向英語面試官提問的問題
Faced with one pointed question after the next regarding your career, a job interview can quickly take on the feel of an interrogation.
面對著接二連三有關(guān)于你個人職業(yè)生涯的問題，你會很快就覺得一場面試就像是一場審訊會。
But employers aren't the only ones who get to poke and pry during the sit-down. By asking thought-provoking questions, you can not only collect valuable information but also distinguish yourself from the pack.
但是在這個座談當(dāng)中，能問東問西的并非只能是雇主方。通過問一些引發(fā)思考的問題，你不僅可以收集有價值的信息，還能讓你脫穎而出。
"It means that you're thoughtful about the process and that you're very interested in the position because you took the time to think of questions that would be substantive," says Cheryl Palmer, a career coach and founder of the career coaching firm Call to Career.
“意思是你對整一個過程很有自己的想法，對職位本身很感興趣。因為你花了時間去想一下實質(zhì)的問題�！� 職業(yè)導(dǎo)師Cheryl Palmer如是說。她同時也是Call to Career職業(yè)指導(dǎo)公司的創(chuàng)辦人。
Here are some questions you can ask and tips for interpreting the responses from your interviewer.
以下給大家提供了一些面試過程中可以問的問題，以及對面試官反饋的解讀。
1. How has this position evolved since it was created?
1. 從設(shè)立這個職位以來，這個職位發(fā)成了怎樣的變化?
Getting a brief history on the role should clear up whether the position has expanded over the years or has been a dead end for employees, Palmer says.
Palmer表示，對這個職位的歷史有一個簡單的了解會讓你知道該職位已經(jīng)存在多年還是一個員工的死胡同。
Interpreting the response: If the interviewer says the position has expanded beyond its original scope (and is continuing to do so), that signifies an opportunity for growth within the company. If the position has stayed static for years, don't expect to blossom there. Depending on your career ambitions, the latter response isn't necessarily bad, Palmer says.
解讀面試官的反饋：如果面試官表示這個職位的職能已經(jīng)超出最原始的范圍(并且還在不停擴(kuò)大)，那么這個職位在這家公司就會有非常好的發(fā)展機(jī)會。如果好幾年這個職位停滯不前，那就別指望它能開花結(jié)果了。當(dāng)然Palmer也表示，根據(jù)自己的職業(yè)期望，后一種情況也并非一定是壞事。
2. What have past employees done to succeed in this position?
2. 過去的員工是如何采取行動在這個職位當(dāng)中取得成功的?
Knowing how the organization measures achievements will help you understand what the expectations will be and whether you have the skill set to meet them, Palmer says. But don't undermine your past accomplishments just because your route to success doesn't match up with the one embraced by the company. "You also don't want to be too narrowly defined by what other people have done. Because you're a different person, you may approach things a little differently," she says.
Palmer說，知道這家機(jī)構(gòu)如何去衡量成功會幫助你了解公司對你的期望，以及你是否具備必要的技能去滿足公司的需求。但是，也不要因為之前取得成功的路徑不被現(xiàn)在的雇主看好而否認(rèn)之前的成績。她說道，“你也不想很狹隘地根據(jù)別人做過的事被評判。因為你是另外一個人，你處理事情也就會和他人有所不同�！�
Interpreting the response: You may hear a description that highlights the positive and negative attributes of your predecessor. That could be a good indicator of the company's culture. "Typically, what one person has done to be successful is what the organization tends to do to be successful," Palmer says.
解讀面試官的反饋：你聽到的回答可能會強調(diào)對于該職位上一個員工正面或者負(fù)面的描述。這可能是企業(yè)文化很好的一個風(fēng)向標(biāo)。Palmer說：“個人在哪方面取得成功，那么一家公司往往也在這方面取得成功�！�
3. What have you enjoyed most about working here?
3. 在這里工作最開心的是什么?
Your prospective boss can relay what he or she values most and what led to his or her personal success with the organization. Then, Palmer says, you can internally ruminate about whether you share the same values and can envision yourself working there.
