Secrets of Success at an Interview

The subject of today's talk is interviews.

The key words here are preparation and confidence, which will carry you far.

Do your homework first.

Find out all you can about the job you are applying for and the organization you hope to work for.

Many of the employers I interviewed made the same criticism of candidates. "They have no idea what the day to day work of the job brings about. They have vague notions of 'furthering the company's prospects' or of 'serving the community', but have never taken the trouble to find out the actual tasks they will be required to do."

Do not let this be said of you. It shows an unattractive indifference to your employer and to your job.

Take the time to put yourself into the interviewer's place. He wants somebody who is hard-working with a pleasant personality and a real interest in the job.

Anything that you find out about the prospective employer can be used to your advantage during the interview to show that you have bothered to master some facts about the people who you hope to work for.

Write down (and remember) the questions you want to ask the interviewer(s) so that you are not speechless when they invite your questions. Make sure that holidays and pay are not the first things you ask about. If all your questions have been answered during the interview, replay: "I did have several questions, but you have already

answered them all."

Do not be afraid to ask for clarification of something that has been said during the interview if you want to be sure what was implied, but do be polite.

Just before you go to the interview, look again at the original advertisement that you answered, any correspondence from your prospective employer, photocopies of your letter of application or application form and your resume.

Then you will remember what you said and what they want. This is very important if you have applied for many jobs in a short time as it is easy to become confused and give an impression of inefficiency.

Make sure you know where and when you have to report for the interview. Go to the building (but not inside the office) a day or two before, if necessary, to find out how long the journey takes and where exactly the place is.

Aim to arrive five or ten minutes early for the actual interview, then you will have a little time in hand and you will not panic if you are delayed. You start at a disadvantage if you arrive worried and ten minutes late.

Dress in clean, neat, conservative clothes. Now is NOT the time to experiment with the punk look or (girls) to wear low-cut dresses with miniskirts. Make sure that your shoes, hands and hair (and teeth) are clean and neat.

Have the letter inviting you for an interview ready to show in case there is any difficulty in communication.

You may find yourself facing one interviewer or a panel. The latter is far more intimidating, but do not let it worry you too much.

The interviewer will probably have a table in front of him/her. Do not put your things or arms on it.

If you have a bag or a case, put it on the floor beside your chair. Do not clutch it nervously or, worse still, drop it, spilling everything.

Shake hands if the interviewer offers his hand first. There is little likelihood that a panel of five wants to go though the process of all shaking hands with you in turn. So you do not be upset if no one offers.

Shake hands firmly - a weak hand suggests a weak personality, and a crushing grip is obviously painful. Do not drop the hand as soon as yours has touched it as this will seem to show you do not like the other person.

Speak politely and naturally even if you are feeling shy. Think before you answer any questions.

If you cannot understand, ask: "Would you mind rephrasing the question, please?" The question will then be repeated in different words.

If you are not definitely accepted or turned down on the spot, ask: "When may I expect to hear the results of this interview?"

If you do receive a letter offering you the job, you must reply by letter (keep a photocopy) as soon as possible.

Good luck!

面試成功的決竅

我們今天的話(huà)題是面試。

這里送你一句話(huà)：有備而往，信心當(dāng)強(qiáng)。相信這句話(huà)會(huì)讓你受益匪淺。

首先要做好面試之外的工作。

盡可能地了解你所申請(qǐng)的工作和希望為之工作的機(jī)構(gòu)的情況。

我所采訪(fǎng)的許多雇主對(duì)應(yīng)聘人做了相同的批評(píng)："他們對(duì)這項(xiàng)工作的日常事務(wù)會(huì)帶來(lái)什么一無(wú)所知。他們對(duì)'拓展公司的前景'、'進(jìn)行社會(huì)服務(wù)'只有模模糊 糊的認(rèn)識(shí)，但從不下工夫?qū)λ麄円龅膶?shí)際工作作深入的了解。"

