Before you say “thanks” and walk out the door, don’t miss a last chance to show your stuff and gather useful intel.
走出門(mén)時(shí)一定不要忘記最后展示一次你的才能、收集有用信息。
?
If you’re looking for an entry-level job, it can sometimes feel like you’re speeding through the interview process screaming, “Pick me! Pick me!” while trying to play it cool. You might focus so much on answering the interviewer’s questions in a way that demonstrates you’re the right person for the job that you forget to ask them smart questions, too.
如果你正在尋找一個(gè)入門(mén)級(jí)的工作,有時(shí)候會(huì)覺(jué)得整個(gè)面試過(guò)程中心里都在喊 “挑我! 選我!”,但表面仍要裝作淡定。你可能會(huì)把注意力集中在回答面試官的問(wèn)題上,以這種方式證明你是這個(gè)工作的合適人選,這時(shí)候你經(jīng)常忘記對(duì)他們發(fā)問(wèn)。
?
In reality, that final stage of the interview can be the part where you seal the deal. You should put just as much effort into asking questions that show you’re ready to jump right in and allow you to gauge whether the role is a good fit for you in the first place. Don’t let this opportunity go to waste. Here’s what hiring managers and recruiters say are three of the most powerful questions that too few entry-level hires remember to ask.
事實(shí)上,面試的最后階段可能是你簽署協(xié)議、決定加入公司。 你應(yīng)該盡可能多地提出問(wèn)題,表明你已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備好了,并且讓你能夠首先判斷這個(gè)職位是否適合你。不要浪費(fèi)這個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)。 以下是招聘經(jīng)理和招聘人員所說(shuō)的三個(gè)初級(jí)面試者最容易疏忽的問(wèn)題。
?
1. “WHAT DOES SUCCESS LOOK LIKE FOR ENTRY-LEVEL HIRES AT THE COMPANY?”
“在公司里,對(duì)于初級(jí)職員來(lái)說(shuō)什么才算成功?”
It’s better to know even before day one what it would take to succeed in your position. Heidi Solti-Berner, evolving workforce talent leader at Deloitte, recommends this question because it gives the hiring manager a chance to spell out the qualities of junior-level high performers in the organization.
職員們應(yīng)該在上班第一天之前就知道如何才能取得成功。德勤員工人才領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者Heidi Solti-Berner推薦了這個(gè)問(wèn)題,因?yàn)檫@給了招聘經(jīng)理一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)來(lái)闡明優(yōu)秀職員應(yīng)具有的素質(zhì)。
?
?“Once you have a clearer picture of this,” she says, “you can better demonstrate how those identified qualities are aligned with your work ethic, professional goals, and overall personality.” If there’s anything about yourself that you didn’t get a chance to share earlier, you can follow up on the interviewer’s response by explaining how you already possess some of the qualities and skills they’ve just mentioned.
她說(shuō):“一旦你對(duì)這個(gè)問(wèn)題有了更清晰的了解,你就可以更好地展示這些特定的品質(zhì)是如何與你的職業(yè)道德、職業(yè)目標(biāo)和整體個(gè)性相一致的。”如果之前你漏掉了一些自我介紹,這個(gè)時(shí)候也可以借機(jī)闡述你具備他們提到的一些素質(zhì)和技能。
?
Plus, if you do get the offer and wind up taking it, you’ll start off with insider knowledge about how to thrive in your position. At any rate, recruiters are likely to be impressed simply by the fact that you asked this question, since it shows that your main priority is to start delivering results right away.
另外,如果你得到了這份工作,就要開(kāi)始了解如何做好這份工作。一般來(lái)說(shuō),如果你問(wèn)了相關(guān)問(wèn)題,招聘人員就會(huì)對(duì)你印象深刻,因?yàn)檫@表明你想要馬上開(kāi)始努力并取得成果。
2. “HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE TEAM AND MANAGER I’D BE WORKING WITH?”
“你如何描述我即將加入的團(tuán)隊(duì)和經(jīng)理?
Yes, getting a job is important, but it’s even more important to work at a company where you’re supported by a boss and colleagues who are proactive about helping you grow–especially when you’re coming in at the entry level. Chelsea Kovak, a recruiter at the business-loan platform Fundera, explains that “nothing has a bigger impact on your ability to develop and grow in a role than the amount of mentoring and focus you can get from your manager.”
