五十条面试常见问题及推荐回答(英文)
1. Tell me about yourself
Cover four areas in your life: your early years, education, work experience, and your current situation. Keep your complete answer to about 2 minutes; don't ramble or elaborate. This is your 2-minute self-introduction and you will be very accomplished at giving it by the time you are in job interviews. Because this question usually comes early in the interview, you will gain confidence by knowing you can answer it well.
2. What can you offer us that other candidates can't?
If this question is asked early in the interview, you might respond by discussing generally how your skills and experience would benefit the company. To get more specific, you will need to know something about the job situation they have in mind and that subject is not usually discussed until the end of the interview. Resist the temptation to frame an answer based on your assumptions about the position. If the question is asked after the interviewer has described the position, only then can you relate any of your accomplishments to the problems of your prospective employer. This is an opportune time to discuss your problem-solving abilities.
3. What are your strengths?
You should be able to list 3 or 4 of your key strengths that are relevant to their needs, based on the research and other data you have gathered about their company.
4. How successful have you been so far?
Be prepared to define success for yourself and then respond. Try to choose accomplishments that relate to the company's needs and values.
5. What are your limitations?
Respond with a strength which, if overdone, can be a detriment and become a weakness. For example, you might. say, "My desire to get the job done sometimes causes me to be overzealous and demanding of my organization. But I am aware of this problem and believe that I have it under control." Or deal with your need for further training in some aspect of your profession. Do not claim to be faultless, but limit your answer to one specific issue.