你將來的上司會向你傳達(dá)他最看重的方面，以及在這家公司當(dāng)中是什么促成了他的個人成功。Palmer說，“以此，你可以從內(nèi)部思考你是否有相同的價值觀，并且想象你如何在這個工作。”
Interpreting the response: Your interviewer may commend the company for everything from benefits to year-end bonuses. On the other hand, "if they're struggling to come up with something positive about why they like working there, chances are good that you're not going to be able to come up with anything positive after having worked there either," Palmer says.
解讀面試官的反應(yīng)：你的面試官可能會從各種福利聊到年終獎。從另外一個方面講，”如果他們挖空心思和你講在這里工作好的方面，那么到時候你在這個地方工作了一段時間之后也會想不出這個地方有什么好來�！盤almer說道。
4. What is the top priority for the person in this position over the next three months?
4. 在未來三個月，對這個崗位上的員工來說，什么事最重要的?
This question is helpful so you know what to focus on if you do get the position, Palmer says. Without a clear expectation, she adds, you won't know what to accomplish or how to make the right impression during your first days on the job.
Palmer說：“問這個問題很有用，可以讓你知道要是真正開始工作之后，你需要去關(guān)注什么�！彼a充說道，“沒有一個明確的期望，你就無法知道要完成什么工作，以及如何在工作的頭幾天留下一個恰當(dāng)合適的印象。”
Interpreting the response: You may be told that you need to complete 15 tasks rather than two or three. "If these are all big initiatives that they want you to handle, probably not that doable," Palmer says.
面試官反應(yīng)的解讀：你有可能聽到你要完成不止兩個三個的任務(wù)，而是15個。Palmer 說，”如果這些任務(wù)都是些大條目，那么他們也許并非那么可行�！�
面試官提問的五個英語問題
一、Tell me about yourself。
這是面試問題中的經(jīng)典頭道“開胃菜”，主要考察求職者的個性是否符合公司的企業(yè)文化，所以回答時要盡量貼近這個公司的情況來推銷自己。
二、What are your three greatest strengths?
“I’m really organized, punctual and get along well with others”這樣簡單的回答一定要慎重，回答這個問題的關(guān)鍵是簡潔、精煉的找到這個公司所看重的特長。像要應(yīng)聘金融行業(yè)，可以說：“I think my three strongest strengths are details-oriental, patient and cautious�！钡绻麘�(yīng)聘者是一個銷售精英，可以說：“I think my strongest strengths are aggressive, hard working and communicative”。一定要考慮到應(yīng)聘公司及職務(wù)的需要來選擇表現(xiàn)自己的優(yōu)勢。
三、Why are you interested in working for our company?
強烈建議不要以“It seemed like a good career move�！被蚴恰癐 havent been able to find anything else interesting�！睘殚_始。此問題主要考察應(yīng)聘者是否了解這個工作、是否真正有興趣。你一定要讓面試官知道你很清楚公司的運營模式，并且對這項工作非常積極。最好能有一些實際回答的話，加分會更多。 “I read an article in the newspa-pe-r and was very impressed by ……”但前提你必須真的對這家公司作了研究，同時也要注意，不要讓面試官覺得你是為了討好面試官而言過其。
四、Why did you leave your last job?
面試不是抱怨的場合，千萬不要對現(xiàn)有或是過去的雇主或同事進(jìn)行這樣的評論：“I didnt agree with the companys direction。”“I got no recognition for my work�！薄癕y boss was totally unreasonable�！苯ㄗh要從自身發(fā)展的角度出發(fā)來回答：“I love my last job and really learned a lot from it, but I need a new platform and bigger space to make my career successful。”總之，要讓面試官知道，以前的公司在你的眼中并非一錢不值，你是懷著感激來評價他們的。
五、If we hire you，how long will you stay with us?
你可以回答：“As long as my position here allows me to learn and to advance at a pace with my abilities. ”這樣就告訴老板，你是希望同公司一起成長，不會像離開上一份工作那樣很快也離開這家公司！
