文面试问题加答案
\"What are your goals for the future?\" or \"Where do
you see yourself in five years?\"
Don\t discuss your goals for returning to school or having
a family, they are not relevant and could knock you out of contention for the
job. Rather, you want to connect your answer to the job you
are applying for.

technical position
to management.
* In the XYZ Corporation, what is a typical career path for someone

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
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 from 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 the major
benefit that a company will derive from this strength. Here is an
example of a Unique Selling proposition: \"I\m a seasoned Retail
Manager strong in developing training programs and loss prevention
techniques that have resulted in revenue savings of over
$2.3Million for (employer\s name) during the past 11
years.\"
What a difference you\ve 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:
\"I\d 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 specifically how I\ve prepared myself. I am an undergraduate
student in finance and accounting at _________ University. My past
experiences has been in retail and higher education. Both aspects
have prepared me well for this career.”
首先要明确他们想了解的是哪方面的内容Do
they want to know about your career so far, about your hobbies or
family life? If in doubt, ASK them to clarify what they wish you to
talk about. Then give a short factual answer, ending with
\"is there anything else
you\d like to know about me?\"
* How would you describe
yourself?
这个问题的答案应该是和他们的招聘广告上对于雇员的要求的基本一致,所以,看看你有哪些特质满足了他们的要求吧
Try to think about what the interviewers are looking for and keep
this in mind as you answer interview questions. Remember the job
advert? Were they looking for initiative, a good communicator,
someone with good attention to detail? Describe yourself in these
terms. Start with \"I am..\" and not with \"I think...\" or \"I
believe..\" so that you sound self aware and confident.
-----------------------------------------------------------
When you\re interviewing for an internal position within your
company, you may be asked what you will do if you don\t get the
job. The interviewer wants to know whether you are concerned about
just the advancement opportunity or the company.
内部职位竞聘常会被问到如果你没有得到这份工作的话你将会怎么办的问题。
最佳答案
I am committed to this company and its advancement so,
should I not be selected, I will work with and support whoever
might get selected. However, I do feel that my experience in the
department and with the team would make me the best
candidate
How would your boss describe
you?
If you get the job, your interviewer may be your future
boss so you need to answer this question carefully. Describe
yourself as any boss would want to see you. You might
say:
\"My boss would describe me as hard working,
loyal, friendly and committed. He would say that I work well on my
own initiative and deliver what he wants on time and to a high
standard\".
Again, don’t use the term “I think my boss would say..” as
it gives an element of doubt. Be positive and certain with the
interview answer you give.
* What motivates you?
I am motivated by being around other positive people, we
might question if working alone would suit them.
I am motivated by targets.
* What do you look for in a
job?
This is really a question about suitability, though we\ve
included it here.
Remember the advert? Focus on the advert criteria and you
won\t go far wrong. For example, if the advert called for someone
to lead others, you might say:
\"I like a job where I can lead and motivate others and
enjoy seeing improvements in team performance\".
If the advert called for a target-focused individual, you
might say:
\"I like having targets. They encourage me to stretch myself and beat them!\"
* What is your personal mission statement or
motto?
Not everyone has one, but because you might be asked,
think what yours would be.
\"Just do it!\"
\"Right first time, every time\".
\"Less talk, more action\".
\"Treat others as you\d wish to be treated\".
\"Fortune favours the brave\".
\"Quality, quality, quality...\".
Our advice: This is one of those times when we ask candidates to
explain their answers to our interview questions. So, whatever you
say, it\s likely you\ll be asked to give a reason or example so
have one in mind. For most jobs, you want to sound positive and
motivated, but possibly not ruthless or inconsiderate.
* What do you enjoy most about what you do
now?
\"I really enjoy the technical nature of the job and the
speed at which I\m able to fix faults. I get a lot of satisfaction
from getting people back to work as soon as possible\".
If working as part of a
team is mentioned as a requirement of the job, you might
answer:
\"I really enjoy being part
of a team. I like it when the team pulls together to achieve
something and everyone can take some credit\".
