透析外企面试(5):如何回答面试中的行为性问题(上)
在外企面试中,主考官除了就简历上所列出的相关信息提问外,还会要求你讲述你曾经遇到的一个具体问题或任务,并介绍你是如何处理这一问题或任务的,以及最后的处理结果如何。与此同时,主考官还可能会对你叙述的细节进行追问,以便从中更全面地了解你的相关素质。由于这类问题主要考查应聘者过去的行为表现,故被称为“行为性问题”。具体而言,面试中常见的行为性问题涉及的方面包括应聘者的领导能力、决策能力、解决问题的能力、创新能力、沟通能力、组织策划能力、团队合作能力、抗压能力、适应能力、注重细节的能力等。
关于应聘者的领导能力
Tell me how you went about setting the goals for your team members and gaining commitment from them.通过这一问题,主考官主要想了解应聘者是如何通过设置团队目标来领导自己的团队,以及采取了何种方法或手段来引导团队成员实现目标。在回答这一问题时,应聘者应当使用恰当的例子,充分说明自己擅长制定团队目标并领导团队成员实现目标。以下回答针对的是如何成功地为销售团队制定目标,以及制定目标会带来怎样的好处。
[具体任务] I needed to set the sales team objectives for the next year.[执行步骤] I referred to the sales department goals for the next year to decide which activities and tasks our team should concentrate on.I clearly communicated the relationship between
our team goals and the department goals to my team members and explained which activities would best result in achieving these goals.[完成结果] The members really benefited from having a clear idea of the team goals and how we could contribute to achieving them.Having clear goals meant they were able to see how each of them was an eential part of the team’s succe, and this motivated them towards achieving the goals.关于应聘者的决策能力
Tell me about an important decision you made in your previous job.通过这一问题,主考官想要了解的是应聘者能否作出思维缜密的决策,是否具备果断的决策能力。在回答这一问题时,应聘者首先应该分析各种影响自己决策的因素,然后权衡各种选择,最后作出最妥当的决策。以下参考回答是关于如何更经济地为公司采购原材料。
[具体任务] I was in charge of the purchase of raw materials for our company.[执行步骤] We always ordered a month’s supply at a time to keep inventory costs low.I had to decide whether to keep doing this or buy six months’ supply and get a discount for ordering such a big volume and escape poible future price increases.I did some research and figured out that we could reduce our costs by buying for six months, especially since the amount we used remained practically unchanged month on month.[完成结果] It
turned out that I was right, and the prices increased quite a lot during those six months.关于应聘者解决问题的能力
Describe a thorny problem you had to solve in your last job.这个问题旨在考查应聘者识别问题、分析问题和解决问题的能力。应聘者首先应从自己的工作经历中寻找一个与所应聘职位密切相关的实例,然后说明自己是如何处理这一问题的,并对处理结果加以描述。此外,应聘者选择的实例最好是自己成功解决的问题。以下参考回答是关于如何成功处理客户对质量低劣产品的投诉。
[具体问题] Last July, we were receiving a lot of complaints about the poor quality of our products.[解决措施] I met with the staff concerned in the Quality Control Department and discovered that the problem seemed to be with the poor raw materials from our vendors.I investigated and found that the system for checking the quality of raw materials was outdated.Then, an up-to-date system for checking the quality of raw materials was quickly introduced.[处理结果] This sorted out the problem and we had fewer complaints from our clients.关于应聘者的创新能力
Tell me about a suggestion that you have recently made to your manager.这一问题是用来了解应聘者是否具备积极主动的创新思维能力,是否能够为公司提供一些有益的创意。应聘者从过去的工作经历中搜寻的相关案例,要能说明自己能够积极主动地为公司提供有益于公司发展的建议。以下参考回答是关于如何说服上司为采购部的员工提供一次有关即将上市的新产品的培训。
[具体问题] I worked in the Purchasing Department and the company was launching a new product.The Sales Department had in-depth training on it, but we had none.[解决建议] I suggested that the Purchasing Department should also receive the training so that we would better understand what components should be purchased and be able to ask our vendors some wise questions.It was agreed that we would all undergo a short version of the training.[处理结果] This meant that we could deal profeionally with our vendors and it also motivated us, feeling part of the launch excitement.关于应聘者的沟通能力
