雙語面試:面試時該考慮到的7個問題
來源:網(wǎng)絡(luò)發(fā)布時間:2009-07-25
If you are going for an interview as a prospective employee then you should do some research. Read the job description and requirements carefully. Browse the web site to see how the organization presents itself. Search for news items and comments about the company on news sites and blogs.
For the interview itself you should dress smartly and appropriately. It is important to have some questions prepared and here are a few that could really help:
1. What exactly would my day-to-day responsibilities be?It is essential that you clearly understand your role and the tasks that you would be expected to undertake. It is easy to make assumptions and get the wrong impression of what the work would be so it is vital for both sides that there is clarity in what is expected of you. If the interviewer cannot give a clear answer then this is a worrying sign, so politely follow up with more questions. Some people even ask to see exactly where they will sit.
2. What are the opportunities for training and career advancement?This question serves two purposes. It helps you to understand where the job might lead and what skills you might acquire. It also signals that you are ambitious and thinking ahead.
3. What is the biggest challenge facing the organization today?This sort of question takes the interview away from the detail and towards strategic issues. It allows to you see and discuss the bigger picture. It proves that you are interested in more than just the 9 to 5 aspects of the job. It can lead to interesting discussions that can show you in a good light - especially if you have done some intelligent preparation. If appropriate you can follow up this question with some questions about the objectives of the department and the manager who is interviewing you.
4. When did you join?After the interviewer has asked a number of questions about you it can make a good change to ask a gentle question about them. People often like talking about themselves and if you can get them talking about their progress in the company you can learn useful and interesting things.
5. What are the criteria that you are looking for in the successful candidate for this position?The job advertisement may have listed what was wanted in a candidate but it is very useful to hear the criteria directly from the interviewer. The more that you can discover about what they want and how they will make the decision the better placed you are to influence that decision.
6. How do you feel that I measure up to your requirements for this position?This follows on naturally from the previous questions. It may seem a little pushy but it is a perfectly fair thing to ask. In sales parlance this is a ‘trial close’. If they say that you are a good fit then you can ask whether there is any reason you might not be offered the job. If they say that you are lacking in some key skill or attribute then you can move into objection handling mode and point out some relevant experience or a countervailing strength.
7. Would you like to hear what I could do to really help your department?If you want the job then this is a great question to ask at the end of the interview. Most interviewers will reply, ‘Yes.’ Drawing on what you have learnt in the conversation, you can give a short sales pitch on why you fit the criteria and why your strengths and ideas will siginficantly assist the boss to meet their objectives. Make it short, direct and clear with the emphasis on the benefits for them of having you in the team. At the end ask something like, ‘how does that sound?’
Many candidates take a passive role at the interview. They competently answer the questions that are put to them but they never take the initiative by asking intelligent questions that steer the interview in a helpful direction. If you are a proactive candidate who asks the sorts of questions given above then you will be seen as more dynamic and you will significantly increase your chances of being offered the job.
如果你要為了工作而去面試,那么,你應(yīng)該做些研究。仔細(xì)閱讀該項工作說明和要求。瀏覽網(wǎng)站以便知曉公司如何運作。在新聞網(wǎng)站和博客上搜尋關(guān)于該公司的新新聞和新評論。
在面試時,你應(yīng)該穿著得體適當(dāng)。準(zhǔn)備些問題很重要,而且有些問題真得非常有用:
1.你的日常工作究竟是什么?明確知道你要擔(dān)當(dāng)?shù)慕巧c任務(wù)是必要的。憑空想象,還對工作作出了錯誤的判斷很容易,所以對雙方來講,明確你期望什么是至關(guān)重要的。如果考官不給你明確的答復(fù),那么這就是一個讓人擔(dān)憂的信號,所以要有禮貌的提出更多的問題。一些人甚至?xí)䥺査麄冏坏木_位置在哪。
2.有哪些培訓(xùn)機會和升遷機會?這個問題涵蓋了兩個目的。有利于你明白工作方向是什么和你要具備什么技巧。這也暗示著你要具有雄心壯志、還要未雨綢繆。
3. 公司現(xiàn)在面臨的最大挑戰(zhàn)是什么?這類問題把面試從細(xì)節(jié)方面帶入了關(guān)鍵問題。這就使你可以思考并討論更大的領(lǐng)域。這也證明了你的興趣不僅僅是朝九晚五的工作。這能引向能展示自我的有趣討論——尤其是當(dāng)你作為完美的準(zhǔn)備時。如果合適的話,你可以深入這問題并跟進一些關(guān)于面試你的經(jīng)理和該部門的目標(biāo)之類的問題。
4. 您何時加入的呢?在考官問完問題后,你不妨問一個關(guān)于他們的問題。人喜歡談?wù)撟约海绻隳艿玫剿麄冊谠摴镜陌l(fā)展經(jīng)歷,那么你會學(xué)得非常有用且有趣的東西。
5. 對這份工作而言,你認(rèn)為成功求職者的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是什么?招聘廣告也許列出了他們想要的求職者應(yīng)具備什么,但是讓他們直接聽到的話是很有用的。你越多地發(fā)現(xiàn)他們想要什么和他們?nèi)绾螞Q定,那么你就越能有效地影響他們的決定。
6. 你怎么覺得我適合這份工作呢?這自然地承接了前面的問題。這似乎有點愛出風(fēng)頭,但是也是值得去問的。用銷售用語講,這叫做“審判結(jié)束”。如果他們說你很適合這份工作,那么你要問你有沒有什么地方不適合這份工作。如果他們說你在某些關(guān)鍵技巧或者特質(zhì)上有欠缺,那么你可以進入異議處理模式,并找出一些相關(guān)經(jīng)驗或彌補措施。
7. 你愿意聽到關(guān)于我對你們的部門很有用處之類的話嗎?如果你想要這份工作,在面試結(jié)束時,提出這個問題是很不錯的。大部分的考官會說“是”�;谀阍谡勗捴兴@得的信息,你可以簡要說明你為什適合這份工作以及你的能力與點子為什么有助于你的老板實現(xiàn)他們是目標(biāo)。扼要、直接、清楚地陳述他們錄用你的好處。在結(jié)束時不妨說些諸如“這聽起來怎么樣?”之類的話。
很多求職者是被動地應(yīng)對面試。他們得體地回答了向他們提出的問題,但是卻沒有在有益的方面上主動地提出富有智慧的問題來駕馭面試。如果你是個前瞻性的求職者,且問了類似上述的問題,你會被認(rèn)為更富有活力,也就明顯地會提高你獲得工作的機會。
