第二部分(8~14问)
问:在你的上一份工作里,现实与你的期望有何差距?答:最难预见的事就
是,公司的其他部门如何看待我在市场研究部门的工作。遗憾的是,我发现许多机
构宁愿向外面寻求专业的研究服务,这就是我决定与你们公司联系的缘故。
面试官试图断定,求职者在过去的工作中是否能客观考虑他对工作的适应能力。
如果在很大程度上,你对这些事情都能作出好的判断,那么你很可能为了这份工作
已细心地审查了你自己。面试官还想确定含混不清的事情不会在这份工作中重现。
Q:How did the realities differ from your expectations in your last job?
A:The hardest thing to foresee was how other departments within the
company would view my marketresearch department s work.Unfortunately,I
found that many groups prefer to go outside for specialized research services,and
that's really the reason I decided to contact your firm.
问:你怎样充实你目前从事的(或最近的)工作?
答:假如我决定呆在我目前的工作岗位上,我会自愿地负责通讯方面工作,设
法使我们所有的办公室和互联网相连或联系上别的信息资源。
不要过细描述消极的事,描述你如何提高工作质量,使你的技能增加,从而敬
岗乐业。别让面试官有这种印象,那就是假如你有什么不满意,你就不再对一项解
决方案或一个计划的改进起作用。结束面谈时应侧重讲下一份工作中你要追求的,
你的回答应和该职位所提出的要求紧密联系。
Q:How would you enrich your current (or most recent)job?
A:If I decide to stay with my current job,I m going to volunteer to
be on the communications task force,which is trying to get all of our offices
linked to the Internet and other resources
问:做这份工作,你能随时出差吗?
答:如果受到充分的重视,我可以在任何需要的时候出差。就目前而言,我通
常是每月出差一次。
你的回答要和你正在申请的职位的要求一致,要反映出你对该工作和时间要求
的真正理解。假如你对此不明确,可询问工作的规律性,并表示愿意定期地延长工
作的时间。
Q:Would you be able to travel as necessary to perform the job?
A:If I have adequate notice,I can arrange to be available for travel
at almost any time of the year.As it is,I usually travel about once a month
for my current job.
问:为什么对于一个有着你这样条件的人来说,这是一份特别好的工作?
答:您刚才告诉我本职位的前一位职员做得非常出色,我自信在电子制表和数
据统计上我有同样的技能。同样我会和你的审计组配合得很好,因为我来自那种环
境,并且知道客户做什么使协商关系更富有成效。
在这里,最好的回答是用对比方式,描述一下你最近的工作里的经历和成果。
Q:Why is this a particularly good job for someone with your qualifications?
A:Based on what you ve told me about the last person who excelled
in this job,I'm confident that Ive the same skills in spreadsheet analysis
and statistics.I'd also work well with your audit team,because I come from
that kind of environment and know what a client can do to make the consulting
relationship more productive.
问:什么是你最有效率或最理想的工作环境?
答:我喜欢每天清晨至少用一个小时准备一天的工作,这段时间内不受任何干
扰,我通常在早上7 点左右开始工作。此外,我喜欢有开放式的办公室,喜欢常有
信息反馈,喜欢做什么事情都充满活力。同样,别人忙忙碌碌地工作,也有助于我
更高效率地工作。
面试官想知道求职者的工作环境对他的工作带来的影响。你对这个职位、部门
的硬件设施,以及特定工作队伍的态度适应得如何?强调你在各种环境下的工作能
力,以及你在不怎么理想的工作环境中如何通过努力提高了效率。
Q:Whats your most productive or ideal work setting?
A:I like having at least one hour of uninterrupted time in the early
morning to plan my day.I usually start around 7 A.M.Otherwise,I enjoy an
office with open doors,constant feedback,and lots of energy and activity.It
helps me work more productively when I sense how busy everyone else is,too.
问:日常工作中,你喜欢固定的工作模式还是多变的工作模式?
答:我喜欢工作多变且富有挑战性,这就是我经常请求从事艰巨任务的原因。
我们前两次商讨的那两个方案就是我自行要求的,我不会让自己空虚无聊的。
你的回答要与工作的要求相符。描述既能保持你的兴致,从而学到新东西,又
不会让你厌烦的环境。
Q:Do you prefer continuity in structure or frequent change in your daily
work?
A:I enjoy change and challenge,which is why I frequently ask for the
tough assignments.The last two projects we discussed were ones that I asked
for.I don't allow myself to get bored.
问:有效的时间管理已成为提高生产力的一个必不可少的因素。举例子说明你
学会并应用到工作上的时间管理技术。
答:我会定期使用日程安排软件,它能有效地帮我安排好每日、每周、每月或
者每年的工作。它还有计划表的特点和提示选择功能,有助于在限定的时间内及时
完成任务。一般来说,我总是朝着目标奋斗而且非常自觉。我喜欢每次用一定的时
间和精力制定一份计划方案。我已发现这种方法有助于节省时间,这样使我能够实
施我的新方案,并最终为部门节省了时间和金钱。
回答这个问题时,谈谈你在工作中应用过的能节省时间和资源的分配时间的技
巧。在这种公关领域里,时间是很珍贵的,面试官想看看你是不是一个珍惜时间的
人。试举一个例子说明你是如何因为合理安排时间而提高生产力的。
Q:Time management has become a necessary factor in productivity. Give
an example of a timemanagement skill youve learned and applied at work.A:I
regularly use scheduling software, which helps me effectively plan for the
day, week, month, or year.
It also has a todolist feature and an alarm option,which is helpful
for meeting timely deadlines. In general, though, I'm very goal oriented
and selfdisciplined.I like to focus clearly on one project at a time for
a set amount of hours. In
the past Ive found that this has helped me save time, which in turn
has given me the opportunity to implement new rocedures that have ultimately
saved the department time and money.
