1、分享外企面试-基本涵盖了所有问题来源：朱晓方的日志1. So, tell me a little about yourself.You dont need to explain everything from birth to present day. Relevant facts about education, your career and your current life situation are fine.2. Why are you looking (or why did you leave you last job)?This should be a straightforw
2、ard question to answer, but it can trip you up. Presumably you are looking for a new job (or any job) because you want to advance your career and get a position that allows you to grow as a person and an employee. Its not a good idea to mention money here, it can make you sound mercenary. And if you
3、 are in the unfortunate situation of having been downsized, stay positive and be a*rief as pos*le about it. If you were fired, youll need a good explanation. But once again, stay positive.3. Tell me what you know about this company.Do your homework before you go to any interview. Whether it*eing the
4、 VP of marketing or the mailroom clerk, you should know about the company or business youre going to work for. Has this company been in the news lately? Who are the people in the company you should know about? Do the background work, it will make you stand out as someone who comes prepared, and is g
5、enuinely interested in the company and the job.4. Why do you want to work at X Company?This should be directly related to the last question. Any research youve done on the company should have led you to the conclusion that youd want to work there. After all, youre at the interview, right? Put some t
6、hought into this answer before you have your interview, mention your career goals and highlight forward-thinking goals and career plans.5. What relevant experience do you have?Hopefully if youre applying for this position you have bags of related experience, and if thats the case you should mention
7、it all. But if youre switching careers or trying something a little different, your experience may initially not look like its matching up. Thats when you need a little honest creativity to match the experiences required with the ones you have. People skills are people skills after all, you just nee
8、d to show how customer service skills can apply to internal management positions, and so on.6. If your previous co-workers were here, what would they say about you?Ok, this is not the time for full disclosure. If some people from your past are going to say youre a boring A-hole, you dont need to bri
9、ng that up. Stay positive, always, and maybe have a few specific quotes in mind. “Theyd say I was a hard worker” or even better “John Doe has always said I was the most reliable, creative problem-solver hed ever met.”7. Have you done anything to further your experience?This could include anything fr
10、om night classes to hobbies and sports. If its related, its worth mentioning. Obviously anything to do with further education is great, but maybe youre spending time on a home improvement project to work on skills such as self-sufficiency, time management and motivation.8. Where else have you applie
11、d?This is a good way to hint that youre in demand, without sounding like youre whoring yourself all over town. So, be honest and mention a few other companie*ut dont go into detail. The fact that youre seriously looking and keeping your options open is what the interviewer is driving at.9. How are y
12、ou when youre working under pressure?Once again, there are a few ways to answer thi*ut they should all be positive. You may work well under pressure, you may thrive under pressure, and you may actually PREFER working under pressure. If you say you crumble like aged blue cheese, this is not going to
13、help you get your foot in the door.10. What motivates you to do a good job?The answer to this one is not money, even if it is. You should be motivated by lifes noble pursuits. You want recognition for a job well done. You want to become better at your job. You want to help others or be a leader in y
14、our field.11. Whats your greatest strength?This is your chance to shine. Youre being asked to explain why you are a great employee, so dont hold back and stay do stay positive. You could be someone who thrives under pressure, a great motivator, an amazing problem solver or someone with extraordinary
15、 attention to detail. If your greatest strength, however, is to drink anyone under the table or get a top score on Mario Kart, keep it to yourself. The interviewer is looking for work-related strengths.12. Whats your biggest weakness?If youre completely honest, you may be kicking yourself in the but
16、t. If you say you dont have one, youre obviously lying. This is a horrible question and one that politicians have become masters at answering. They say things like “Im perhaps too committed to my work and dont spend enough time with my family.” Oh, theres a fireable offense. Ive even heard “I think
17、Im too good at my job, it can often make people jealous.” Please, lets keep our feet on the ground. If youre asked this question, give a small, work-related flaw that youre working hard to improve. Example: “Ive been told I occasionally focus on details and miss the bigger picture, so Ive been spend
18、ing time laying out the complete project every day to see my overall progress.”一三. Lets talk about salary. What are you looking for?Run for cover! This is one tricky game to play in an interview. Even if you know the salary range for the job, if you answer first youre already showing all your cards.
