伴随着春季的正式開始,除了回暖的天氣,如今還一個更為重要的時機:在職場中,一個有個“金三銀四”的說法。講的是招聘求職高峰時間段,很多人都會選擇在這個時期尋找更好的發展機會。
說到求職,其中一個很重要的環節,那就是面試。一場面試下來,着裝、言談、舉止等各個方面,都可能成為你通過與否的決定性因素。
所以,如何避免因為這些細節導緻面試失敗就很重要啦。下面是一些不禮貌的言談表達,在面試中千萬不要使用。

01、關于遲到 1)對方遲到,不要這樣說:
'I've been waiting a while'
“我已經等了半天了。”
You are totally justified in being annoyed that your interviewer kept you waiting. That being said, you get no brownie points for grumbling.
當面試官讓你久等時,你是完全有理由生氣的。但話雖如此,抱怨是不會為你加分的。

2)你遲到時,也别這麼說:
'Hi! I know I'm late but...'
“嗨!我知道我遲到了,但......”
Yes, it's a double standard that the interviewee can't be late while the interviewer can get away with it.
是的,在面試官與求職者之間存在着雙重标準:面試官可以遲到,但求職者不可以。
If you are late, don't draw attention to it or make excuses. Quickly apologize and move on.
如果你遲到了,也不要過分關注這件事或者找借口解釋。立即向面試官道個歉,讓面試繼續進行就好了。

02、關于提問 1)不要問面試官一些私人問題,比如:
'Are you married?/Do you have kids?/How old are you?/etc.'
“你結婚了嗎?有孩子了嗎?你多大了?”等等
Keep things professional. Never ask the interviewer any personal questions — or anything that could be offensive.
在面試中要表現出專業性。永遠不要問面試官一些私人問題---或者任何帶有冒犯性的問題。
You'll come across as prying, and potentially a bit creepy.
因為這樣你會給面試官留下愛打聽别人隐私的印象,可能會讓面試官抵觸。

2)不要詢問和“辦公室政治”相關的問題,如:
'Who should I avoid in the office?'
“在辦公室裡我應避免和誰起沖突?”
Don't embroil yourself in coworker drama before you've even stepped foot into the office. This just makes you sound like a petty person.
在踏入辦公室之前,不要将自己卷入辦公室沖突中。這會讓你聽起來像是一個心胸狹隘的人。
Don't indicate to the hiring manager that you're going to cause trouble in the office down the line.
不要讓面試官覺得你以後會給辦公室的同事關系帶來麻煩。

03、關于說話 1)不要說粗鄙的話,如:
'S---,' 'b----,' 'f---,' etc.
辱罵性的話語
Curse words will make you sound rude, vulgar, and unprofessional.
髒話會使你聽起來很粗魯、粗俗并且不專業。

2)有電話時不要這麼說:
'Excuse me, I need to take this call really quickly'
“不好意思,我需要先接個電話。”
It's better to just avoid this pitfall by silencing your phone, Jennifer Parris writes for FlexJobs.
珍妮弗•帕裡斯為求職網站FlexJobs寫道,為了避免此類面試隐患出現,最好是把手機調成靜音。

3)控制自己的熱情,避免這種表達:
'I just need a job'
“我需要這份工作。”
Seriously, contain your enthusiasm. This may be true, but definitely don't admit it to your interviewer.
說真的,你需要控制住自己的熱情。你的熱情可能是真的,但絕對不要向面試官承認這一點。

4)這樣的表達也會減分:
'Sorry — I've got to run!'
“抱歉,我得走了。”
Try to keep your schedule relatively uncluttered on the day of the interview.
在面試那天一定要保持一個比較有序的日程安排。
But unless you've hit rock bottom in the interview, or the interviewer is some sort of psychopath, it's probably best to just wait it out.
但除非你在面試中實在表現很差或者面試官有些神經質,否則最好靜候面試結束。

5)對對方不要随意發表觀點:
'The office isn't what I thought it would be'
“這處辦公室跟我想象的不一樣。”
You're here as a job candidate, not as a super-critical interior decorator. Don't imply that you're disappointed or underwhelmed.
你是一位求職者,不是吹毛求疵的室内裝潢設計師。不要表現出你的失望和乏味的情緒。

6)不要随意稱呼對方:
'Dude/honey/girls/ladies/man/guys'
“夥計、親愛的、姑娘、女士、兄弟、朋友”
This one's a toss-up. Some people are totally cool with being called things like "guys" or "ladies." Others get really irked. It's probably better to err on the side of caution here, lest you come off as belittling or disrespectful.
稱呼是很難說清的。一些人不介意被叫做“朋友”或是“女士”。但另一些就會生氣。因此最好小心為妙,以免給人留下輕視他人或者不尊重他人的印象。
Err on the side of formality.
為穩妥起見,還是正式一點為好。

7)不要随意評價對方公司的做事方式,千萬不要說:
'That's not how I'm used to doing it'
“我不習慣這樣做。”
If you start talking about the nitty gritty details of your new job, make sure to avoid coming across like you think you know better than anyone else. Criticizing the company's way of doing this is a surefire way to alienate your interviewer.
如果你開始與面試官談論新工作的細節,那麼一定要避免給人留下你覺得自己比任何人都懂的印象。批評公司的做事方式一定會讓面試官疏遠你。
