    Below is a quick quiz to test your interview savvy. Read through the following true-or-false statements to assess your Interview IQ.

    下麵是一個快速測試來檢驗你的麵試領悟力。通過選出對還是錯來測試一下你的麵試IQ吧。

    1. If I prepare too much for an interview I will seem desperate. （True/False?）

    1.如果我準備太多會顯得我太渴望這份工作了。（對/錯
？）

    False.There is nothing worse than an unprepared interviewee. Make sure you have done your homework about the organization and the job skills required before the interview. This will help when you're asked, "Why do you want to work here?" Plus, you can ask knowledgeable questions when your turn comes around.

    錯誤。沒有比毫無準備的接受麵試更糟糕的事情了。在麵試前要確保你做好關於公司以及工作需要的"作業".當你被問到"你為什麼想在這裏工作？"的時候這些會有幫助的。此外，輪到你提問的時候你也能問出一些有見地的問題。

    2. Before the interview, put yourself in the interviewer's shoes to see things from their perspective.

    2.在麵試前，設身處地的從麵試官的角度去看問題。

    True. Typically, interviewers are busy and easily distracted.Remember that you may be one of 10 people that they have talked to in the last five hours. Don't make them struggle to get answers out of youor make sense of your rambling replies.

    正(zheng)確(que)。麵(mian)試(shi)官(guan)通(tong)常(chang)都(dou)很(hen)忙(mang)，很(hen)容(rong)易(yi)心(xin)煩(fan)。要(yao)記(ji)住(zhu)你(ni)可(ke)能(neng)是(shi)他(ta)們(men)在(zai)過(guo)去(qu)五(wu)小(xiao)時(shi)內(nei)和(he)他(ta)們(men)談(tan)過(guo)話(hua)的(de)十(shi)個(ge)人(ren)之(zhi)一(yi)。別(bie)讓(rang)他(ta)們(men)絞(jiao)盡(jin)腦(nao)汁(zhi)才(cai)能(neng)明(ming)白(bai)你(ni)的(de)答(da)案(an)或(huo)者(zhe)理(li)解(jie)你(ni)散(san)漫(man)的(de)回(hui)答(da)。

    3. Role-playing to prepare for typical interview questions is really important.

    準備常規性麵試做個角色扮演的準備是非常重要的。

    True. Practicing your responses to typical interview questions is paramount. Role-play with a friend and get feedback on how you come across. For example, if you say that you are really excited about the job but sound hesitant, you will not seem credible.

    正(zheng)確(que)。練(lian)習(xi)回(hui)答(da)一(yi)些(xie)常(chang)規(gui)性(xing)的(de)麵(mian)試(shi)問(wen)題(ti)是(shi)非(fei)常(chang)重(zhong)要(yao)的(de)。和(he)一(yi)位(wei)朋(peng)友(you)做(zuo)些(xie)角(jiao)色(se)扮(ban)演(yan)吧(ba)

，你(ni)能(neng)得(de)到(dao)一(yi)些(xie)反(fan)饋(kui)怎(zen)麼(me)能(neng)得(de)到(dao)更(geng)好(hao)的(de)效(xiao)果(guo)。比(bi)如(ru)你(ni)說(shuo)你(ni)真(zhen)的(de)為(wei)這(zhe)份(fen)工(gong)作(zuo)感(gan)到(dao)非(fei)常(chang)興(xing)奮(fen)但(dan)是(shi)口(kou)氣(qi)很(hen)猶(you)豫(yu)的(de)話(hua)

，你(ni)看(kan)上(shang)去(qu)就(jiu)不(bu)太(tai)可(ke)信(xin)。

    4. If you have reservations about your abilities or skills for the position you should tell the whole truth.

    4.麵試某一職位，如果你對自己的能力或技巧有所保留你應該將真相和盤托出。

    True/False. You should not tell a lie and say you have five years of experience when you really have two. Nor should you fully disclose your inadequacies. If you left your last  job because you were fired, there's no need to bring that up.When the employer asks you about your biggest mistake, pick a less emotionally charged experience and emphasize what you learned from it.

    5. A job interview is a one-direction conversation, like on a talk show.

    5.工作麵試是單向的談話

，像脫口秀一樣。

    False. Having a one-sided interview can be exhausting for both parties. Make sure to prepare at least 10 engaging and relevant

    questions to ask. Even better, have some questions about their favoritesubject - themselves. An example is, "Tell me about your job and whatyou love about it?"