19、 You want as much as pos*le, the employer wants you for as little as youre willing to take. Before you apply, take a look at salaryx for a good idea of what someone with your specific experience should be paid. You may want to say, “well, thats something Ive thought long and hard about and I think s
20、omeone with my experience should get between X & Y.” Or, you could be sly and say, “right now, Im more interested in talking more about what the position can offer my career.” That could at least buy you a little time to scope out the situation. But if you do have a specific figure in mind and you a
21、re confident that you can get it, Id say go for it. I have on many occasions, and every time I got very close to that figure (both below and sometimes above).14. Are you good at working in a team?Unless you have the I.Q. of a houseplant, youll always answer YES to this one. Its the only answer. How
22、can anyone function inside an organization if they are a loner? You may want to mention what part you like to play in a team though; its a great chance to explain that youre a natural leader.一五. Tell me a suggestion you have made that was implemented.Its important here to focus on the word “implemen
23、ted.” Theres nothing wrong with having a thousand great ideas, but if the only place they live is on your notepad whats the point? Better still, you need a good ending. If your previous company took your advice and ended up going bankrupt, thats not such a great example either. Be prepared with a st
24、ory about an idea of yours that was taken from idea to implementation, and considered successful.16. Has anything ever irritated you about people youve worked with?Of course, you have a list as long as your arm. But you cant say that, it shows you a*eing negative and difficult to work with. The best
25、 way to answer this one is to think for a while and then say something like “Ive always got on just fine with my co-workers actually.”Use this question as a chance to show that you are a team player: “The only people I have trouble with are those who arent team players, who just dont perform, who co
26、mplain constantly, and who fail to respond to any efforts to motivate them.” The interviewer is expecting a response focused on personality and personal dislikes. Surprise her by delivering an answer that reflects company values17. Is there anyone you just could not work with?No. Well, unless youre
27、talking about murderers, racists, rapists, thieves or other dastardly characters, you can work with anyone. Otherwise you could be flagged as someone whos picky and difficult if you say, “I cant work with anyone whos a Broncos fan. Sorry.”一八. Tell me about any issues youve had with a previou*oss.Arr
28、gh! If you fall for this one you shouldnt be hired anyway. The interviewer is testing you to see if youll speak badly about your previous supervisor. Simply answer this question with exteme tact, diplomacy and if necessary, a big fat loss of memory. In short, youve never had any issues.The answer to
29、 一八 is completely wrong. I am a director at a major media companys interactive division. Our company is expanding and I am almost in a constant state of hiring. I ask a variation of this question in every single interview and if a candidate has never had one issue or disagreement with anyone, (I sta
30、ted a variation: I ask if it has happened with anyone in the workplace) I peg them as a liar and reject them immediately.I went well with my previou*oss. If there is an conflict, I will be open mind and talk about facts. once decision is made, I execute it well.19. Would you rather work for money or
31、 job satisfaction?Its not a very fair question is it? Wed all love to get paid a Trump-like salary doing a job we love but thats rare indeed. Its fine to say money is important, but remember that NOTHING is more important to you than the job. Otherwise, youre just someone looking for a bigger payche
32、ck.20. Would you rather be liked or feared?I have been asked this a lot, in various incarnations. The first time I just drew a blank and said, “I dont know.” That went over badly, but it was right at the start of my career when I had little to no experience. Since then Ive realized that my genuine a
33、nswer is “Neither, Id rather be respected.” You dont want to be feared because fear is no way to motivate a team. You may got the job done but at what cost? Similarly, if youre everyone*est friend youll find it difficult to make tough decisions or hit deadlines. But when youre respected, you dont ha
