From the course: Expert Tips for Answering Common Interview Questions
Candidate answer and feedback
(upbeat music) - How might a candidate tackle this question? Let's take a look and then I'll share some feedback. - Well, a lot of my spare time lately has been dedicated to teaching myself how to shoot and edit instructional videos. I've been a garage sale shopper for several years and I sell my finds on eBay to pay down my student loan debt. So far I've raised $11,000. People who find out that I do this, often have a lot of questions about how to get started, how to find best stuff, how to market items on eBay. So I've decided to put a few tutorials up on YouTube. That way people can learn through the videos and I gain a new creative skill. - I love this answer. You convey a lot of energy, both with your words and your hand gestures. I'm getting the picture that you're resourceful, financially responsible, willing to share your talents with others, and focused on self-improvement. Now, I might suggest a tiny bit of care, not to get too excited with this answer. You don't want an employer to fear that the side hustle is going to take up so much of your time and attention, that you've got little left for your day job. But you stayed on the right side of the line with your answer. Well done.
