面試中的五個“失策”

We spend so much of our careers doing good work, meeting interesting people, and learning new skills. But it really all starts with one moment: the interview.

在人們的職業(yè)生涯中要花很多時間去做好工作、結(jié)識有趣的人和學(xué)習(xí)新技能。 但是這一切都是以“面試”開始的。

Once you get there, you need to be able to package everything together for a nice, neat presentation that's memorable in exactly the right way.

Here are five mistakes a lot of people make -- even people who are great at doing interviews:

下面是五個許多人們會犯的錯誤--其中不乏那些擅長面試的人們。

1. Not preparing for a phone interview

不為電話面試做準備

Most hiring managers screen candidates on the phone before they bring the candidate in for an interview. This is to make sure there aren't any glaring problems.

大部分負責招聘的人員在邀請面試前會通過電話進行預(yù)篩選來確保不會出現(xiàn)突出問題。

A phone interview saves time. If you can't get the answers to basic questions right on the phone, there's no point in interviewers watching you botch those questions in person. Also, the hiring manager is looking for you to make a mistake that would rule you out. For example, not knowing that you shouldn't take a call with a screaming baby in the background. So instead of thinking of the phone interview as a precursor to the real thing, think of it as something you can prepare for.

電話面試節(jié)約了時間。如果在電話里你都不能把一些基本問題講清除，那么就沒有當面讓你回答它們的必要。同樣，招聘人員還在挑你的毛病來把你剔除。例如，（你）不懂得不該在有孩子大吵大鬧的時候打電話。所以，你不要把電話面試當成是重頭戲的“插曲前奏”（因此不重視它），而應(yīng)該認為它是可以準備的東西。(to be continued)