34、ve to be a complete bastard or a lame duck to get the job done.21. Are you willing to put the interests of X Company ahead of your own?Again, another nasty question. If you say yes, youre a corporate whore who doesnt care about family. If you say no, youre disloyal to the company. Im afraid that you
35、ll probably have to say yes to this one though, because youre trying to be the perfect employee at this point, and perfect employees dont cut out early for Jimmy*a*all game.it is situational. if you ; if you . Ethics and professionalism22. So, explain why I should hire you.As Im sure you know, “beca
36、use Im great” or “I really need a job” are not good answers here. This is a time to give the employer a laundry list of your greatest talents that just so happen to match the job description. Its also good to avoid taking potshots at other potential candidates here. Focus on yourself and your talent
37、s, not other peoples flaws.23. Finally, do you have any questions to ask me?Ill finish the way I started, with one of the most common questions asked in interviews. This directly relates to the research youve done on the company and also gives you a chance to show how eager and prepared you are. You
38、ll probably want to ask about benefits if they havent been covered already. A good generic one is “how soon could I start, if I were offered the job of course.” You may also ask what youd be working on. Specifically, in the role youre applying for and how that affects the rest of the company. Always
39、 have questions ready, greeting this one with a blank stare is a rotten way to finish your interview. Good luck and happy job hunting.ponder for a moment, and then ask your interviewer “what aspect of your job do you find most challenging”.I would ask the interviewer, “Why do you like to work here?”
40、24. Where do you want to be in 5 to years?They dont want to hear in the same job you are interviewing for. Ultimately, the HR people are searching for someone who can handle the job now, and has the potential to grow into a high level management job in the future. Do you have those goals too?25. Wou
41、ld you rather work for a big company or a small one?Favorite answer: Id treat any company like it was my own regardless. Total ownership of the situation can get you a long way.General , the worst answer was “I dont know.” Ive since learned that “it depends,” with a couple of examples, is perfectly
42、appropriate附带答案版本：Dont discuss your goals for returning to school or having a family, they are not relevant and couldknock you out of contention for the job. Rather, you want to connect your answer to the job you are applying for.最佳答案 * My long-term goalsinvolvegrowing with a company where I can con
43、tinue to learn,take onadditional responsibilities, andcontributeas much of value as I can. * I see myself asa top performing employeein awell-established organization, like this one. I plan onenhancing my skillsand continuing my involvement in (related) professional associations. * Once I gain addit
44、ional experience, I would like to move on from atechnical positionto management. * In the XYZ Corporation, what is atypical career path forsomeone with my skills and experiences?第一个问题一般都是这个Tell me about yourself/ How would you describe yourself?You walk into the interview room, shake hands with your
45、 interviewer and sit down with your best interviewing smile on. Guess what their first question is? Tell me about yourself. Your interviewer is not looking for a 10-minute dissertation here. Instead, offer a razor sharp sentence or two that sets the stage for further discussion and sets you apart fr
46、om your competitors.Your Unique Selling Proposition (USP)说出你的卖点Give them your synopsis about you answer, specifically your Unique Selling Proposition. Known as a personal branding or a value-added statement, the USP is a succinct, one-sentence description of who you are, your biggest strength and th
47、e major benefit that a company will derive from this strength. Here is an example of a Unique Selling Proposition: Im a seasoned Retail Manager strong in developing training programs and loss prevention techniques that have resulted in revenue savings of over $2.3Million for (employers name) during
48、the past 11 years.What a difference youve made with this statement. Your interviewer is now sitting forward in her chair giving you her full attention. At this point, you might add the following sentence: Id like to discuss how I might be able to do something like that for you. The ball is now back in her court and you have the beginnings of a real discussion and not an interrogation process. “My background to date has been centered around preparing myself to become the very best financial consultant I can become. Let me tell you specificall
