揭秘：八大你不得不知的面試問題

What is one of your flaws?
說說你的一個缺點吧

This question is very often treated as a joke or a way to turn a negative into a positive (I'm too perfect. I'm an overachiever. I never give up), said Annie Griffin, Chief Happiness Officer at Manifest London. Manifest London
首席幸福官安妮?格里芬說，這個問題經常被當作一個笑話，或變負面為正面的方式，比如回答我太完美了、我是個高成就者、我從不半途而廢。

'I'll tell you what I like, I like to hire human beings not machines. I like to hire someone who is upfront, honest and comfortable in their own skin. Everyone has flaws, I wasn't born yesterday.
“告訴你我喜歡什么，我喜歡聘用人類而不是機器。我喜歡聘用直率、誠實、喜歡以本來面目示人的人。每個人都有缺點，我又不是三歲小孩，騙不了我的。”

'Show me that you are a person who has awareness and honesty. Maybe you hate getting out of bed. Maybe you speak too quietly. You let papers pile up on the printer.
“要向我展示你是一個能意識到自己缺點的誠實的人。也許你討厭起床，也許你說話聲音太輕，也許你任由打印機上的紙堆成堆。”

'When people recognise a flaw it shows a hunger for improvement and that is always desirable.'
“如果一個人能意識到自己的缺點，說明他渴望改進，這才是我們想要的。”

Describe how an apple tastes to someone who can't taste.
怎么向沒有味覺的人描述蘋果的味道？

There isn't a right or wrong answer to this question. This question reveals your ability to think critically. Take a moment to think about how you will respond.
這個問題的答案沒有對錯，只是考察你是否有能力進行批判性思考。好好想一想你該怎么回答。

One way to answer the question is: 'I would describe the taste of an apple as refreshing because of how juicy they are. While a person may not be able to taste, they can probably feel the juice as they bite into the apple. When I think about apples, I imagine the fresh, juicy sensation that comes with taking my first bite.'
回答這個問題的一種方式是：“我會用‘鮮美’一詞來描述蘋果，因為它們美味多汁。盡管可能有的人沒有味覺，但當他們咬上一口，就會感受到那豐盈的果汁。我一想到蘋果，就會聯想到我第一口咬上去時那新鮮多汁的感覺。”

Even if your answer isn't the same as the rest of candidates interviewing, it shows your ability to think on your toes. Your interviewer will appreciate whatever answer you give as long as you provide a reason for why you chose the description you used.
盡管你的答案與其他面試者的答案不一樣，但它展示了你獨立思考的能力。只要你能解釋出為什么選擇這樣的描述，無論你的答案是什么，你的面試官都會欣賞的。

Do you have any questions?
你還有什么問題嗎？

This is an opportunity for you to determine if you’re right for the company, but the interviewer will also use this to uncover what’s important to you in your career.
你可以借此機會來確定這個公司是否適合你，但是面試官也會通過這個問題來發現什么是你找工作最看重的方面。

Prepare plenty of questions in advance because most of the answers will likely be covered during the interview itself. When you are given the opportunity to ask questions it’s important that you have at least one question to ask.
你要提前準備許多問題，因為大多數問題很有可能在面試過程中得到解答。當給你機會提問時，至少要有一個問題可以問，這十分重要。

Here are a few suggestions: What is the difference between being good and great in this job? What are the opportunities for training and development within the business? What do you enjoy most about the company, culture and your job here?
這里給你一些建議：在這份工作中，干得好和干得出色有什么分別？公司內部有培訓和職業發展的機會嗎？你最喜歡公司、企業文化和你自己工作中的哪一點？
