面試英語：面試結(jié)束前 求職者必問4大問題

"I am always surprised how some interviewees tend to trail off towards the end of an interview instead of finishing strong and leaving a lasting impression," says Zachary Rose, CEO and founder of Green Education Services, a green jobs training firm in New York City. Whether you're a senior preparing for campus recruiting or a recent graduate still hunting for a job, here are the top questions experts recommend asking at the end of a job interview to leave a great final impression on hiring managers and establish yourself as a top candidate.“

在面試結(jié)束前的最后幾分鐘，很多求職者的表現(xiàn)平平，不能給人留下深刻的印象，這讓我很意外。”紐約職場新人培訓(xùn)公司的創(chuàng)始人兼CEO扎卡里·羅斯這樣說 。不論參加校園招聘還是社會(huì)招聘，都可以按照專家的建議，在面試結(jié)束前問幾個(gè)問題，借此加深給面試官留下的印象。

"Is There Any Reason Why You Wouldn't Hire Me?"

“如果貴公司沒有錄用我，請(qǐng)問會(huì)是哪些原因?”

Kelsey Meyer, senior vice president of Digital Talent Agents in Columbia, Mo., says, "A recent candidate asked, 'If you were to not offer the job to me, what would be the reason?' This was extremely straightforward and a little blunt, but it allowed me to communicate any hesitations I had about the candidate before he left the interview, and he could address them right there."

來自密蘇里州哥倫比亞市的凱爾西·邁耶，是數(shù)字人才代理公司的高級(jí)副總裁，她說，“在最近一次面試中，有一位求職者這樣問我，‘如果貴公司不打算雇用我，那請(qǐng)問理由是?’這個(gè)問題非常直接甚至有點(diǎn)生硬，但如果那時(shí)候我還沒決定是否錄用這名應(yīng)聘者，那這個(gè)問題可以提醒我立刻想清楚。”

"This one question is something I would suggest every single candidate ask," adds Meyer. It lets you know where you stand and if you need to clarify anything for the interviewer. "If you have the guts to ask it, I don't think you'll regret it," she says.

因此她建議，“每一個(gè)應(yīng)聘者都該問問這個(gè)問題，只要你有膽量，就絕對(duì)不會(huì)后悔這個(gè)決定。”它不僅可以幫助面試官理清思路，還能幫助求職者更加明確自己的定位。

Rachel Dotson, content manager for ZipRecruiter.com, says, "All too often you hear about candidates leaving an interview and thinking they aced it, only to get a swift rejection email soon after. Take the time while you're face-to-face to ask about and dispel any doubts that the hiring manager has." Make sure a key asset of yours hasn't been overlooked.

ZipRecruiter招聘網(wǎng)的經(jīng)理雷切爾·多森也贊同這一建議，“面試結(jié)束后，很多求職者都自我感覺良好，覺得這個(gè)職位已經(jīng)是囊中之物，但不久后卻發(fā)現(xiàn)自己收到了公司的拒絕信。因此面試時(shí)求職者應(yīng)該當(dāng)面問清楚，打消招聘經(jīng)理的疑慮。”通過這一問題，我們也可以判斷自己是否已經(jīng)全面展示了自身所有的優(yōu)勢。

"As an Employee, How Could I Exceed Your Expectations?"

“作為一名員工，我怎樣才能超越公司對(duì)我的期望?”

Michael B. Junge, a staffing and recruiting industry leader with Irvine Technology Corp. in Santa Ana, Calif., and author of "Purple Squirrel: Stand Out, Land Interviews, and Master the Modern Job Market," says that one of his favorite interview questions is when a candidate takes the lead and asks, "If I were offered this position and joined your company, how would you measure my success and what could I do to exceed your expectations?"

邁克爾·朱安，美國加利福尼亞州圣安娜歐文科技股份有限公司的資深招聘經(jīng)理，也是《紫松鼠：從面試中脫穎而出，游刃于當(dāng)今就業(yè)市場》一書的作者。他最希望求職者在面試中會(huì)問到：“如果我有幸加入貴公司，請(qǐng)問您將如何衡量我的工作表現(xiàn)，我怎樣做才可以超越您的期望?”

