職場英語：如何得體回答HR刁鑽問題

每一個求職者，最大的困難就是如何回答面試人員的問題了。對於沒有任何求職經驗的大學生來說，面對面試官的提問，真的會防不勝防，被打個措手不及，平時的靈牙厲齒這時全下了崗。霧裏雲裏、雜亂無章、東拉西扯、胡說亂侃。但實際上，面試官的提問並沒有那麼可怕，雖然每家公司的問法都是五花八門、千變萬化，但萬變不離其宗，提出的所有問題都有其清晰明確的目的，所謂"運用之妙，存乎一心"，其實如果能夠好好準備，掌握了常規的方法技巧，抓住面試中的採分點，加上臨場鎮定的表現和充分發揮，針對不同類型的問題，要以不同的方式應答。下面是一些經典的常見面試問題，從不同的類型和角度，在考察一個應聘者的個人素質，我們不妨來剖析一下面試官的一般提問方式，做到知己知彼，百戰不殆。

1、

Q: Will you be out to take my job?

提問：你會取代我的地位嗎?

A: Maybe in about twenty years, but by then, I suspect you'll be running the entire company and will need a good, loyal lieutenant to help you manage this department!

回答：也許20年後會。不過到那個時候，您將會掌管整個公司，並且需要一個優秀的、忠誠的員工來協助您管理這個部門。

2、

Q: What if you work here for five years and don't get promoted? Many of our employees don't. Won't you find it frustrating?

提問：如果你在這裏工作了5年還沒有得到升職，我們這裏很多員工都遇到過這種情況。到時，你會不會覺得很受挫?

A: I consider myself ambitious, but I'm also practical. As long as I am continuing to learn and grow within my position, I'll be a happy camper. Different companies promote people at different rates, and I'm pretty confident that working for you will keep my motivated and mentally stimulated for several years to come。

回答：我覺得自己是個很有抱負的人，同時我也很實際。只要我能夠在所從事的崗位上不斷地學習和成長，我就很高興了。不同公司的晉升速度是不一樣的。我自信在貴公司工作可以在未來的幾年裏一直激勵我進步。

3、

Q: What is your biggest weakness that's really a weakness, and not a secret strength?

提問：你最大的缺點是什麼?我指的是真的缺點，而不是披了缺點外衣的優點。

A: I am extremely impatient. I expect my employees to prove themselves on the very first assignment. If they fail, my tendency is to stop delegating to them and start doing everything myself. To compensate for my own weakness, however, I have started to really prep my people on exactly what will be expected of them。

回答：我很沒有耐心。我希望我的下屬能在接到任務的第一時間就證明自己的實力。如果他們失敗了，我就不會再把任務交給他們去做，而是自己親力親爲。不過，爲了彌補這個缺點，我會在一開始把工作交代給他們的時候，就說清楚我希望得到的是什麼樣的結果。

4、

Q: You have changed careers before. Why should I let you experiment on my nickel?

提問：你之前從事過不同的行業，我要怎麼確定你以前的工作經歷對我這一行有用呢?

A. As a career-changer, I believe that I'm a better employee because I've gained a lot of diverse skills from moving around. These skills help me solve problems creatively。

回答：作爲一個在不同行業工作過的人來說，我覺得自己更能勝任成爲好員工，因爲我在不同的行業裏積累了各種工作經驗和技能，這些技能可以幫助我在思考問題時更有想法、更具創造力。

5、

Q: If you knew that things at your company were rocky, why didn't you get out of the company sooner?

提問：如果你知道你之前所在的公司正在面臨困境，那你爲什麼不早點離開那裏呢?

A: I was working so hard to keep my job while everyone around me was being cut that I didn't have any time left over to look for another job. With all of the mergers that have been happening in our field, layoffs are a way of life. At least I gave it my best shot!

回答：當我的同事紛紛被解僱的時候，我還在努力地工作，我沒有時間去找其他的工作。我們這個行業常常會有兼併，下崗也就成了常態。至少，我堅持到了最後。

6、

Q: From your resume, it looks like you were fired twice. How did that make you feel?

提問：從你的簡歷裏可以看出，你曾經兩次被炒魷魚。你對此有什麼樣的看法?

A: After I recuperated from the shock both times, it made me feel stronger. It's true that I was fired twice, but I managed to bounce back both times and land jobs that gave me more responsibility, paid me more money, and were at better firms。

回答：每次從被解僱的震驚中恢復過來之後，我都變得更加強大。沒錯，我的確被解僱了兩次，但每次我都能振作起來，重新找到工作，而且這些工作比之前的都更加需要責任心，當然薪水也更高，公司也更好。

7、

Q: If you were running a company that produces X and the market wastanking for that product, what would you do?

提問：如果你所經營的公司是生產X產品的，而現在市場對該產品的需求不高，你會怎麼做?

A: I would search for new markets for the product while I spurred the engi

neers to change the product to make it more marketable to its original core audience。

回答：我會爲該產品尋找新的市場，同時，我會鼓勵工程師對原產品進行改革升級，使它更適應原目標客戶的需求。

8、

Q: You majored in philosophy. How did that prepare you for this career?

提問：你是學哲學專業的，你認爲這對你從事我們這個行業有什麼幫助?

A: Philosophy didn't prepare me for a career in architecture at all. But it did force me to become philosophical about my prospects. After two years of trying to figure out what to do with my life, I visited Chicago one weekend, and was absolutely spell bound by the gorgeous architecture all around me. I came home, applied to architecture schools all over the country, and was accepted by one of the best. I've never looked is definitely the career that I was meant to be in。

回答：哲學對於我從事建築行業來說並沒有幫助，但是這卻讓我不得不從哲學角度來考慮我的前景。我花了兩年時間考慮自己到底該從事什麼工作。有一次，我去了芝加哥，在那裏我被周圍奇妙的建築所深深吸引。我回到家，向國內最好的那些建築院校遞交了申請，並被其中一所錄取。我從來沒有後悔過，這就是我想要從事的行業。

9、

Q: Are you telling me that, now that you're forty-something, you would be willing to start at an entry-level position just to get your foot in the door here?

提問：你現在已經40多歲了，而你願意從頭開始，接受一份入門級的工作，你是這個意思嗎?

A: Sometimes you need to take a step backward to move your career forward. Starting in an entry-level role would allow me to learn your business from the ground up. The career that I've been in is so different than yours that I would love the opportunity to start over again in your field. The salary cut will be well worth it。

回答：有時候，退後一步纔能有助於職業生涯更好地進步。從頭做起可以讓我全面地瞭解所從事的這個行業。我之前所做的工作與現在的這個太不一樣了，我很願意在這個領域從零開始。我相信即使薪水變少了也很值得。

10、

Q: From your resume, I notice that you interned at a small investment banking boutique. Did you pursue a full-time job offer with them? What happened?

提問：從你的簡歷裏，我注意到你曾經在一家小型的投資銀行實習過，你後來有沒有申請該公司的全職職位呢?後來發生了什麼事呢?

A: Yes, I did very well at my internship, and I had originally assumed that I would come on staff once I graduated from college. However, XX drastically cut back the number of new hires they were planning. As fate would have it, they will not be hiring any of the interns they had last summer. I love working at XX, and I brought some references with me today to show you that my job performance there was stellar。

回答：是的，我在那裏實習得非常好，一開始我也認爲自己在畢業後就會留在那裏工作。但是，XX公司那時突然減少了招聘新員工的計劃，當時所有的實習生都沒有被錄用。我喜歡在XX公司工作，我也帶來了他們給我出具的推薦函，以證明我在那裏優秀的工作表現。
