面對不同的面試官,該問的問題也不同。下面是一些針對執行官和未來同事的問題。
The Executive: The Industry Expert
執行官:業內專家
Senior managers and executives are likely to be most knowledgeable about the latest happenings in their industry. If you'll be working closely with an executive, you can ask them some specifics about the job. But you should focus most of your questions on the future of the company and the industry. This is your chance to show off your industry knowledge!
資深經理和執行官們可能最了解當前行業的最新動態。如果你將密切地和一位執行官工作,你可以問問這他們關于工作的細節。但是你的大多數問題都應該集中在公司及行業的未來方面。這可是你“炫耀”行業知識的一個機會!
Some questions to ask a senior manager or executive:
適合問資深經理或執行官的問題有:
* How do you think this industry will change in the next five years? 你認為這個行業在未來五年后將發生什么變化?
* What do you think gives this company an edge over its competitors? 你認為這家公司和競爭者相比優勢在哪兒?
* What's the company's biggest challenge? How is it planning to meet that challenge? 公司面臨最大的挑戰是什么?計劃如何應對?
The Coworker: The Straight-Talker
同事:直率的同行
Some interviews will also include a meeting with a potential coworker -- the interviewer most likely to "tell it how it is." A potential colleague may be most candid about the job, its challenges and the work environment. However, don't expect inside information -- and certainly don't ask for it.
有些面試還會邀請未來可能成為同事的人參加。未來的同事最可能是“照實說”的人。未來可能成為的同事對工作、工作中的挑戰及工作環境是最坦白的。不過,你不要指望獲得“內部”消息——當然更不要去問。
Some questions to ask a potential coworker:
適合問有可能成為同事的人問題有:
* What's a typical day like in the department? 這個部門平時一天的工作是怎樣進行的?
* How would you describe the work environment at the company? 你認為公司的工作環境怎樣?
* What's the most enjoyable part of your job? What's the most challenging part? 你工作中最開心的部分是什么?最具挑戰性的是什么?