* What do you enjoy least about your current
role?
A good interview answer might go something like
this:
\"Actually, I enjoy everything about what I do. I suppose
if I had to give something up, it would be...\"
The \something\ depends on
you, but it\s best to mention something incidental to your job,
like admin or paperwork. So you might say:
\"I\m not sure (pause). I
suppose if I had to pick something to give up it would be
paperwork. I know it\s important, and I do it well, but if someone
else did if for me, that would be great!\"
* Why do you want to leave your current
job/company?
If you\re applying for a
more senior job, you might answer:
\"I really enjoy what I do,
but I\m ready for more
responsibility and challenge which your job offers.
Unfortunately, my current job/employer can\t give me
this.\"
If this isn\t the reason, use yours instead, but always be positive
in your answers to tough interview question
* What do you think of your current boss?
\"My current boss is great.
He sets the team challenging but realistic targets and motivates us
to achieve them...\"
\"My current boss is very
good. She deals with her team firmly but fairly and enjoys our
respect because of this...\"
If your current boss is not great, and you are prepared to answer
more interview questions about this, say so, but do balance each
criticism with a positive point. Remember the need to appear
positive in your answers to interview questions. You might
say:
\"My current boss has strengths and weaknesses. He is very
good at listening to people but sometimes, in my view, doesn\t deal
with underperformers firmly enough. This affects team morale
sometimes...\"
* What will you miss about your present
job?
people is the best interview answer here. Say anything
else and you\re suggesting the job you\re applying for won\t give
you everything you had and more, and might even leave you
wanting!
As you think about answers to interview questions, always
have in mind the need to create a positive impression.
\"Well I\m confident that the job you\re offering will give
me everything I have now and more so I don\t think I\ll miss
anything about the job itself. But I\ll miss some of the people of
course...\"
* What can you tell me about XYZ Company?
If you need to, start by saying \"Is it ok if I refer to my notes?\".
When you get the nod, off you go.
A good interview answer should include short factual statements
covering such things as the Company\s history, its products, staff
numbers, turnover and future business objectives. Something like
this is fine:
\"I believe the Company
began in 1967, with just one outlet, but now has 25. From what I\ve
read, you sell A, B and C products across Europe and the States and
have a turnover in excess of $5 million. You employ 125 staff. I
beleive you hope to enter the Asian market by 2010\".
\"I\ve done some
research and can tell you more if you like\".
You will likely hear \"No, that\s fine. Thank
you.\"
Your interviewers will be
impressed that you prepared and made notes and you\re off to a good
start.
* What do you think XYZ
Company can offer you?
There are two bits to this interview question, the
role and the Company. Mention both. You might say:
\"I\m told the Company has
a firm commitment to individual training and development. This is
great news for me because I\m keen to learn and advance in the
Company. The role itself appears challenging and rewarding which
I\ll find very motivating\".
* If you\re successful, what do you think you\ll be doing
day-to-day?
You might start by saying \"I understand that I\ll be...\". Then you
could talk about the main role, any other activities and any
targets you expect to be given.
What are your
strengths/weaknesses?
IMpORTANT -- this common job interview question can be
asked in many different ways, such as \"What qualities do
you admire in others that you would like to develop in
yourself?\"
Strengths should be easy enough to think about (keep the
position in mind).
Talking about weaknesses can be harder but good interview
answers are still possible. Many people choose to mention something
which they\ve recognized as being a weakness but have
overcome.
\"I\d like to be more organized, like one of my colleagues. She
doesn\t have to try. But because I don\t find it as easy as her, I
use to-do lists and a diary to help me successfully manage my
work\".
On a final note, it\s much safer to highlight your lack of
experience or knowledge as a weakness than a fault in your
personality. Employers can always give you experience but few want
to help you overcome shortcomings in your personality! So avoid
telling interviewers that you \"get bored\" or \"too involved\" or
\"frustrated\"!
Why did you think you are suited to this
job?
What they are really asking is \"You know what we are
looking for so can you tell us what you have done or what you have,
that is relevant.\"
Why should we give
the job to you above other applicants?
