惨, 我们组除了组长过关, 其他人全被“枪毙”了。我想, 组长被选中, 应该是由于他表现出来的积极和踊跃。而相比之下, 我就没有同样强势地坚持自己的观点。(Key Words)我之所以觉得这件事情是我最大的失败, 并不是因为结果的失败, 而是因为自己心态上的一种失败。我在心态上, 没有完全投入到解决问题的实战中, 而是过分注重个人留给面试官的印象, 总是提醒自己不能太aggressive呀, 据说面试官最讨厌太aggressive的“出头鸟”呀!这样的心态导致我不能强势地坚持自己的观点, 最终导致失败。从这个失败, 我明白了一个道理, 无论做什么事情都要有“公心”, 也就是要想方设法为集体解决问题, 为了集体的利益即使失去了个人的风度也在所不惜。而如果“私心”太重, 反而会影响自己的表现。(点评: 后面的这段总结似乎偏长, 但在实际面试中, 也只需要一分钟就可以阐述完毕, 而且很可能是在面试官引导之下逐步完成的。)
第十节 以“WhatS。T。A。R。Key Words陈述法”(5)
点评1: 这个回答的精彩之处在于申请人的自我升华, 他从一次普通的失败之中, 领悟出一个做事的准则: 有公心, 无私心, 自然会解决事情并赢得别人的尊重。这是职场人士所欣赏的黄金素质。
回答示范2: (What) 我来面试之前想过很多次这个问题, 但是一直没有找出特别合适的例子。您从我的简历中可以看到, 我几乎一直是一帆风顺的, 名牌大学, 名牌专业, 在班级里担任班长。在大学我也的确有过一些挫折, 但我都觉得是很正常的, 比如没有拿到一等奖学金, 某次活动组织的效果不太好等等, 我觉得谈不不上是特别大的失败。所以, 我想跟您分享一个可能让您觉得很“另类”的失败。我觉得, 我最失败的地方在于, 在过去这么多年以来, 我没有真正走出自己的路, 我所走过的道路, 几乎都是被设计好的。(Situation) 您知道, 我们潮汕人, 相对而言我的家人比较重男轻女, 而我是整个大家族里的长子长孙, 从小就备受关注, 什么事情都被安排好了。(Actions) 我考大学时自己想到北方去锻炼一下, 但是最终还是顺从家里的意愿到了广外。在学校里面, 我非常希望像其他同学一样多做一些家教, 多参加一些兼职, 锻炼一下自己的生存能力, 但是, 我又受到了学校老师的“设计”: 我在三年多的时间里, 参加了二十几场英文比赛和辩论赛。参加比赛的确给了我很大的锻炼, 但是, 从另一个角度来看, 我觉得自己有点像“伤仲永”里头的那个小仲永, 一直被弄到各种场合去表演自己的某一种才能。(Result) 所以, 您今天看到的我的简历就是这样, 有无数的荣誉, 大家都觉得很厉害, 但是我心里却有很多遗憾, 我觉得自己应该更多地接触社会。(Key Words)不知道您是否会觉得这是失败, 我自己认为是。不过, 我很高兴在求职的过程中, 我坚持了自我, 老师让我考研, 我回绝了。家里让我考公务员, 我已决定不去考。
点评2: 这是一个非常另类的回答, 但是无疑会令面试官印象非常深刻, 而且一定会颇为赞叹: “在取得傲人的成就的同时, 懂得反省自己的不足, 难能可贵。”
回答示范3: (What) 最失败的一件事情, 是我去年设计的一个玩具塑料外壳报废了10万个, 造成了3万多块钱的损失。(Situation) 我刚设计出来这个外壳的时候大家都特别激动, 因为这种新的设计方法能够省料20%多, 而且更好看, 一年下来能省十几万块钱。(Actions)当时我们正好接到一个订单, 老板决定马上用这种新外壳。我作为设计者, 应该阻止老板这么急地把一个还不成熟的设计用到大量生产中去, 但是我抱着侥幸心理没有阻止。(Result)结果很糟糕, 我们第一批料出来的产品有一半出现了问题, 两片外壳合不拢。后来我又调整了卡口的设计才解决问题。(Key Words) 这是我迄今为止最大的失败, 以后我就谨慎多了。
点评3: 在通向成功的道路上, 你经历了一些在所难免的失败。请把这样“成功前的失败”分享给面试官吧, 让他既了解你失败的经历, 也看到你追求成功的素质。
二、 英文行为面试访谈问题举例
英文的行为面试访谈问题, 每个题目往往都包含着一个主要的考查意图, 比如说, 有的题目考查的是创新能力, 有的题目考查的是团队精神, 而有的则考查的是领导能力。这些考查意图会非常明显地在题目本身的Key Words当中表现出来。所以, 在回答这种问题的时候, 你的描述应该侧重于“WhatS。T。A。R。Key Words描述法”中的Key Words。
以下这些题目选自宝洁八大题, 但是它们实际上具有非常普遍的代表性, 基本包含了外企公司所要考核的全部内容。如果读者感兴趣的是一家比较著名的外企公司, 或者是一家相当不错的国内公司, 请务必仔细准备下面这八大题目。
