

  • ♪ I think about it every night and day

  • Spread my wings and fly away

  • - When the interviewer is asking you this question,

  • what can you do that no one else can,

  • chances are they're looking at a number of applicants

  • and not so sure.

  • Hm, you seem okay,

  • but what makes you different from everybody else?

  • Think about it.

  • They have been looking at a lot of resumes

  • and chances are they all kind of look the same,

  • and they've been doing a lot of interviews.

  • No one kind of is memorable.

  • So how could you make yourself stand out without bragging?

  • This is not a time to brag, right?

  • It's not just, oh, you don't want to answer something

  • that's so generic.

  • Oh, I'm hardworking.

  • Or, I have X years of experience,

  • or that I work well with people.

  • You don't want those type of answers

  • because you sound like the same, just like everybody else.

  • What are some of the unique skill sets that only you have,

  • that you could communicate,

  • that you have some kind of results,

  • that you could bring to the table, right?

  • For the company that you are applying for.

  • Let me give you a couple examples.

  • Let's say, I am applying for a position for a manager

  • for a YouTube channel.

  • And someone asks me the question,

  • so what can you do that no one else can do?

  • I will say something like this.

  • In my last position, I helped to grow the YouTube channel

  • from 100,000 subscribers to over a million subscribers

  • in three years.

  • This increase was a direct result of my ability to know

  • what people want, what viewers want on YouTube

  • and being able to understand analytics

  • and create content that people would come back

  • watch again and again, and subscribe to.

  • I am confident that my skills will help your company

  • to grow your YouTube subscriber base as well.

  • That's just one simple example.

  • You see, instead of giving just a vague generic answer,

  • a reply like that, it talks about a very specific result

  • that you have been able to produce.

  • And then you're also communicating to the interviewer,

  • what could you bring to the table?

  • It always goes back to self-interest.

  • They want to know what can you do to the company.

  • What value can you bring?

  • Are you going to be an asset?

  • - Hm, a-ha!

  • - That's what they're always thinking.

  • So let me give you one more example.

  • Let's say, you're applying for a digital marketing

  • online funnel builder position,

  • and they asked you this question,

  • what can you do that no one else can?

  • Well, here is a simple reply that you could use.

  • I am a digital marketer with a focus on online funnels.

  • Because I also have a degree in psychology,

  • I'm able to combine what I've learned from university,

  • understanding human psychology,

  • but combining that with technology

  • and create very effective funnel that converts.

  • I believe I bring a very unique perspective

  • when it comes to digital marketing and funnel building.

  • And I'm very confident with my abilities

  • and skill sets and your brand and your product lines

  • we could generate significant revenue online.

  • You see how that works.

  • You share a little bit of your background,

  • you go back to talk about what's in it for them.

  • And that's how you answer the question.

  • This is a pretty straightforward question.

  • All you need to do is practice.

  • You practice some more.

  • Now, of course, there are so many other questions

  • that they could ask you.

  • So make sure you click the link below or somewhere here,

  • check out the playlist.

  • We have a number of videos that are designed to help you

  • to handle any questions that might come up during

  • your next interview.

  • And don't forget to hit the like button.

  • And yes, don't forget to smash that subscribe button

  • and turn on the notification.

  • I'll see you in the next video.
