Four Steps to a Better Job Interview

实现更完美面试的4个步骤

Here's a question I often hear: What are some things I can do to prepare for a job interview?

我经常听到有人这样问:我需要为面试做些什么准备呢?

Answer: There really aren't too many things in life more awkward than a job interview. You're dressed in formal business clothing, sitting across from a stranger. This stranger has the right to ask you anything from the most elaborate to the most mundane questions. And you have to spend an hour talking about nothing but yourself. Actually it sounds pretty similar to a blind date!

答案:生活中确实没有多少比面试更让人为难的事情了。你要穿正规的职业装、坐在一个陌生人面前。而这位陌生人有权利问你任何问题,从最细节的问题到最平凡的问题。并且,你要用一个小时的时间来谈谈你自己。实际上面试的感觉就跟相亲差不多。

Just like a blind date, there are something you need to avoid and something you need to do if you want to make it to the next level.

和相亲一样,如果你想进入下一阶段的话,在面试中有些事能做、有些事是要避免的。

1. Don't try to outwit or outguess the interviewer.

不要试图欺瞒面试官或者和面试官斗智斗勇

Most candidates go into a job interview thinking it's a contest where the goal is to defeat the interviewer in some type of battle of wits.

很多参加面试的求职者都认为面试是一种竞争,而最终目的就是用某种巧智赢过面试官。

"Aha, Brad has asked me this question. Clearly, that is some type of trick question. I just don't know what the trick is yet. Here's how I would normally answer the question, but instead I should say what he probably wants to hear."

“啊,布拉德问过我这个问题。很明显,这个问题有点诡异。我只是还不知道是哪里诡异。通常情况下我会这样回答这个问题,但是在这里我要说出的则是他想听到的答案。”

That thinking is when good interviews go bad. Sit back, relax, and pretend it is a conversation with a friend.

这样的想法会搞砸一次不错的面试。面试时,你只需要坐直了,放松,然后将这次面试当成一次和朋友的对话。

2. Read the job description.

阅读工作要求

I call the job description the "cheat sheet" for the interview. Chances are the items listed on the job description will come up in the interview. For instance, if the job description says, "looking for creative problem-solvers" one of the questions you will receive is, "Give me an example of when you creatively solved a problem."

我称工作要求为面试的“备忘录”。在工作要求中列出的每一项都会在面试中谈到。比如说,如果在工作要求中声明“要求有创意的问题解决者”,那么在面试中你可能会被问到的问题之一就会是“举个实例说明你曾经是如何有创意地解决了一个难题吧。” 3. Have reasons for everything you've done.

你做的每一件事情都有理由

Most companies conduct behavioral interviews. It means they are more interested in the hows and the whys as opposed to the whats. They want to know what makes you tick. An interviewer is not simply going to say, "Oh, I see that you worked as a sales rep in your last job. Cool."

很多公司倡导行为面试。这就是说他们对你是怎样完成任务比较感兴趣,而不是你做了些什么。他们想要知道的你做一件事情的原因。一位面试官不会只单单和你说这样的话:“我看到你上份工作是销售代表。非常好。”

That interviewer may spend about 10 minutes asking questions about the job: "What did you like about the job? What were your accomplishments? What were your biggest mistakes?"

面试官可能会用10分钟的时间来提问关于工作的问题“你对上份工作中意的是什么?有哪些成就?你曾犯过的最大的错误是什么?”

And on and on. Be sure you have answers.

还有其他很多很多类似的问题,要确保你到时候都有答案回答这些问题。

4. Ask questions.

提问

There is nothing more damaging than not having a single question at the end of an interview. It shows that you have no curiosity or interest in the organization. Almost every interviewer will leave about five minutes at the end of the interview to answer questions. Make sure you have a couple. Two or three questions is appropriate, and they can be either personal questions -- "What do you like about working here?" -- or they can be business questions -- "How has the Internet affected your business?"

没有什么比在面试临近尾声的时候你没有什么问题要问面试官更糟糕了。因为这意味着你对该公司没有什么好奇心或兴趣。基本所有的面试官都会在最后留大概五分钟的时间来回答你的提问。要确保你准备好了几个相关的问题。两个或三个问题比较合适,你的提问可以是像“您是否喜欢在这里工作?”这样的私人问题,也可以是像“网络是怎样影响贵公司的业务的?”这样比较专业的问题。

There you have it. Four quick ways that you can make sure you ace the interview and have the job offers rolling in. Good luck!

现在你已经掌握了在面试中能够让你成功的四个快捷方法,工作机会近在眼前,祝你好运。