This is often our closing question. We want to know, in a
nutshell, why you are the best candidate for the job. This is a
chance to list your best attributes as they relate to the vacancy.
Don\t be cocky, but
don\t be shy.\\
* How well do you work under
pressure?
“I know that all jobs involve some sort of pressure at
some time. I can work as well under
pressure as I do at any other time but when I am busy, I
prioritize
activities so that my workload is
manageable.”
If the interviewers focus on other pressure, such as
pressure to meet targets, dealing with difficult customers etc,
give an appropriate reply, mentioning past situations where you
have coped under such pressure.
* What sort of people do you find it difficult to
work with?
“I am an easy going person who seems to get on with
everyone. If I have to pick a type of person that bothers me, it\s
the one who doesn\t pull their weight or isn\t worried about the
standard of their work because it reflects badly on the rest of the
team.”
* Sell me this pen!
In interviews for sales
job, you may hear this, believe us! In fact, one of us had a
non-sales interview and was asked this, unexpectedly. The object
you are asked to sell could in fact be anything. Some interviewers
like to see whether you focus on the benefits of the object or its
features. The features of the pen might be that it\s blue, with a
roller ball and
plastic coating.
The benefits might be that it\s reliable, easy to hold and leak proof.
* What key skills do you think you need to be
successful in this role?
You got this far because your job application form or
resume or CV matched the interviewers\ criteria as specified in the
job advert. Just expand on this in your job interview answers. List
the skills you think are required, giving a little explanation as
to why each is needed.
You might then be asked to give examples where you\ve used
one or more of these skills. These are behavioural interview
questions.
* Where do you see yourself in five years
time?
This can be a difficult job interview question to answer,
especially if you\ve not thought beyond getting this job!
When you answer, you want to sound
ambitious enough to be motivated to do a good job, but not too
ambitious in case your interviewers think you\re only using this
job as a stepping stone to something better.
I can be successful in this job and taken on additional
responsibilities and be considered suitable for
promotion.
* How does this job fit into your career
plans?
This is a similar job interview question to the one above really,
except that it looks beyond five years. Be realistic. You might say
something like this if you\re going for a middle-management
position:
\"My ambition is to lead a department and be involved in
strategic decision-making at a senior level. I expect the role I\m
applying for to give me more experience of leading and some
introduction to strategy so that I\m ready for a senior role in a
few years time\".
* Where did you think you\d be at this stage in
your life?
Avoid saying further than you are now! It\s better to show
you\ve met or exceeded your ambitions than fallen short of them.
Tell the interviewers that you are happy with your life and career,
but are looking for more challenge as you like to stretch yourself
to achieve more.
* If you could start again, what career decisions would
you make differently?
You\re on sticky ground if
you start trying to think of hypothetical career changes that might
have served you better in the past. Your answers to interview
questions will suggest you\re not happy with the way things are and
no-one wants to hire an unhappy person.
“I wouldn\t change anything. I am happy with my career as
it is now but want fresh challenges.”
\"I\m not the kind of person
who looks back with regrets. I prefer to invest my energy looking
forward\".
* How would you approach a typical
project?
If you\re applying for a
project based job, such as a project manager, you will be asked
this job interview question. Don\t give a long winded answer, but
try to demonstrate that you would take into account the main
components of effective project planning such as:
- planning the schedule backwards from completion
- Working out what you need to get the job done effectively and on
time
- Budgeting -- costs, time and resources
- Allowing a contingency
* How would you get
the best from people?
If you are applying for any management role, it is highly likely
you\ll be asked this job interview question. The kind of skills
that we\d be looking for in a good applicant are:
- Good communication
- Teamwork skills
- Recognizing what each person can bring
- Setting a good example
- praising good performances
* Give us an example of how you have resolved
conflict.
As this is a behavioural interview question, you need to find an
example of conflict that you have resolved. The sort of skills you
need to demonstrate in your interview answer are:
- Fairness
- Discussing problems with individuals in private
- Making sure you get to the root of the problem
- Finding a solution that everyone will accept
* What did you look for when you hired people in
the past?
