面試英語(yǔ)：HR告訴你怎樣從700萬(wàn)畢業(yè)大軍中突出重圍？

　　Many of you will be graduating from college soon, and haven't gotten a job offer yet. Each of the companies you'd like to work for is interviewing a lot of people. How to stand out? What do employers really want?

　　很多人很快就要大學(xué)畢業(yè)了，也許你還沒(méi)有找到一份工作。你理想中的公司面試了很多人。你如何脫穎而出?雇主需要的到底是什么?

　　Although your 3.8 GPA is impressive, it isn't as important to employers as you might suppose. "One thing we look for is a strong work ethic," says Alexa Hamill, who is in charge of campus recruiting at PwC.

　　平均績(jī)點(diǎn)3.8確實(shí)很了不起，但對(duì)于雇主而言那并沒(méi)有你想象得那么重要。“我們看重的是一種強(qiáng)烈的職業(yè)感。”普華永道會(huì)計(jì)事務(wù)所負(fù)責(zé)校園招聘的亞歷克莎-哈米爾說(shuō)。

　　A few other suggestions on how to wow interviewers:

　　如何打動(dòng)面試官?下面是幾點(diǎn)建議：

　　1.Be persistent. "Job hunters who want an edge over other candidates today need to engage employers in multiple ways," says Dylan Schweitzer, Northeast head of talent acquisition for Enterprise Rent-a-Car. "We've had applicants meet us at a job fair, then connect with us on LinkedIn, call our offices, and send us emails." That may sound pesky, but Schweitzer says not: "The people who make a serious effort to get my attention show me they're willing to go the extra mile to accomplish tasks."

　　1.堅(jiān)持不懈。企業(yè)租車(chē)公司東北地區(qū)負(fù)責(zé)人迪倫·施維澤說(shuō)：“求職者想要戰(zhàn)勝競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手，就必須通過(guò)各種手段來(lái)吸引雇主。有的求職者在招聘會(huì)上見(jiàn)過(guò)我們之后，會(huì)通過(guò)商務(wù)社交網(wǎng)站LinkedIn聯(lián)系我們，打我們辦公室的電話，還給我們發(fā)電子郵件。”這聽(tīng)上去也許感覺(jué)令人生厭，但施維澤認(rèn)為：“那些愿意通過(guò)各種努力來(lái)吸引我注意的人，讓我相信他們也會(huì)愿意為了完成任務(wù)而加倍努力。”

　　2.Remember, it's not all about you. Schweitzer says that, when an interviewer asks why you want to work for Acme Corp., "the proper response is, 'I'm a hard-working person with experience in fill in the blank, and here is what I want to contribute.'" Too often, he says, applicants' responses are "all about them, when it needs to be more about their connection to my organization. Tell us what you bring to the table, not just what you want."

　　2.切忌只談自己。施維澤表示，當(dāng)面試官問(wèn)起為什么希望來(lái)Acme公司工作時(shí)，“恰當(dāng)?shù)拇鸢甘?，我工作非常努力，在____方面擁有豐富的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，我能在這方面為公司作出貢獻(xiàn)。”但他說(shuō)，自己經(jīng)常遇到的情況是，“求職者大都對(duì)自己大談特談，實(shí)際上更應(yīng)該談?wù)勊麄兒凸局g的聯(lián)系，告訴我們你能給公司帶來(lái)什么，而不僅僅是你想要什么。”

　　3.Research each employer thoroughly. Just taking a look at the company web site won't do it. "When I ask candidates what they know about us, it's rare that someone tells me something that isn't on our web site," Schweitzer says. "A person who researches the company and mentions something else about us is someone who stands out, because he or she has done more than the typical applicant."

　　3.全面調(diào)查每一位雇主。僅僅在公司主頁(yè)上看一眼并沒(méi)有什么用處。“當(dāng)我問(wèn)起求職者他對(duì)我們公司有什么了解時(shí)，很少有人能說(shuō)出一些在公司網(wǎng)站上沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)的內(nèi)容，”施維澤說(shuō)，“一個(gè)對(duì)公司進(jìn)行過(guò)深入了解并且能說(shuō)出一些別人不知道的事的求職者，必然能夠脫穎而出，因?yàn)樗?她相比其他求職者做了更多功課。”

　　4.Emphasize your leadership skills. "Not everyone we hire is a 4.0 student with a perfect resume," says Schweitzer. "The person who is willing to work hard and put in the extra effort is going to come out ahead. For example, a military veteran with a 3.0 GPA but who has experience leading others, and is used to hard work in extreme situations, is often a better candidate than a 4.0 student who is unable to demonstrate those qualities."

　　4.重點(diǎn)強(qiáng)調(diào)自己的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)能力。施維澤說(shuō)：“我們聘用的員工并不是一個(gè)擁有完美簡(jiǎn)歷，平均分達(dá)到4.0的好學(xué)生。只有能吃苦耐勞并且在工作上愿意付出更多的學(xué)生才會(huì)得到青睞。比如說(shuō)，一個(gè)退伍老兵平均成績(jī)只有3.0，但他對(duì)于領(lǐng)導(dǎo)別人特別有經(jīng)驗(yàn)，并且習(xí)慣了在極端情況下努力工作。相比那些無(wú)法在這些品質(zhì)上證明自己的4.0學(xué)生，我們當(dāng)然更愿意聘用這位老兵。”

　　5.Polish your online presence. When prospective employers Google you (and they will), you want them to be impressed by what they find. "A candidate's online image is so much more important than it was in the past," notes Alexa Hamill.

　　5.打磨自己的網(wǎng)絡(luò)形象。當(dāng)潛在雇主通過(guò)谷歌搜索你的時(shí)候(他們肯定會(huì)這么做)，你肯定希望他們搜索到的結(jié)果能令他們心動(dòng)。亞力克莎-哈米爾說(shuō)：“現(xiàn)在求職者的網(wǎng)絡(luò)形象前所未有地重要。”
