An Interview Strategy: Telling Stories
面试策略之一:讲故事
A Job Interview Is Not an Interrogation
工作面试并非是审问
If you read many books on job interviews, you'll notice that some feed you lists of interview questions that you should learn answers to. But an interview is not an interrogation; it's a conversation. Thus, I believe the best way to prepare for an interview is to come armed with a multitude of small stories about both your business and personal life.
如果你读了很多关于求职面试的书,你可能会注意到有很多书都列举出一大堆的问题,需要你学习答案。但是面试并非是审问,而是一次交谈。所以,我相信,迎战面试的最佳方法是准备一系列的和你私生活、工作生活有关的小故事。
Conversation Wins the Job
交谈助你赢得工作
Competency-based interviews, as opposed to traditional interviews, have become more common 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 corporate 1 culture. These are called "behavioral competencies."
相对于传统面试的能力面试在如今越来越普遍。在传统面试中,面试官会将重点考察你是否具有该份工作所要求的技能和知识。而能力面试除此之外还会考察得更深,面试官会询问你的性格、个人能力等,以便更好地判断你是否能够融入他们的公司文化。这些称为“行为能力”。
A competency-based interviewer will spend about half the interview on your job skills, and about half on your behavioralcompetencies. He or she will be looking for evidence of how you have acted in real situations in the past. So having your stories ready to go, and discussing them during a conversation between two equals, plays very well for this type of interview.
一次能力面试会花一半的时间在你的工作技能的考察上,而另一半的时间则用来考察你的行为能力。面试官会要求你提供证据证明在过去的具体情况中的一些表现。所以提前准备好你的故事,然后在面试的中间段(工作技能考察和行为能力考察的中间)和他们谈论,这样你就能够在一次行为面试中表现优良了。
The Interviewer's Priorities
面试官的特权
An employer wants to find out:
雇主想要知道的是:
1) Are you an asset orliability? In other words, will you either make money or save money for the company?
你是有价值员工还是一个负担?也就是说你是否能够既为公司赚钱又为公司省钱?
2) Are you a team player? Will you fit into the corporate hierarchy 2 or be like sand in the gears? Can you take and give (if appropriate) orders?
你是否能和团队中的其他人相处良好?你是否能顺利融入公司的各个阶层还是会像害群之马一样?你是否能够服从命令或在恰当的时机发号施令?
adj.共同的,全体的;公司的,企业的
- This is our corporate responsibility.这是我们共同的责任。
- His corporate's life will be as short as a rabbit's tail.他的公司的寿命是兔子尾巴长不了。