是的,找一份工作很重要,但更重要的是在公司里得到上司和同事的支持,他們能否幫助您成長(zhǎng)是很關(guān)鍵的—特別是當(dāng)你還是職場(chǎng)菜鳥(niǎo)時(shí)。商業(yè)貸款平臺(tái)Fundera的招聘人員Chelsea Kovak解釋說(shuō):“要想在一份工作上成長(zhǎng)和發(fā)展,沒(méi)有什么比從經(jīng)理那里得到的指導(dǎo)和關(guān)注更重要。”
?
But Kovak also points out that this question helps you understand the work culture, since it “gives a sense of the way the team will work together and can really prepare you for the culture of the company you’ve signed up for.” If the hiring manager shares even a few background details of the team’s dynamics, they can be pretty telling–and hopefully help you decide whether it’s the right environment for you.
但Kovak也指出,這個(gè)問(wèn)題可以幫助你理解公司文化,因?yàn)樗白屇懔私鈭F(tuán)隊(duì)合作的方式,并且真正幫助你了解未來(lái)公司的文化?!比绻衅附?jīng)理可以分享團(tuán)隊(duì)動(dòng)態(tài)的一些細(xì)節(jié),那么這些將會(huì)是非常有用的參考,可以幫助你判斷這里的環(huán)境是否適合你。
?
For instance, does the interviewer mention that the team is collaborative and works on several projects together? Or, does your team only consist of you and your manager? Is it a growing team that’s looking to add new hires over the next six months? This is all useful information when you’re sizing up a role. But what’s more, asking this question gives you one last chance to show the interviewer that if you’re offered the position, you’ll be able to fit right in with the team.
例如,面試官是否提到團(tuán)隊(duì)是不是合作的,并且共同參與多個(gè)項(xiàng)目? 或者,你的團(tuán)隊(duì)是只包括你和你的經(jīng)理嗎? 這是不是一個(gè)正在成長(zhǎng)的團(tuán)隊(duì),希望在未來(lái)六個(gè)月內(nèi)增加新員工? 這些都是是有用的信息。但是更重要的是,詢(xún)問(wèn)這個(gè)問(wèn)題給了你最后一次機(jī)會(huì)讓你向面試官展示,若得到工作機(jī)會(huì),你將會(huì)與團(tuán)隊(duì)配合地很好。

3. “IF OFFERED THE JOB, WHAT WOULD YOU RECOMMEND I DO TO GET OFF TO A GREAT START?”
“如果我得到這份工作,為了有一個(gè)良好的開(kāi)端,您是否能給我一些建議?”
While the first question focuses on your long-term success, this last one gives you intel on what it would take to stand out immediately. And according to Jeremy Payne, VP and head of operations at Remote Year, says that asking this question helps the interviewer visualize you in the role.
第一個(gè)問(wèn)題關(guān)注你的長(zhǎng)期發(fā)展,最后一個(gè)問(wèn)題讓你知道如何立即脫穎而出。根據(jù)Remote Year的副總裁兼運(yùn)營(yíng)主管Jeremy Payne的說(shuō)法,問(wèn)這個(gè)問(wèn)題有助于面試官對(duì)你印象深刻。
?
So in addition to getting yet another chance to reassure the interviewer why you’re up for the challenges ahead of you, Payne adds that it’s also a useful data-gathering opportunity: “It allows you to determine where you would need development and provides you with advice toward that development–all in one response.” And best of all, since the hiring manager is thinking about what you in particular would need to start off on the right foot, the suggestions you’ll hear will be tailored to your skills and credentials.
Payne補(bǔ)充說(shuō),問(wèn)這個(gè)問(wèn)題除了有機(jī)會(huì)再次向面試官展示你已經(jīng)做好準(zhǔn)備迎接挑戰(zhàn)外,這還可以幫助你搜集數(shù)據(jù):“通過(guò)這個(gè)問(wèn)題的答案,求職者可以判斷自己在哪方面需要改進(jìn),并且給你未來(lái)發(fā)展提出建議?!弊钪匾氖?,由于招聘經(jīng)理正在考慮你需要開(kāi)始做些什么,所以這時(shí)候你得到的回答就是為你量身定做的建議。
?
Adding these three questions to your mental lineup while you’re prepping for interviews can help you wrap up your conversation on a high note. They let you show the interviewer that success and culture are both equally important to you, all while letting you suss out whether the team, position, and expectations fit with your personal career goals.
在準(zhǔn)備面試的時(shí)候,把這三個(gè)問(wèn)題添加到你的面試過(guò)程中,可以幫助你很好地完成面試。這些問(wèn)題讓你向面試官表明,企業(yè)文化和成功對(duì)你來(lái)說(shuō)都很重要,同時(shí)讓你了解公司的團(tuán)隊(duì)、職位和期望是否符合你個(gè)人的職業(yè)目標(biāo)。?
