Okay, so maybe your last job interview wasn’t perfect. You might have felt you hesitated too long when asked about your greatest weakness or forgotten to mention an important accomplishment with special relevance to the job opening at hand.
你或许觉得自己上次求职面试不够表现完美。比如,被问到自己最大的缺点时,犹豫的时间太长;或者忘了谈起自己的某项重要成就,而这项成就与面试的工作关系特殊。
Well, cheer up. According to surveys conducted by staffing firm Robert Half International, you could have done worse. A lot worse. Asked to recall the weirdest, most unforgettable job interview blunders they’ve seen, human resources executives and hiring managers came up with some doozies, including these:
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。
"One applicant sent his sister to interview in his place."
“一位男性求职者竟然让他妹妹来替他面试。
