Congratulations! You have finally landed a job interview with one of the top companies on your target list.That's exciting, now don't screw it up.
恭喜你!你終于能夠得到一家理想的公司的面試機(jī)會(huì)了,實(shí)在是太激動(dòng)了,但不要?dú)Я诉@次機(jī)會(huì)!

Don't ever fool yourself into thinking that interview mistakes are just for the inexperienced, early-in-career job candidates.
別天真地認(rèn)為只有職場(chǎng)菜鳥才會(huì)在面試中犯錯(cuò)。

We know that first impressions count, so how about making your first impression stand out on your next job interview?
我們都知道留下第一印象很重要,那么怎樣才能給自己的留下深刻第一印象,脫穎而出呢?

1) Giving long-winded, rambling answers?
1)回答啰嗦乏味。

This is one area I warn my clients about over and over again. Listen carefully to the question, focus on about 3 key points in your answer and then stop talking. Avoid getting nervous just because there is silence or little response from the interviewer(s).
這也是筆者一次又一次提醒面試者的要點(diǎn)。認(rèn)真聽取問題,把回答的要點(diǎn)凝練成3點(diǎn)就足夠了。不要因?yàn)槊嬖嚬俚某聊蜒远@慌。

2) Criticizing your current or former employer
2)批判現(xiàn)任或前任老板。

Regardless of how negative or disappointing your career experience is or has been with an employer, be diligent about giving the interviewer highlights of your work, career achievements and contributions.
無論你對(duì)目前或之前的工作或老板有多么失望,在面試中你應(yīng)當(dāng)認(rèn)真地向你的老板說明你在工作中的亮點(diǎn)、職業(yè)成就和所作的貢獻(xiàn)。

3) Providing generic responses without real substance
3)泛泛而談,毫無實(shí)例。

Saying to an interviewer,?"I am a great leader who gets the job done"?or?"I am known for being a good team player"?is like saying nothing at all. Practice giving answers that give specific examples or point to supporting evidence about your strengths and areas of expertise; incorporating the?C-A-R strategy?can make a huge difference.
跟面試官說,“我是一名能夠順利完成任務(wù)的好領(lǐng)導(dǎo)?!被颉拔乙?yàn)榱己玫膱F(tuán)隊(duì)合作精神而受歡迎。”其實(shí)說了等于沒說。鍛煉自己回答的能力,在回答時(shí)提出具體的例子或證據(jù),證明你的長處或?qū)I(yè)技能,結(jié)合C-A-R策略,你會(huì)與眾不同。

4) Knowing very little about a prospective employer
4) 對(duì)潛在雇主了解甚少。

We have so much access to information today, so you have no excuse for being unprepared in an interview. Check out the company's website and annual reports, search for recent press releases and use Google alerts to learn about any recent company changes. Leverage your LinkedIn contacts to learn any insider tips that may prove valuable in the interview.
如今我們接觸信息的渠道多不勝數(shù),所以我們就沒有理由說自己沒有準(zhǔn)備好面試。查看公司的網(wǎng)站和年度報(bào)告,在搜索最新的出版物,以及在Google上關(guān)注了解最新的公司動(dòng)態(tài)。利用領(lǐng)英聯(lián)系人去了解更多內(nèi)部資料,也許對(duì)你的面試很有幫助。

5) Failing to ask quality questions during the interview
5)面試中不會(huì)問有實(shí)質(zhì)性的問題。

Too many job-seekers focus on impressing the interviewer, but overlook the fact that the prospective employer should impress you as well. Think carefully about what you need to know before making a final decision if an offer is extended to you.
太多的面試者忙于給面試官留下印象,卻忘了你也應(yīng)該讓潛在雇主也給你留下印象。若你收到了錄用通知,那么在做最后決定的時(shí)候,要認(rèn)真想想你應(yīng)該知道的東西有哪些。

They are interviewing you and you are interviewing them. Here are a few easy questions to start with and feel free to come up with a few of your own:
他們?cè)诿嬖嚹愕耐瑫r(shí)你也在面試他們。下面有一些很簡單的開場(chǎng)問題,你也可以隨心想到一些問題對(duì)面試官進(jìn)行提問:

-- Who will I be reporting to directly?
--我應(yīng)該向誰直接匯報(bào)?

-- Are there growth opportunities through this position?
-- 這個(gè)職位是否有發(fā)展前景?

-- How many people have held this position in the past year?
--去年有多少人在這個(gè)職位?

-- What are the business challenges that your company/division is currently facing?
--你們公司/部門正面臨什么樣的商業(yè)挑戰(zhàn)?

When I am conducting interview coaching with my clients, I often get the "canned", predictable interview answers. Nothing is wrong with following interviewing guidelines, but remember to bring YOU to the interview.
當(dāng)筆者給顧客進(jìn)行面試培訓(xùn)時(shí),我得到的都是“罐頭答案”——規(guī)規(guī)矩矩的答案。遵循面試準(zhǔn)則并沒有錯(cuò),但請(qǐng)記住要在面試中真正展現(xiàn)自己。

Respond to questions in your own voice, let your personality shine through, smile and be yourself.
回答問題的時(shí)候展現(xiàn)出你的真實(shí)想法,讓你的個(gè)性更張揚(yáng),微笑做自己。

7) Being unenthusiastic and lethargic?in the interview
7)對(duì)面試毫無激情,死氣沉沉。

Whether you have been interviewing for several months or this is the first fruit of your job search efforts, check your disappointment, disillusion and fear at the door and bring you best foot forward.
不管你已經(jīng)參加了好幾個(gè)月的面試,還是第一次接受面試,在進(jìn)入面試前要調(diào)整好失落、絕望和恐懼的心態(tài),以最佳姿態(tài)出現(xiàn)在面試官面前。

More likely than not, you will go on a series of interviews and go through a lot of "no's" before you get a job offer. However, be energetic, excited, enthusiastic and optimistic as much as you can each and every time.
在得到工作機(jī)會(huì)前,你很可能會(huì)經(jīng)歷很多面試,遭受各種拒絕。無論如何,每次參加面試都應(yīng)保持精力充沛,活力四射,激情洋溢以及樂觀積極的狀態(tài)。

I know that this is not an easy task, so what strategies do you use to stay motivated and positive during interview after interview?
筆者知道這并不是一件容易的事情,那么你會(huì)采取什么方法,讓自己在面試中和面試后保持動(dòng)力和積極向上呢?
