This article summarizes several difficult questions that will be asked in job interview for your reference. These questions are usually asked in interviews, but Chinese interviewees give unsatisfactory answers and miss jobs.
1. First, tell me about yourself. (introduce yourself)
This question should be the first question to be asked during the interview.
Whenever a job seeker is asked this question, he always begins to get nervous and begins to make a long speech. The verbose person starts from his primary school and continues to talk about it until he or she graduates from college to strive for a different performance of himself, so that the examiner can have a clear understanding of himself. It's five minutes.
This is simply wrong. It can't be wrong again. Here the examiner asked you to introduce yourself, in fact, not to tell you everything about yourself. The examiner is not a gossip weekly reporter. He is not so interested in your past. What he wants to know is your enthusiasm for applying for employment. And evaluate your suitability for the job from your introduction.
It's usually best to keep this opening within 2 minutes and then tell me about your background and then why you want to apply for the job, and what advantages and experience you have.
2. What is your long-term objective? (what are the long-term goals)
The main question is to ask what your goal is, give the examiner a clear idea of your goal in life, and explain how you can achieve it in the next five years.
For example:
Within the next five years, I would like to become the bestteam leader your company has ever hired. I want to work toward becoming theexpert in managing others.
Then I explained what I had done and what effort I had done to this management position.
3. What is the most difficult situation you have had to faceand how did you tackle it? (what is your biggest dilemma and how to overcome it)
This question seems simple, but in fact it is a dead question for the Chinese. Chinese are more clever, especially when looking for a job, before the interview is carefully prepared, all the questions are well thought out how to answer.
To make yourself stand out and make no mistakes, you usually choose a simpler or more common question, and then explain how you can overcome it.
Many experienced examiners can hear that the interviewee is a lie. Westerners are usually truthful, the questions raised and the ways to overcome them are strange and refreshing to the examiners.
The trap is that the examiner does not really want to know what kind of problem you have encountered, but to know what you are going to do about it, and how you can overcome it in order to judge your personality.
For example, a person encounters difficulties, whether to ask others for help, or to solve it himself; whether to solve the problem through continuous trying or logical thinking to judge.
Ask others to ask for help is better at teamwork, and their efforts to solve problems is more self-confident, personal ability. It is difficult to say which has an advantage, depending on the nature and scope of the job to be applied for.
This problem is best combined with the current job application, not to apply for the position of salemanager, but a financemanager problem.
4. What are your strengths? (own strengths)
You can usually draw up a list of your strengths, select three or four at the time of the interview, and then describe your strengths in the light of the job you are interviewing, and the probationary examiner may ask you to give an example, preferably prepared.
5. What is your greatest weakness? (what's your biggest weakness?)
"one's greatest weakness is that it is all good." this joke is best not to say, never say that you have no shortcomings.
Although the foreigners are not very modest, but if you say so, the examiner will feel that you are too arrogant and proud, and have a negative impact.
Like: Well, I'm such a hard worker. Sometimes I really work toohard. I should probably spend more time with my family, because all I do iswork. Did I mention I work hard? Hmmm. That's because all I do is work,work, work.
There are usually two good answers to this question. The first is that you can say that you have no experience in certain jobs. Don't say that you are incompetent.
For example,: I know the people from my team think I'm too demanding. Isometimes tend to drive them pretty hard but I've started reading on thesubject sometime ago and I'm getting much better at managing them by settingobjectives.
6. Why do you want to leave your current employer? Why quit your last job?
No matter what reason you quit your job, don't slander a company when applying for a new job. Don't say it's because the previous company's salary is low.
7. Why have you applied for this particular job? (reasons for applying for the job)
Employers ask this question to know if you are fit for a job, so don't say too many personal reasons, such as close to home.
8. How has your education prepared you for your career? (how does your study career help your job?)
This broader question usually requires interviewees to illustrate how their educational background can help the job.
For example, technical work, you need to give examples of what certificates you have, or the successful production of what products, or projects.
9.What experience do you have in this field? (what kind of experience do you have in this job?)
Never say you don't have any experience. People don't want to train a new person from scratch.
If you really don't have any experience with this job, try to get closer to a similar job, life, or your skills.
Try to find common ground in your last job and tell the examiner how to adjust yourself.
Like: I've never worked in cosmetics before, but in my previousjob I've learned a lot about sales and marketing and I'm confident I'll bequick to learn the ropes of your industry very quickly.
10. What kind of salary do you need? (wages)
As soon as the question is asked, many candidates will lie down with guns. Unless you've done a detailed survey before, it's hard to guess the company's ideal salary.
Some people ask, this salary is not written in the recruitment notice is not clear? In some key positions, recruitment companies do not write down the exact amount of the salary, all of which are negotiated face to face by interviewees.
There is also a recruitment notice with only one salary range, so that employers can stand in a reasonable position to look at candidates.
Like: I've asked around and I know that a marketing manager doinga similar job in Adelaide earns about $4500 a month.. Given that my job wouldalso require organising three training seminars a month, I'd expect my salaryto range between $4000 and $5,000.
