后记： 找工作还是得靠中介，他们毕竟是职业做这个的，消息灵通、与敌作战经验丰富，了解对方底线，能够帮助应聘者扬长避短，争取最大利益。比如俺这个工作，该公司网站上根本就没有个空缺职位，招的都是些Sales之类的工作。另外工资的争取与中介的努力是分不开的。 俺对英国市场行情不了解，除了自己能干什么之外，一无所知。没有中介，俺不可能这么快找到工作，最多也就是到炸鸡店parttime或者cleaner。这次从贴CV到正式拿到offer，不到两个礼拜，而俺和LP原来最乐观的预想也是3个月。 所以，首先得让自己通过中介这一关，把CV写好，让中介觉得值得去为之努力，他努力可比俺努力效率高多了。剩下的就全看自己的发挥了，运气成分比较大。 集中回答一下： 1、俺只在CV上写了“References available upon request”，并没有提供reference，另外从头到尾没有人问俺要过这个。 2、中介是从俺说的那三家网站上看到俺求职的，至于具体他说的是哪一家，俺想不起来了，只能说CWjob和monster的可能性比较大，因为印象中电话里好像没有人说起过reed。 3、那段短文如下： GIVING A GOOD JOB INTERVIEW You need to convince the interviewer that you are the best possible person for the job. Before you enter the interview room, you are just another name on the list. Make sure that by the time you come out, yours is the only name on it. Stay calm, think clearly and don’t let tricky questions and being under pressure put you off your stride. Preparation Make sure you know exactly where the interview will take place, and the name and position of the person you are due to meet. Work out your route in advance and allow a generous margin of error in case of unforeseen circumstances. Have the telephone number of the company handy so that you can let them know if you are running late as this is generally forgiven whereas unannounced lateness generally isn’t. Find out approximately how long the interview will take and arrange other appointments accordingly – don’t leave your car on a meter and end up worrying more about being clamped than getting the job. Research Where we can, we include company information to help you prepare for your interview and give you a better understanding of the company and the work it produces. However, you may find that digging a little deeper also boosts your confidence at the interview. Being even a little knowledgeable demonstrates to the interviewer that you have gone to the trouble to see whether you’d fit into the team and make a successful ‘career’ out of the ‘job’. Make sure you ask intelligent questions but not of the “how much holiday?” variety! Quiz yourself Time and again interviewers ask the same general questions in additions to those of a more technical nature. Common are “Why are you interested in this position” “Tell me about your current boss”. “What are the most satisfying/frustrating things about your current employment? “What are your strengths/where do you think your weaknesses lie?” Why do you think we should give you the job?” “Where do you see yourself in 5-10 years time?” Learn them, prepare your answers, practice on friends. Dress to impress People shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but they do, all the same. If you look untidy that’s how you’ll be remembered and first impressions really do count. Always wear a suit and tie or neat skirt/dress and polish your shoes. Even if you are attending a second interview and you know the organisation allows less formal work dress, maintain a professional/formal approach, as you don’t know who you may happen to meet, the Managing Director perhaps! It may sound obvious, but be civilised and remember your manners. Shake hands firmly with people you are are introduced to and when you leave. If you are offered a coffee say your pleases and thank yous, but keep it natural. Be unaggressively assertive Find the right tone in which to present your positive aspects. You have to talk about your achievements to show you are the right person, but do it without being boastful. Under no circumstances should you spend a significant portion of the interview running down your current employer – this is viewed as negative. Turn weaknesses into strengths Don’t pretend you haven’t got any weaknesses because everyone has some. On the other hand, don’t do yourself down, because you could be talking your way out of a job. Discuss your weaknesses as though you have recognised them and strive to overcome them. “I used to have bad time management so now I prioritise my workload first thing every morning.” “I like to take control and be involved in everything. I sometimes find it hard to delegate but when I have, the results have been positive”. If you lack technical strength in a particular area don’t try and ‘smokescreen’ but admit; “no, that isn’t my strongest suit, but I’m sure it’s not going to be a problem to pick up”. Have a positive attitude Above all, don’t wait until after the event to decide that you wish you’d tried harder to get the position. Always go in with the intention of getting an offer, only then do you really have the chance to weigh up how this opportunity compares with others. Many people, with the benefit of hindsight, have regretted they didn’t take a particular interview sufficiently seriously. Don’t let yourself be in this ‘if only’ category! Some worthwhile questions Finally, if you are given the chance to ask questions you should always take it. It’s best to ask questions that fit naturally into the context of the interview, and there is obviously no benefit in asking a previously prepared question if the subject matter has been adequately covered. It simply looks like you haven’t paid attention. However, if inspiration fails you here are some suggestions which should give you the right impression: What is logical progression within the position, where can I expect to be if my performance is good? What are the future plans for the company and department? What, in your opinion, are the major reasons why someone should join this company? |
