如果仅此而已的话,大可不必沮丧。人事公司罗伯特哈夫国际公司(Robert Half International)的调查显示,有些求职者的表现更糟糕,甚至糟糕透顶。问及最古怪、让人印象最深刻的重大求职面试失误时,人事总监和招聘经理给出了一些非常有意思的例子,其中包括:
"The candidate bounced up and down on my carpet and told me I must be highly thought of by the company because I was given such thick carpeting."
“求职者在我的地毯上上蹿下跳,告诉我,我肯定很受公司的赏识,不然不可能给我配这么厚的地毯。”
"One applicant took a brush out of my purse, brushed his hair with it, and left."
“一位求职者从我钱包里拿出一把梳子,用它梳了梳自己的头发,然后扭头就走了。”
"A job seeker told me that, if I didn't hire her, she would have her grandmother put a curse on me."
“一位求职者跟我说,如果我不录用她,她就让她奶奶诅咒我。”
"One candidate challenged the interviewer to arm-wrestle."
“一位求职者竟然要跟面试官掰腕。”
"After a difficult question, the candidate asked if he could leave the room for a moment to meditate."
“面试官问了一个比较难的问题,结果求职者要求到房间外面去思考思考。”
"An applicant sang all of her answers to interview questions."
“有一位求职者从头到尾用唱歌的方式来回答面试官的问题。”
"One candidate handcuffed himself to the desk during the interview."
“有一位求职者在面试的时候用手铐把自己铐在了桌子上。”