This is a general question. Don\t think about specific skills of
the job you are applying for. Think generally about the key
attributes everyone looks for in a good applicant. Among others,
these include:
- Aptitude
- Skills
- Initiative
- Flexibility
- Commitment
Do you work best by
yourself or as part of a team?
Most jobs require both, to
varying degrees.
As with all answers to job
interview questions, think about the position you are applying for.
Are the interviewers looking for a team worker? Did they mention
this in the advert or is it implicit in the job description?
If a team player is required, tell
the interviewers that you work well in a team. Give an example if
you can. You might say:
\"I prefer to work in
teams. I find that better decisions are reached when people work
together and share ideas. Of course I\m happy to work alone when
required too.\"
If the job is mostly done
alone, you might say:
\"I work very well by myself because I\m self motivated,
organized and conscientious. I\m comfortable working in teams
though and recognize that this is better in some
situations\".
* What kind of personality do you work best with
and why?
You will deal with many
personalities in any job. If the interviewers know the people
you\ll be working with, they might have a personality in mind! It\s
hard for you to know this however so stick to a safe answer. You
might say:
\"I find I work well with almost everyone but who I work
best with might depend on the activity. If it\s a project, I prefer
to work with someone who\s practical and organized because this is
important. If it\s leading a discussion, working with someone who\s
a good facilitator helps.\"
* How would you go about establishing your
credibility quickly within the team?
Gaining credibility quickly is important. Make sure you
listen, learn, question, understand. You might say: \"That\s a good
question and I realize it\s important to gain credibility quickly.
I believe the best way is to show your colleagues that you respect
their experience and want to learn from them as well as about them.
You need to listen, ask the right questions and make sure you
understand. If they can see you\ll fit in early on, it
helps\".
* Tell me about a time where you had to deal with
conflict on the job.
This is a behavioural interview question.
If you can\t think of an example,
it\s ok to say so. If that\s the case, either say how you would
deal with it, or use an example where someone you know dealt with
conflict well.
Most
interviewers would look for:
o Getting both sides of the argument
o Suggesting and agreeing compromise
o Showing tactfulness
o Showing empathy
* What irritates you about other people, and how
do you deal with it?
personal conflict is inevitable in the
workplace Try not to say that A or B
irritates you. Instead, talk about the characteristics which you
find hard, not the people. You might say:
\"I find I get on with most
people so it\s not normally a problem. It\s rather disappointing
when people don\t pull
their weight I suppose and this has happened. In that
instance I spoke to the person in private, explained that they were
letting the team down and asked them to make more of an effort.
They did.\"
\"Can you give me some idea of the salary you\re
expecting?\"
is one of those job interview questions that can really
get you tongue-tied.
What do you say? Usually, moments later, you realize
you\ve accepted a salary far lower than you wanted. Although you
were prepared to negotiate your salary, you panicked at the last
minute and lost your nerve. As you leave the interview room, your
excitement at getting the job is tainted. You can\t help feeling
undervalued, even a little duped. Ask for too much and you risk
looking unrealistic, over confident, maybe even greedy. Ask for too
little and you risk undervaluing yourself and your contribution,
and ultimately being underpaid. For many of us, salary is one of
the most important factors in taking a job, but it\s often the
hardest to deal with.
Nerves got the better of her and worried about sounding
greedy, she suggested a lower amount. When she was offered the job,
there was the salary she suggested, right at the start of the offer
letter. She wasn\t surprised but she was disappointed. So how can
you avoid this happening to you?
* Research is essential
when it comes to suggesting a reasonable salary. Take time to look
though job advertisements for similar positions. Research the WWW
or post a question in a forum or on Yahoo! Answers
Research the Company too. A
large Company, if asked, will probably have more scope to offer you
a better benefits package than a smaller one
* Don\t initiate salary discussions or say anything about
pay during your job interview unless asked
* If you\re asked for a
figure, suggest a range rather than an actual figure. This gives
room to negotiate if a firm job offer is made during the job
interview
* If you\re offered the job and reach agreement on a
salary, make sure the written job offer states this amount
clearly
* And when it comes to the actual salary negotiation here
are 6 essential salary
* The most important thing
to remember when discussing your salary is that it is a
negotiation. Like any form of bartering, the first figure you
mention in the job interview probably won\t be the figure you agree
on. But it\s a place to start.
