我們通過對大量面試資料的分析,發(fā)現(xiàn)一些典型的問題在各種面試中反復出現(xiàn),恰恰是這些看似平常的問題使許多應聘者失去了得到理想工作的機會。所以在面試篇中,我們將逐個對這些常見的面試問題進行講解,并提供得體應答例句。相信面試篇能助您充滿信心地在面試中侃侃而談,在最激烈的競爭中脫穎而出。
1、Q:What are your key skills?
A:After working six years as a senior systems analyst,I've developed a number of key skills,including business modeling,process reengineering,software package evaluation,and excellent programming skills in UNIX and Cenvironments.I was very pleased to discover that these are the skills you're seeking.Do you want to hear about specific examples of my work?
問:你的關(guān)鍵技能是什么?
答:作為高級系統(tǒng)分析人員工作6年以后,我拓展了大量的關(guān)鍵技能,包括商務模型、過程重建、軟件包評價和在UNIX和C語言環(huán)境下的優(yōu)秀編程技能。我非常高興這些技能都是你們需要的,你想聽一下我具體的工作例子嗎?
談及你的工作技能以及你如何把它們運用于這份工作上。避免陳詞濫調(diào)或過分籠統(tǒng),應提供具體的例子,拿你當前在任的工作或以前的工作與正在面試的這份工作作比較。
2、Q:What are your strengths?
A:My strengths are interpersonal skills,and I can usually win people over to my point of view.Also,I have good judgment about people and an intuitive sense of their talents and their ability to contribute to a given problem.These skills seem to me directly related to the job.I notice that you require three years work experience for this job.Although my resume shows that I?ve only two years experience,it doesn't show that I took two evening college courses related to my field and have been active in one of the professional societies. I also try to gain knowledge by reading the industry's trade journals. I'm certain that my combined knowledge and skill level is the equivalent of that of other people who actually do have three years work experience.I'm also currently enrolled in a time management course;I can already see the effects of this course at work on my present job.
問:你的實力是什么?
答:我的實力是人際關(guān)系技巧,我通常都能使別人支持我的觀點。對人我有著較好的判斷力且對他們的才華和解決問題的能力有較好的直覺。這種技能在我看來和這份工作直接相關(guān)。我知道你要求有3年的相關(guān)工作經(jīng)驗。雖然我的簡歷表明我只有兩年的工作經(jīng)驗,但這并不代表我只上了兩年和本領(lǐng)域相關(guān)的夜大,并在某一專門團體里表現(xiàn)得比較積極。我還通過閱讀企業(yè)貿(mào)易新聞來獲取知識,我肯定我的綜合知識和技術(shù)水平與那些有3年實際水平的人相當。眼下我還正在學習時間管理課程,我已看到了這門課程在我目前從事的這份工作中起到的作用。
描述兩三項和該工作最相關(guān)的技能。避免老生常談或過分籠統(tǒng),應提供詳細的例子。描述能把這些技能運用于新職位的新方法。假如你不得不談你缺點的話,那就誠懇一點,但要避免露餡,避免指出那有可能成為你獲得這份工作的主要障礙的缺點。例如,指出你僅有他們要求的工作經(jīng)驗是明智的,面試官肯定很重視這些,你還可以解釋你是如何夠資格去做這份工作的。
3、Q:How is your experience relevant to this job?
A:In my current job I've recently completed three reengineering projects.I gathered all the necessary market data,developed a benchmarking program,and put together a team to do the evaluation and analysis.As a result I'm ready to tackle the major re?engineering project that you?ve listed as the priorty of this job during the first year.In my past job I was the liaison between the project engineering group and the instrumentation group in the testing of a new turbo engine.This experience will also help me tackle this job,which involves a close and careful working relationship between your technical group and your field testing group.
問:你的經(jīng)驗如何與這份工作有關(guān)呢?
答:在我目前從事的工作里,我最近完成了三項工程再設(shè)計項目。我收集了所有需要的市場數(shù)據(jù),發(fā)展了一項測量水準項目,組成一支隊伍去做評價和分析工作。因此,我已經(jīng)準備好了去解決你這項工作里列出的第一年首要的重新設(shè)計項目。在過去的工作里,我是工程設(shè)計隊和新滑輪引擎儀器檢測隊的聯(lián)系人。這些經(jīng)驗有助于我與你們的技術(shù)隊伍和檢測隊伍保持密切和謹慎的工作關(guān)系,以解決這項工作。
對比你當前從事的工作或以前的工作與這份工作的要求。相似點對于你來說是明顯的,但對于招聘者來說卻未必。如果需要的話可就這份工作提出問題,使面試官接受你的理論依據(jù)。
4、Q:What skills do you think are most critical to this job? A:The ability to evaluate all of the regulatory and competitive requirements for your new product are critical.I've had considerable experience in this area as a strategic?marketing and regulatory?policy analyst in my most recent job,and also in my first job.
問:對于這項工作你認為什么技能是最重要的?
答:評價你們所有新產(chǎn)品的規(guī)則和競爭要求的能力是重要的。在我最近的工作里,作為市場策劃者和政策調(diào)整分析員已獲得了大量的經(jīng)驗,我的第一份工作也是一樣。
描述你過去的工作經(jīng)驗與這份工作最相關(guān)的地方,對比你當前從事的工作或以前的工作與這份工作的要求。
5、Q:What skills would you like to develop in this job?
A:I'd like to develop my negotiating skills.I've had considerable experience interpreting and implementing large contracts,but I?ve been limited in negotiating the actual conditions,costs,and standards for a major contract.I believe this job will offer me the opportunity to be a member of a negotiating team and thereby to begin acquiring the skills necessary to lead the team.
問:你在這份工作里想提高什么技能?
答:我希望提高我的談判技巧。我在翻譯合同和實施合同上都有大量的經(jīng)驗,但對談判主要合同的實際條件、要價、標準等事項,我的經(jīng)驗有限。我相信這份工作能提供機會讓我成為談判隊伍里的一員,使我有機會獲得一些必要的技能來領(lǐng)導這個隊伍。
敘述你在目前就任的工作中還不能充分施展的幾項才能。例如:因為你的上司計劃在他的工作崗位上至少還要干5年,所以你負責管理整個部門的機會就可能受到妨礙。
