更有效地练习面试!
 

Bookmark and Share   

有很多著作教人怎样在面试中表现出色。其中多数建议都讲到了实践练习的好处。

然而,你知道练习的最佳方法吗?

错误的练习只会使事情最糟。

在正式面试中,回答得一成不变且非自身经历,这样的演习效果你不会想要。你不会想要只是针对特定问题进行练习,而当被问起其他没准备过的问题时,却答不出话来。你也不想练习坏的习惯。

以下是3条建议供你参考:

1. 练习面试过程。

刚毕业或仍在读书的你,很难有机会穿着正装得到充分演习。即便是在学校演说,大都是穿便装的。记住角色的穿着和角色的举止有着很大的分别。因此,在练习时穿上符合面试的着装,设定环境,使其与你可能所在的面试地点相似,是不可或缺的。如此说来,在家或宿舍以外的环境练习是重要的选择。重点就是让练习尽可能接近真正的面试环境和过程。

还有,摄录下你模拟面试的过程,看你在录像中的样子。你所看到的有可能令你惊讶。

2.    练习电话面试

经验告诉我,多数求职者的准备功夫非常不足。这不单单是指他们说话的内容和说话方式,还包括他们所处的环境。

身为雇主,我经常会先透过电话面试预选, 也当然会预约对方。面试当天,当我打电话给他们时,可以从他们背后报出的:“下一站,尖沙咀,请从右门下车...”, 猜到他们的所在地。

电话面试的处理方式和现场面试有所不同。电话面试不需要用肢体语言传递信息,因此,你得听得加倍仔细,去揣摩面试者之意。你的声音和说话方式是唯一的交流工具。为了使你的声音在电话那头听得清楚,你一定要会适当运用你的音量,语调和语速。

你也很有可能在一个舒适的环境下进行电话面试,甚至可以穿得非常随便。不过,这样做的风险在于你说话的语气可能变得过分随意。

练习电话面试的最佳方式是把答话录下来,过后检讨录音。现在的手机多数有录音功能,你也可以用有“录音机”功能的电脑麦克风来操作。

3. 同能帮助你的人练习

最近,一位学生在我们的一个面试练习中给了我一个让我大笑的回答。

他那回答是从他一位家人那儿学来的。后来我才发现这位家人远离就业市场有十年之久,对于工作面试的现状完全没有概念。

当你练习你的面试技巧时,得到可靠的建议尤为重要。在你接受建议之前,先仔细想想建议的来源。若是求职者,他们是否成功?是否跟你想进入的那行吻合?若是招聘人员/猎头公司,他们的议程是什么(请永远记住谁在支付猎头公司招聘费用- 那不是你)?若是培训人员,他们是否深入了解你,是否懂得怎样做才能让人受聘?

附加提示:务必参考常见的面试问题(Frequently-asked Questions),并确保你的回答有事先的准备。千万不要死背,但是你需要用一个想清楚了的思路回答他们。
