揭秘：八大你不得不知的面试问题

What is one of your flaws?
说说你的一个缺点吧

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•格里芬说，这个问题经常被当作一个笑话，或变负面为正面的方式，比如回答我太完美了、我是个高成就者、我从不半途而废。

'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.
“告诉你我喜欢什么，我喜欢聘用人类而不是机器。我喜欢聘用直率、诚实、喜欢以本来面目示人的人。每个人都有缺点，我又不是三岁小孩，骗不了我的。”

'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.
“要向我展示你是一个能意识到自己缺点的诚实的人。也许你讨厌起床，也许你说话声音太轻，也许你任由打印机上的纸堆成堆。”

'When people recognise a flaw it shows a hunger for improvement and that is always desirable.'
“如果一个人能意识到自己的缺点，说明他渴望改进，这才是我们想要的。”

Describe how an apple tastes to someone who can't taste.
怎么向没有味觉的人描述苹果的味道？

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.
这个问题的答案没有对错，只是考察你是否有能力进行批判性思考。好好想一想你该怎么回答。

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.'
回答这个问题的一种方式是：“我会用‘鲜美’一词来描述苹果，因为它们美味多汁。尽管可能有的人没有味觉，但当他们咬上一口，就会感受到那丰盈的果汁。我一想到苹果，就会联想到我第一口咬上去时那新鲜多汁的感觉。”

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.
尽管你的答案与其他面试者的答案不一样，但它展示了你独立思考的能力。只要你能解释出为什么选择这样的描述，无论你的答案是什么，你的面试官都会欣赏的。

Do you have any questions?
你还有什么问题吗？

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.
你可以借此机会来确定这个公司是否适合你，但是面试官也会通过这个问题来发现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.
你要提前准备许多问题，因为大多数问题很有可能在面试过程中得到解答。当给你机会提问时，至少要有一个问题可以问，这十分重要。

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?
这里给你一些建议：在这份工作中，干得好和干得出色有什么分别？公司内部有培训和职业发展的机会吗？你最喜欢公司、企业文化和你自己工作中的哪一点？