"The question shows confidence without being overly brash, while also demonstrating that you have an interest in delivering positive results," Junge adds. What's more, the answer you receive can reveal what the interviewer hopes to accomplish by making a new hire, and this information can help you determine whether to accept the position if you get an offer.“

這個(gè)問題表明了求職者不卑不亢和積極向上的工作態(tài)度。”不僅如此，面試官的答案會(huì)告訴你公司對(duì)新員工的期望，也可以幫你決定是否接受這個(gè)工作機(jī)會(huì)。

"How Could I Help Your Company Meet Its Goals?"

“我能為貴公司做出什么貢獻(xiàn)?”

Dotson also suggests job candidates ask the interviewer, "How does this position fit in with the short- and long-term goals of the company?" The response to the short-term side of the question gives you further insight into your potential role and helps you tailor the remainder of the discussion and your interview follow-up, she says. "Second, by bringing up long-term goals, you are telling the hiring manager that you're there for the long-run, not just another new grad that is going to follow suit with her peers and job-hop every six months," Dotson says.

多森還建議應(yīng)聘者問面試官，“這個(gè)職位對(duì)公司的短期和長期發(fā)展目標(biāo)都有什么貢獻(xiàn)?”短期發(fā)展目標(biāo)可以讓你了解這個(gè)職位在公司運(yùn)營中的角色，從而為后面的談話定好基調(diào)。 “其次，在面試中提到長期發(fā)展目標(biāo)，其實(shí)就是在暗示招聘經(jīng)理你有在這家公司長久工作的計(jì)劃，不會(huì)像很多剛畢業(yè)的同齡人一樣頻繁跳槽。”

Junge also recommends that interviewees ask, "What challenges have other new hires faced when starting in similar roles, and what could I do to put myself in a better position to succeed?" He says few students or new grads will ask this question because most haven't witnessed failure. To a hiring manager, this question demonstrates maturity and awareness, and if you're hired, the answers can help you avoid the pitfalls of being new.

朱安還建議求職者向面試官提出這樣的問題，“相似崗位上的其他新員工都遇到了怎樣的挑戰(zhàn)，我怎樣才能做得更好?”他說，在校生或剛畢業(yè)的大學(xué)生幾乎都沒經(jīng)歷過失敗，所以很少會(huì)問這個(gè)問題。這個(gè)問題向招聘經(jīng)理展現(xiàn)了你的成熟，告訴面試官你已經(jīng)對(duì)工作中可能要面臨的問題有了一定的認(rèn)識(shí)。被錄用后，這個(gè)問題的答案也可以幫助你更好地適應(yīng)新環(huán)境，避免重蹈覆轍。

"What Excites You About Coming into Work?"

“是什么吸引您加入這家公司呢?”

Murshed Chowdhury, CEO of Infusive Solutions, a specialized staffing firm in New York City, suggests that candidates ask the interviewer, "What excites you about coming into work every day?"

穆爾希德·喬杜里，紐約市一家專業(yè)獵頭公司的CEO，他建議求職者問面試官，“是什么吸引您到這里工作呢?”

"This is a role reversal question that we often suggest candidates ask," he says. People love the opportunity to talk about themselves, so this question provides an excellent chance to learn about the hiring manager and find ways to establish common ground. "This is also a great opportunity for the candidate to determine whether he/she is excited by the same things that excite the hiring manager to see if the culture is a good fit," Chowdhury adds.

“這是一種換位思考。”，喬杜里認(rèn)為，人們總喜歡談?wù)摳约河嘘P(guān)的話題，因此這個(gè)問題可以幫助求職者加深對(duì)招聘經(jīng)理的了解，并找到共同點(diǎn)。“這個(gè)問題也可以幫助求職者判斷自己是否也會(huì)像招聘經(jīng)理一樣，喜歡上公司的文化”。

The Bottom Line

結(jié)語

Although it is important to provide a great first impression to a potential employer, as well as acing the basics of a job interview, closing the interview strong is just as important.

面試開始時(shí)給未來雇主留下良好的第一印象固然重要，善始善終也很重要。

"Prove to your interviewer that you want this position and you are in this for the right reasons, not simply to fill your day with something to do," Rose says. Ask these questions before you leave, and leave your potential new employer with a great impression.

向你的面試官證明你希望得到這個(gè)職位，你不是想混日子而是心懷抱負(fù)。面試結(jié)束前鼓起勇氣問問面試官這些問題，從而給他們留下深刻的印象。
