面试时求职者最适合问的6种问题

Anne Fisher 2012年03月26日

Anne Fisher为《财富》杂志《向Anne提问》的专栏作者,这个职场专栏始于1996年,帮助读者适应经济的兴衰起落、行业转换,以及工作中面临的各种困惑。
一位企业高管教练认为,如果想从激烈的竞争中脱颖而出,求职者必须跟面试官展开诚恳的、令人印象深刻的对话。本文为您介绍六类面试黄金提问,助您打开局面,锁定胜局。

    4、关注未来。此类问题比如“贵公司的生产力在过去三年中获得了很可观的改善。您认为未来在业务运作层面还有哪些地方具有提升的空间?”,“未来几年,有哪些潜在的增长领域最让公司上下兴奋和期待?”显然,通过招聘者对这些问题的回答,你也能了解到如果应聘成功,你今后的职业生涯将如何发展。

    5、了解企业文化。索贝尔表示,通过提问能了解到这家公司的工作氛围。你可以问“导致新员工表现不佳的最普遍原因是什么?”或者反之,“什么样的人能在贵公司取得成功?”以及一些类似的问题,比如“为什么人们来这里工作,而不是去竞争对手的公司?您认为他们留在这里的原因是什么?”这些问题都能够引出一些很有价值的见解。

    6、面试官的选择标准是什么?索贝尔表示,你应该问“如果把选择范围缩小到最后的两名求职者,他们具有同等经验和技能,您最终会如何选择?”虽然招聘者给你的回答可能不那么直接(真相可能是薪资要求较低的求职者胜出),但仍然能获得一些有价值的信息。

    索贝尔认为,合适的问题“能够让你展示自己的学识而又不显得妄自尊大,能够让你的胜算大大提高。这样,你很有可能会听到对你来说最动听的提问:‘你最快什么时候能上班?’”

    反馈:你在上一次求职面试中问了什么问题?如果你是招聘经理,求职者的什么问题会让你印象最深刻(或者最平淡)?欢迎留言评论。

    4. Focus on the future. Ask something like, "You've achieved large productivity gains in the past three years. Where do you believe future operational improvements will come from?" or "Looking ahead to the next couple of years, what are the potential growth areas that people in the company are most excited about?" Not incidentally, the answers could give you a sense of where your own career path could lead if you get hired.

    5. Find out about the culture. You can learn a lot about what it would be like to work at a company, Sobel says, by asking, "What are the most common reasons why new hires don't work out here?" or, conversely, "What kinds of people really thrive in your organization?" Along similar lines, "Why do people come to work for you rather than a competitor, and why do you think they stay?" could yield some valuable insights.

    6. What are the interviewer's selection criteria? Sobel says you should ask, "If you were to narrow the field to two final candidates for this job, with equal experience and skills, how would you choose one over the other?" You may not get a totally candid answer (the truth might be, for example, that the candidate with the lower salary requirement would win out), but you still might learn something worth knowing.

    The right questions, Sobel says, "allow you to demonstrate your knowledge without sounding arrogant, and they greatly improve your chances of hearing the best question of all -- 'How soon can you start?'"

    Talkback: What questions did you ask in your last job interview? If you're a hiring manager, which questions from candidates impress you most (or least)? Leave a comment below.