不要讓人這樣評(píng)價(jià)自己;那樣的話(huà)，說(shuō)明你對(duì)雇主和工作太不在乎，這可不是個(gè)好印象。

不妨設(shè)身處地替雇主和工作太不在乎，他要的是勤奮的、性格讓人喜歡的雇員，而且對(duì)所做的工作真正感興趣。

對(duì)未來(lái)的老板所做的任何了解都可以用于面試上，這對(duì)你有利。表明你對(duì)希望為之效力的雇主的情況曾下過(guò)一番功夫了解。

把要詢(xún)問(wèn)考官的問(wèn)題寫(xiě)下來(lái)或記住，這樣當(dāng)他要你提問(wèn)時(shí)不至于無(wú)話(huà)可說(shuō)。不要上去就問(wèn)假期如何，工資如何。如果你準(zhǔn)備的所有問(wèn)題在面試過(guò)程中都已 得到了回答，你可以說(shuō)："我剛才確實(shí)有一些什么問(wèn)題要問(wèn)，但您現(xiàn)在已全部解 答過(guò)了。"

如果面試中你想弄明白對(duì)方所說(shuō)的某些話(huà)有什么隱含意思，就要請(qǐng)對(duì)方說(shuō)明，不必畏縮，但一定要有禮貌。

去面試前，你應(yīng)把征聘的廣告的原件、未來(lái)雇主給你的復(fù)信、求職書(shū)或申請(qǐng)表及個(gè)人簡(jiǎn)歷的復(fù)印件再看一遍。

然后記住你講過(guò)的話(huà)和對(duì)方要求什么條件。如果你在短時(shí)間內(nèi)應(yīng)聘好幾個(gè)工作，這樣做就很重要，因?yàn)閼?yīng)聘一多就容易搞混，這就給人家留下了工作能力低的印象。

一定要弄清楚何時(shí)何地前去面試。如有必要，可以面試前一兩天去看看辦公樓，看看要走多遠(yuǎn)的路程，詳細(xì)地址在哪兒。

真正面試時(shí)，最好提前五至十分鐘趕到;這樣中間你就有點(diǎn)時(shí)間，萬(wàn)一有所耽擱，也不至恐慌，如果慌里慌張地趕去面試，或者遲到了十分鐘，那么一開(kāi)始你就處于不利的境地。著裝要整潔、傳統(tǒng)一些;面試可不是嘗試朋克式打扮的時(shí)候，也不是上穿袒胸上衣，下身穿超短裙的時(shí)候，另外鞋子和頭發(fā)一定要干干凈凈。

帶上約你去面試的信，以備雙方交流方面有問(wèn)題時(shí)用。

面試時(shí)面前可能是一個(gè)雇主或是一個(gè)面試小組。幾個(gè)人一同來(lái)考你的確比單獨(dú)的一個(gè)人考試你叫人害怕，但也不過(guò)分擔(dān)心。

主考官可能在他的對(duì)面放一張桌子，但你可不要把東西或手臂放上去。

如果你帶有手提包或手提箱，就把它放到桌椅旁的地上，不要緊張得抓著不放，更糟糕的是把包或箱子摔在地上，讓東西撒了一地。

對(duì)方先伸出手可以和他握手。如果有五個(gè)考官一起面試你，一般不會(huì)逐個(gè)跟你握手，所以沒(méi)人與你握手也不必感到不安。

握手時(shí)要有力――沒(méi)有力量的手讓人感覺(jué)沒(méi)有個(gè)性，但用力太猛讓人感到疼痛;也不要一觸到對(duì)方的手就馬下放下，那樣的話(huà)似乎讓人感到你對(duì)對(duì)方?jīng)]有好感。

就是自己感到不好意思，說(shuō)話(huà)也要禮貌、自然。對(duì)任何問(wèn)題都要先想后答。

如果你聽(tīng)不懂對(duì)方的提問(wèn)，就說(shuō)："對(duì)不起，您剛才的問(wèn)題能再說(shuō)一遍嗎? "一般對(duì)方會(huì)換一套說(shuō)法把問(wèn)題重復(fù)一遍。

如果對(duì)方當(dāng)時(shí)既沒(méi)有明確接受你，也沒(méi)有回絕你，你可以問(wèn)："請(qǐng)問(wèn)我什么 時(shí)候能知道面試的結(jié)果?"

如果你真的收到一封信，讓你去工作，你應(yīng)該趕快寫(xiě)封回信。

祝你好運(yùn)!