* Be confident about what you\re worth. Recognise that
you\re bringing something unique to the Company, and that you\re
worth the wage you\re requesting. Even if you\ve only just finished
school or college, you still have something unique to offer and
it\s important to bear that in mind as you think about salary
negotiation.
* Remember also that it\s not easy finding the right
person for a job. If you\ve impressed the interviewers enough to
employ you, you have the upper hand and paying a little more to
keep you isn\t too big a deal. So ask for a slightly higher salary
than you expect.
* If the job advertisement mentions a salary range,
employers will be prepared to pay more for the right candidate. If
you\re a little uncomfortable asking for the top figure, choose one
just above the mid-range. This gives the impression that you are
worth a good wage and is a great place to start.
Assuming an advertised
salary range of $30,000 to $42,000, you might say this:
\"I\m expecting a salary in
the region of $38,000, based on my knowledge and
experience\".
* Remember that salary is not everything. If the salary is
less than you hoped and the Company won\t or can\t go any higher,
ask about other benefits which are important to you like training
courses, financial help with further study and so on.
What specific goals, including those related to
your occupation, have you established for your
life?
I want to be working for an
excellent company like yours in a job in which I am managing
information. I plan to contribute my leadership, interpersonal, and
technical skills. My long-range career goal is to be the best
information systems technician I can for the company I work
for.
3. How has your college experience prepared you
for a business career?
I have prepared myself to
transition into the work force through real-world experience
involving travel abroad, internship, and entrepreneurial
opportunities. While interning with a private organization in
Ecuador, I developed a 15-page marketing plan composed in Spanish
that recommended more effective ways the company could promote its
services. I also traveled abroad on two other occasions in which I
researched the indigenous culture of the Mayan Indians in Todos
Santos, Guatemala, and participate din a total language immersion
program in Costa Rica. As you can see from my academic,
extracurricular, and experiential background, I have
unconditionally committed myself to success as a marketing
professional.
4. please describe the ideal job for you following
graduation.
My ideal job is one that incorporates both my education
and practical work skills to be the best I can be. Namely combining
my education in finance with my working knowledge of customer
service operations, entrepreneurial abilities, computer skills, and
administrative skills. I want to utilize my analytical expertise to
help people meet their financial goals. This is exactly why I am
convinced that I would be a very valuable member of the Merrill
Lynch team.
What influenced you to choose this
career?
My past experiences have shown me that I enjoy facing and
overcoming the challenge of making a sale. Without a doubt, once I
have practiced my presentation and prepared myself for objections,
I feel very confident approaching people I don\t know and
convincing them that they need my product. Lastly, I like sales
because my potential for success is limited only by how much of
myself I dedicate toward my goal. If any profession is founded on
self-determinism, it surely must be sales.
At what point did you choose this
career?
I knew that I wanted to
pursue information systems technology about my
sophomore year in college. It was then that I realized that my
hobby (computers) was taking up most of my time. My favorite
courses were IT courses. I also realized that I was doing
computer-oriented work-study that I enjoyed so much I would have
done it for free.
What specific goals have you established for your
career?
My goals include becoming a
Certified Financial Advisor so I can obtain a better working
knowledge of financial research analysis, which would allow me
contribute to my client base as a better financial consultant since
I would have that extra insight into the companies they are seeking
to invest in. Also this is the foundation block to advancing my
career to portfolio manager or even branch office
manager.
What will it take to attain your goals, and what
steps have you taken toward attaining them?
I\ve already done some
research on other workers at Merrill Lynch to see how they achieved
similar goals. I know that Merrill Lynch encourages the pursuit and
will reimburse for
tuition of a graduate degree. I plan on pursuing a MBA to
give me an even more extensive knowledge of business and financial
analysis.
