關(guān)于面試,我們需要注意什么呢?接下來,小編給大家準(zhǔn)備了關(guān)于面試須知的事情,歡迎大家參考與借鑒。
關(guān)于面試須知的事情
Many years ago when I hated what I was doing for a living, I was encouraged by my career coach to write down several short stories about times and events in my life where I influenced the outcome1. I was stumped2 at first, but after a few days, I came up with more than 15 pages of stories of times in my life where I influenced the outcome and either grew myself and/or bettered the existence of either myself or others around me. 許多年前,我厭倦了自己賴以謀生的工作。我的職業(yè)教練鼓勵我寫下過去我影響了事件結(jié)果的幾件事。開始這讓我有些犯難,但幾天后,我寫了超過15頁紙。這些是我影響了結(jié)果的事情;讓我獲得成長并且/或者給我或我周圍的人帶來了更好的生存。
So what does this have to do with a job interview? 這和面試有什么關(guān)系?
If you read other books on job interviews, you'll notice they feed you lists of interview questions and answers to memorize. An interview is not an interrogation, however it's a conversation. To make it that way you need to come armed with a multitude3 of small stories about both your business and personal lives. 如果你去讀一讀其它有關(guān)工作面試的書,你就會注意到里面都是面試題目、還有要背誦的答案。面試不是審問。它是一次對話。要讓它成為一次對話,你需要用那些“自己事業(yè)和個人生活”的小故事來“武裝”自己。
When you go into an interview, you need to leave your nerves at the door. The best way to prepare is to be yourself. The best way to be yourself is to tell your own story (or stories). 在參加面試的時候,你需要把緊張留在門外。最好的準(zhǔn)備就是做本色的自我。做自我最好的辦法就是說自己的故事(一個或多個)。
This is especially great for the competency-based interview being used more today. In a traditional interview, the interviewer will ask you questions focused on whether you have the skills and knowledge needed to do the job. A competency-based interview goes further by asking you additional questions about your character and personal attributes that can better determine whether you fit their corporate4 culture. These are called "behavioral competencies." 對于如今基于能力的面試來說,這尤為重要。在傳統(tǒng)面試中,面試官問你的問題集中在你是否具備工作中需要的能力或知識。能力面試會進(jìn)一步問你有關(guān)性格、品質(zhì)等能更準(zhǔn)確地判斷是否你適應(yīng)企業(yè)文化的問題。這些被稱之為“行為能力”。
A competency-based interviewer will spend about half the interview on your job skills, and about half on your behavioral competencies. He or she will be looking for evidence of how you have acted in real situations in the past. 能力測試面試官會花一半時間面試你的工作技能;另一半時間面試你的行為能力。他或她會去尋找過去你在現(xiàn)實情景中是如何表現(xiàn)的。
An employer wants to find out 雇主想知道:
Are you an asset or liability? In other words, will you make money or save money for the company? 你是一項資產(chǎn)還是債務(wù)?換句話說,你會替公司賺錢還是省錢?
Are you a team player? Will you fit into the corporate1 hierarchy2 or be like sand in the gears? Can you take and give (if appropriate) orders? 你是否有團(tuán)隊精神?你能適應(yīng)企業(yè)上下級關(guān)系嗎?還是會格格不入?你能接受及下達(dá)命令嗎(如果必須的話)?
Will you fit into the company culture? They don't want prima donnas. 你能融入企業(yè)文化嗎?公司不想要自我本位的人。
The best way to show these traits is to take the initiative and have several personal stories that you can tell, taking maybe 30 to 90 seconds each. 展現(xiàn)這些特質(zhì)的最好方法就是采取主動;準(zhǔn)備幾個合適的故事;每個故事講述時間在30-90秒。
You may want to start by developing your stories around these seven areas 你也許希望從以下方面來構(gòu)建你的故事:
1. Times where you either made money or saved money for your current or previous company.
你給當(dāng)前或過去公司省錢/賺錢的經(jīng)歷。
2. A crisis in your life or job and how you responded or recovered from it.
你對生活或工作中曾出現(xiàn)的危機(jī)如何應(yīng)對。
3. A time where you functioned as part of a team and what your contribution was.
你在團(tuán)隊中的工作以及貢獻(xiàn)。
4. A time in your career or job where you had to overcome stress.
你在過去工作中克服壓力的經(jīng)歷。
5. A time in your job where you provided successful leadership or a sense of direction.
你在工作中成功發(fā)揮領(lǐng)導(dǎo)才能的經(jīng)歷。
6. A failure that occurred in your job and how you overcame it.
你在工作上經(jīng)歷過的失敗以及從失敗中崛起的經(jīng)歷。
7. Any seminal3 events that happened during your career to cause you to change direction and how that worked out for you.
職業(yè)生涯中任何讓你改變方向的重大事件;以及這些事件是如何影響你的。
I want to emphasize that an interview should not be an interrogation. It should be a conversation between two equals. When you accomplish this you come away a step closer to your goal of landing the job you really want, because... 我想強(qiáng)調(diào)的是面試不應(yīng)該是審問,應(yīng)該是基于平等的一次談話。做到這點后,你就會離你心儀工作又近一步,因為……
It's the conversation that wins an interview, and it's the conversation that wins the job. 為你贏得面試機(jī)會的是對話;為你贏得工作的也是對話。
To have a conversation, have your stories ready. 要進(jìn)行對話;請準(zhǔn)備好你的故事。
