1 / 6 面试中英文提问 talkpresenter Meg Jay illustrated beautifully, in her captivating speech that went vial last week, the danger of dismissing an entire decade of your 20s. If I may piggyback,understanding important tactics of an interviewee fresh out of college (or high school) is beneficial to fighting this. Among many things, it makes you appear more professional, qualified, wise, and able to do any job with integrity, poise, and talent. The questions you ask can easily make or break a crucial career opportunity. We don t want you to squander that, and you dont either. What would better equip you than a mental database of stellar questions to ask interviewers? Here we ll cover 10 important questions, in sequential order of how you should ask them, with vivid descriptions behind the psychology of each. As a bonus, I ll include a short list of questions at the very end that you should avoid like Liberian Ebola when in the interviewee chair. Pre-interview question to ask yourself: How much do I know about this company? 2 / 6 A quick Google search you can pretty much find anything you want to know about a company. Nothing screams unprepared amateur like waltzing into an interview and asking basic questions like, What does your company do? Howenthu siastic,motivated, and intelligent will you appear when you drop knowledge about when the company was founded, it s cornerstone ethics, and some notablesuccesses of the past? 1. How is the culture of this workplace? What will my roles and expectations be? Expressing interest in knowing what s expected of you before you get the position shows that youre serious. It s a display of your desire to fullyunderstandyour obligations before the first day of training. In one word: ambition. 2. Do you enjoy working here? Can you name a time when you felt extra proud to be a part of this company? Chances are high that if they re in a role that involves interviewing people, both of these questions will be a resounding yes. Everyone enjoys talking about themselves, too. If you give them permission to take the floor, you ll not only learn valuable lessons 3 / 6 from someone who may very well be your boss if you land the job. It ll also relieve a lot of the tension interviewingenvironments evoke. 3. How does my position contribute to the goals of the company? A bit like #1, but different enough to note. Understanding the layout and structure of the company, as well as your personal involvement, breeds a team-first attitude. This will rub potential bosses and interviewers the right way by persuading them that youre someone who can take direction, but knows their role and can lead when necessary. 4. What does your company consider a success? -or- What does your company consider excelling? No matter what job,successis what we all strive for. Knowing what that means to a given company is crucial to your daily workflow, development, and progress. This will speak well to a potential employer considering their performance is often based on how well or poorly their underlings perform. 5. Can you describe for me the ideal candidate for this role? 4 / 6 This is to provide you with a bar per say. It gives you something to strive towards, shoot for, and a set criteria of what it takes to be accomplished in the job. Also, if you re asking this it tells the interviewer that you wish to know the golden standard of workmanship that needs to be upheld day in and day out. 6. Does anything on my resume concern you? Do you have questions about anything you see? This is a bit testy because it puts them on the spot, but not in an abrasive, awkward, or strange way. Instead, it will encourage them to ask questions about you personally, which would be a good chance to point out special things on your resume that shine like amateur curling and Easy-Bake-Oven-Offs. Furthermore, this is a good chance to let your personality show, as the other 9 questions are quite professionally oriented. 7. Who will I report to? May I meet them before I start, please? The second part of this question is assuming you have the job locked down, but in myexperienceI m not often reporting to the person who interviewed me so this 5 / 6 is good to ask.