How did you handle a
challenge?
* During a difficult financial period, I was able to satisfactorily
negotiate repayment schedules with multiple vendors.
* When the software development of our new product stalled, I
coordinated the team which managed to get the schedule back on
track. We were able to successfully troubleshoot the issues and
solve the problems, within a very short period of time.
* A long-term client was about to take their business to a
competitor. I met with the customer and was able to change how we
handled the account on a day-to-day basis, in order to keep the
business
When you\re asked what your greatest weakness is, try to
turn a negative into a positive. For example, a sense of urgency to
get projects completed or wanting to triple-check every item in a
spreadsheet can be turned into a strength i.e. you are a candidate
who will make sure that the project is done on time and your work
will be close to perfect.
Weakness
* When I\m working on a project, I don\t want just to meet
deadlines. Rather, I prefer to complete the project well ahead of
schedule.
* Being organized wasn\t my strongest point, but I implemented a
time management system that really helped my organization
skills.
* I like to make sure that my work is perfect, so I tend to perhaps
spend a little too much time checking it. However, I\ve come to a
good balance by setting up a system to ensure everything is done
correctly the first time.
* I used to wait until the last minute to set appointments for the
coming week, but I realized that scheduling in advance makes much
more sense.
Strength
* When I\m working on a project, I don\t want just to meet
deadlines. Rather, I prefer to complete the project well ahead of
schedule.
* I have exceeded my sales goals every quarter and I\ve earned a
bonus each year since I started with my current
employer.
* My time management skills are excellent and I\m organized,
efficient, and take pride in excelling at my work.
* I pride myself on my customer service skills and my ability to
resolve what could be difficult situations.
How well can you work in stressful
situations?
* Stress is very important to me. With stress, I do the best
possible job. The appropriate way to deal with stress is to make
sure I have the correct balance between good stress and bad stress.
I need good stress to stay motivated and productive.
* I react to situations, rather than to stress. That way, the
situation is handled and doesn\t become stressful.
* I actually work better under pressure and I\ve found that I enjoy
working in a challenging environment.
* From a personal perspective, I manage stress by visiting the gym
every evening. It\s a great stress reducer.
* prioritizing my responsibilities so I have a clear idea of what
needs to be done when, has helped me effectively manage pressure on
the job.
* If the people I am managing are contributing to my stress level,
I discuss options for better handling difficult situations with
them.
What’s motivates you?
* I was responsible for several projects where I directed
development teams and implemented repeatable processes. The teams
achieved 100% on-time delivery of software products. I was
motivated both by the challenge of finishing the projects ahead of
schedule and by managing the teams that achieved our
goals.
* I\ve always been motivated by the desire to do a good job at
whatever position I\m in. I want to excel and to be successful in
my job, both for my own personal satisfaction and for my
employer.
* I have always wanted to ensure that my company\s clients get the
best customer service I can provide. I\ve always felt that it\s
important, both to me personally, and for the company and the
clients, to provide a positive customer experience.
* I have spent my career in sales, typically in commission-based
positions, and compensation has always been a strong factor in
motivating me to be the top salesperson at my prior
employers.
Salary Negotiations
If you\re asked what your salary requirements are, say
that they are open based upon the position and the overall
compensation package. Or tell the employer you\d like to know more
about the responsibilities and the challenges of the job prior to
discussing salary.
Another option is to give
the employer a salary range based upon the salary research you\ve
done up front. Once you\ve received the offer you don\t need to
accept (or reject) it right away. A simple \"I need to think it
over\" can get you an increase in the original offer.
And if you\re ambivalent about the position a \"no\" can
bring you a better offer too. I turned down a position I knew I
didn\t want, regardless of salary, and received three follow-up
phone calls upping the compensation package.
