要想建立良好的第一印象，面試前周密的準(zhǔn)備自是必不可少，面試時的表情舉止也是至關(guān)重要的。下面我們就來看看面試的時候都應(yīng)該注意哪些細(xì)節(jié)問題。
一定要微笑，握手要有力，真誠地看著對方的眼睛。When you are called for your interview, greet your
interviewer with a smile and a firm handshake. Allow yourself to be directed to
his office and wait to be offered a seat. Keep your posture erect without being
stiff, and sit with your legs uncrossed. Be comfortable, but don't slump down in
your seat, don't accept refreshments, and do not touch anything on the
interviewer's desk.
時時留心。During the "small talk," look around the office. Are there trophies or
pictures that suggest your interviewer's interest in sports? Are there family
pictures and photo opts with prominent people? Be observant without being
obvious-you never know when something you observe may be able to be used
productively during the interview.
在面試中要保持積極主動。The "small talk" will be limited and your interviewer will begin.
You should know why you are there and what you have to offer. Your agenda is to
sell your strengths and get hired, so you must be alert to opportunities to get
your points made. You must concentrate on what your interviewer is saying and
the kinds of questions being asked. The interviewer is leading, but you can
control the direction of an interview by having a prepared agenda and
concentrating on opportunities to slide your selling points into the
conversation.
聽清楚問題再回答，回答問題的時候要準(zhǔn)確、恰到好處，不要回答地太長、太羅嗦。 If you're asked if it's raining, don't
describe the dark clouds. Listen to the question and address the question.
Interviewers don't like to hear evasive answers (含糊其詞的答案). If you don't know the
answer to a question, say so, and tell your interviewer you will get the
information for them in the next day or two.
準(zhǔn)備好你要問的問題。You will probably be asked if you have any questions. If you
prepared well, you should have some questions ready, like who your supervisor
would be if you're hired, where your work station would be, would there be
regular performance reviews, and what would be the next promotion level.
注意從每一次面試中吸取經(jīng)驗。Never leave an interview empty-handed. When your interview
ends, make sure you know your interviewer's name, title, and mailing address,
and ask what happens next. Will there be a second interview, and if so, who will
be conducting it and when will it take place? Do you have a hiring timetable?
Would it be all right to follow up in a few days? Is there any more information
that would help you make a favorable decision? If you want this job and feel you
are a good match, say so. Let your interviewer know you're ready to accept and
exactly when you would be available to report to work. Be assertive without
being obnoxious. Close your sale.
面試后要記得給你的面試官寫封感謝信。Mail or hand deliver your thank-you note within 24-hours of
your interview-this is a must! A hand-written thank-you note on plain paper is
fine. Make it brief and courteous. Thank your interviewer for the time and
interest, and if you want the job, say so again. Then make plans to follow up on
your interview, and continue your job search activity. Your sale is never
completed until a start date has been offered.