    錯誤。單向談話會讓雙方都感到精疲力盡。提前準備好十個有質量和工作相關性強的問題。最好是能問到他們最喜歡的話題。比如說，"跟我說說你的工作和你喜歡這份工作什麼地方吧。"

    6. Interviewers are like dogs; they can smell my fear.

    6.麵試官像狗一樣能很靈敏的嗅到我的恐懼。

    True. Interviewing is the quintessential example of dogs sniffing each other out. Like a dog, the interviewer will be trying to determine your overall

    confidence. Your body language indicates your level of self-esteem.Remember, a shaking leg or deer-in-headlights expression can mattermore than how well you answer the questions.

    正zheng確que。麵mian試shi最zui令ling人ren叫jiao絕jue的de比bi喻yu就jiu是shi狗gou如ru何he嗅xiu出chu他ta們men的de同tong類lei。像xiang一yi隻zhi狗gou一yi樣yang

    7. The "real me" will shine through whether I'm dressed in pajamas or a suit.

    7.不管我穿的是睡衣還是套裝
，是金子總會發光。

    False.Whether we like it or not, what we wear helps form a first impression.Before the interview, see if you can get some insider information onthe dress code and whether it is more casual or formal. If you don't know, opt  for formal. For women, remember it's about getting a job, nota date. Stay away from low cut or short anything.

    錯cuo誤wu。不bu管guan我wo們men是shi否fou喜xi歡huan，我wo們men穿chuan什shen麼me的de確que有you助zhu於yu形xing成cheng第di一yi印yin象xiang。在zai麵mian試shi前qian

    8. Sending a thank you note is an important way of standing out.

    8.發一個感謝的字條是脫穎而出的重要方法。

    True. Thank you notes are not only about good etiquette but self-marketing, too. How can a simple card help you seal the deal?Start by mentioning something you learned about your interviewer. Youcould say, "I really enjoyed our conversation about your first years at Boeing." Then, write a quick summary of the conversation and why youare perfect for the job.

    正(zheng)確(que)。感(gan)謝(xie)字(zi)條(tiao)不(bu)僅(jin)僅(jin)是(shi)一(yi)種(zhong)禮(li)貌(mao)也(ye)是(shi)一(yi)種(zhong)自(zi)我(wo)營(ying)銷(xiao)。一(yi)張(zhang)簡(jian)單(dan)的(de)卡(ka)片(pian)怎(zen)麼(me)能(neng)幫(bang)你(ni)搞(gao)定(ding)呢(ne)？以(yi)寫(xie)下(xia)你(ni)從(cong)麵(mian)試(shi)官(guan)那(na)裏(li)學(xue)到(dao)什(shen)麼(me)開(kai)始(shi)吧(ba)。你(ni)可(ke)以(yi)說(shuo)，"很高興能和你聊到你在波音公司的那些日子。"然後
，寫一個談話的快速摘要以及為什麼你非常適合這份工作。

    9. Making demands for your ideal salary and vacation in the initial interview is a risky proposition.

    9.在最初的麵試中提出你對理想的薪水和休假的要求是個冒險的主意。

    True. While you are aching to know the starting salary and benefits right off the bat, it's a bit risky to ask these types of questions initially. Reserve negotiations on these matters until you have a job offer.

    正確。即使你渴望馬上知道工作的底薪和福利，在最初的麵試中問這類的問題也有點冒險。把這些問題留到你拿到工作的offer時再協商吧。

    10. It doesn't matter if I'm five minutes late. Everyone runs late to interviews.

    10.我遲到五分鍾沒關係。每個人麵試都可能遲到。

    False.It's OK for your interviewer to be late, but the interviewee needs tobe on time or 5-10 minutes early. Even if you have a good reason forbeing late, the interviewer will make assumptions about your level of organization and how you treat others. Plus, getting there early gives you time to compose yourself and shake off your coffee jitters.

    錯誤。你的麵試官遲到無所謂，但是你需要準時或者提前5-10分fen鍾zhong。即ji使shi你ni有you一yi個ge遲chi到dao的de好hao理li由you，麵mian試shi官guan也ye會hui對dui你ni的de組zu織zhi紀ji律lv和he你ni對dui待dai其qi他ta人ren的de方fang式shi做zuo出chu一yi些xie假jia設she。除chu此ci之zhi外wai，提ti前qian到dao也ye會hui給gei你ni時shi間jian鎮zhen定ding自zi己ji擺bai脫tuo咖ka啡fei帶dai來lai的de神shen經jing過guo敏min。