Negotiating a Raise
Be aware of company policy regarding compensation. Be
flexible. Would you consider an extra couple of weeks vacation
instead of a raise? I know someone who\s regularly taken time-off
instead of money and now has six vacation weeks a year... Then, ask
your supervisor for a meeting to discuss salary. present your
request, supported by documentation, calmly and rationally. Don\t
ask for an immediate answer. Your boss is mostly likely going to
have to discuss it with Human Resources and/or other company
managers. Despite your best efforts, there may simply not be enough
money in the budget to increase your salary or compensation package
offer. The company may also not want to create inequities by paying
one person more than others in a similar position. In that case,
you can at least know you tried. plus, if this is a job you really
think that you\re going to love, consider whether the company
culture, the benefits, and the job itself are worth it - regardless
of the salary.
What Are You passionate About?
* One of my greatest passions is helping others. When I was
younger, I\ve enjoyed helping mom with household repairs. As I grew
older, that habit grew and I desired to help others as well. I like
helping people find solutions that meet their specific
needs.
* I\m passionate about painting. I take an evening art class once a
week and try to find time each weekend to paint. painting is a good
way for me to relax and even though I don\t have much talent, I do
it enjoy it.
* I lost my father to pancreatic cancer and ever since then, I have
spent time volunteering to help raise awareness and funding for
cancer research. I volunteer for panCan, the advocacy group, and
I\m part of their volunteer network. One of the things I\m
passionate is to assist in finding a cure, however I
can.
* I\m passionate about making a difference. When I\m involved with
a project at work I want to do my best to achieve success. I feel
the same way about what I do in my personal life.
* I\m an avid skier and I like to spend weekends and vacations on
the ski slopes.
\"What Do people Most Often Criticize About
You?
There\s no on-going criticism. I\m open to personal and
professional growth and welcome the opportunity to
improve.
I have a teenage daughter - few things I do are okay on
her radar screen.
Why do you want this job?
* This is not only a fine opportunity, but this company is a place
where my qualifications can make a difference. As a finance
executive well versed in the new stock options law, I see this
position as made to order. It contains the challenge to keep me on
my toes. That\s the kind of job I like to anticipate every
morning.
* I want this job because it seems tailored to my competencies,
which include sales and marketing. As I said earlier, in a previous
position I created an annual growth rate of 22 percent in a flat
industry. Additionally, the team I would work with looks
terrific.
* I well understand that this is a company on the way up. Your Web
site says the launch of several new products is imminent. I want be
a part of this business as it grows.
* Having worked through a college business major building decks and
porches for neighbors, this entry-level job for the area\s most
respected home builder has my name on it.
* As a dedicated technician, I like doing essential research. Being
part of a breakthrough team is an experience I\d love to
repeat.
* This job is a good fit for what I\ve been interested in
throughout my career. It offers a nice mix of short- and long-term
activities. My short-term achievements keep me cranked up and the
long-term accomplishments make me feel like a billion
bucks.
* I want this job selling theater tickets because I\d be good at
it. I\m good at speaking to people and handling cash. I would like
a job with regular hours and I\m always on time.
* Although some companies are replacing Americans with imported
low-wage workers, you are standing tall. This company\s successful
strategies, good reputation and values make it heads and shoulders
above its competition.
* I\d fit right in as a counter clerk in your fine drycleaners. I
have observed that the counter clerk position requires competence
at handling several activities in quick order -- customer service,
payments, bagging and phones. I like multitasking and, as a
homemaker, I have a lot of practice in keeping all the balls in the
air.
* The work I find most stimulating allows me to use both my
creative and research skills. The buzz on this company is that it
rewards people who deliver solutions to substantial
problems.

一、你的个人资料
二、目标
你的简历应适合你所求的职位,要明确提出你的求职意向。如果你知道该职位所需要的经验和资格,在简历中你必须描述你能胜任该工作的条件,越具体越好。大部分求职者没有某职位的具体材料,有时可以从朋友那里、竞争对手、公司年报和其它类似来源获得这些消息。写简历应能适合一个职位的要求,但是通常写的时候要将你的资格和能力展现得宽一些。简历的目标通常有以下几种:
@ 谋求某一方面的初始职位
@ 谋求某些部门下属机构的管理职位。
@ 换工作--从某一专业转为另一专业等。
这些是简历的大的目标类型,你的个人简历应从成百上千的类别中挑选一个特定的具体的目标。你到底想要求得到什么样的工作,不应当留给用人单位去猜测。
三、资格
简单概述资格,长度可以是一段,也可以是一页。提出你的目标后,你应该证明你有达到这个目标的能力。资格包括学历、过去的工作经历乃至性格;
@ 雄心:可以通过在大学勤工俭学的经验来展示;
@ 自我激励:可以通过取得的好分数来证明;
@ 坚定志向:可以通过长期追求同一目标以及实现这一目标参加相关培训等来展现。
@ 才智:可以用在班级的名次和所获得的各种奖励来说明。
如果你有丰富的'经验,可以依次写满一页。你可以客观地,也可以主观地描述你的能力和资格。加入一些你的修改会使简历-尤其较短的简历-读起来充满亲切感。
四、实践经历
描述实践经历时,简单描述参加工作的内容,如销售什么产品或提供什么服务,列明你在工作中的职责,注意突出重点,以避免简历过于繁琐。责任的描述之后应紧跟此责任的成本。
不管你负责什么工作,只有在你描述了做得怎样之后才会有意义。例如:这项工作需要你做的是什么?你是什么做的?做得怎么样?按照编年顺序写出每一家公司人事的每一项工作。
五、学历
按照惯例,如果你还没有工作,受教育经历经常出现在简历最靠前的位置。如果工作一年以上,工作经历比受教育经历更重要,教育经历放在工作经历后面再写。
如果获得了学位或读过大学,中学的教育就显得不那么重要了。当然你也可能愿意把中学的名字列在上面。
如果学习名次在班里排在前面,要在简历里提及你的名次;反之,则略去。尽量提到一些你所受过的奖励、表扬以及获得过的奖学金等等。
如果你受过的教育或某些课程与你求职目标有直接关系,更应在简历中明确地写出来。
六、课外活动
多加入一些课外活动的内容可以增加简历的生气。如果内容太少则应略去。因为随着时间的推移、你的阅历、经验的积累,这些内容就显得不那么重要了。可以把当选为学生组织领导、体育比赛、在校刊发表文章等内容写进去,它们将使用人单位更多地了解你,也许会在挑选过程中成为你入选的强有力条件。
七、求学时的假期工作
用人单位比较看重那些在上学期间参加社会实践活动的申请人。因此,假期(指寒假和暑假)工作是简历值得一提的补充内容,同样,勤工俭学也是很好的素材。
八、专业团体的会员资格
专业团体、学会和各种联合会之类的会员资格使你的经验大为广阔。有些职业具有这些专业会员资格几乎是不可缺少的条件。所有被承认的工业、商业、学术团体的会员资格都应写入简历。
九、证书和执照
把你所得的证书和执照全都列上,建议只用文字形式列明证书的名称和等级。因为证书复印件不一定能够让看简历的人清晰直观地了解证书的内容,同时,这几年用复印件制作虚假证书的情况比较普遍,因此在简历中附上证书复印件说服力一般。如果在文字列明之后加上“如有需要,可随时提供证书原件”,并在面试时随身带上证书原件将会更具说服力。
十、爱好
在简历中可提及良好的习惯和健康的爱好,如果有突出成绩更应该在简历中提到
十一、照片
大多数负责招聘的人员认为照片不重要。但是附上一张两寸照片会增加简历的影响力。最好要清晰的彩照。切记,那些艺术照在应聘商业类职位时不可取,除非招聘单位有要求。
十二、艺术修饰
简单的修饰可以使简历美观一些,不过在决定是否使用修饰时要慎重。
十三、图表
图表在简历中没有多少附加值,除非出于专业需要。
十四、证明信
证明信可以有效地成为客观评价的证据,但切不可表现出炫耀的态度。你可以为简历中某一段经历提供证据,尤其可以把某种奖励或证明附在简历的总结段落或总结一章中提到,或者也可以在谈及你担任某些重要职务或取得某些重要成就是把证明摆出来。
