>>Question 8: What are your weaknesses?
問題8：你的缺點是什么？

之前的問題，我們都建議你挑出跟工作相關的內容來回答，但是，這個問題，建議你挑一些跟工作不太相關的缺點來回答。而且，回答的時候，你要突出表達想要盡快改掉這個缺點的意愿。這樣的做人態度是雇主們愿意看到的。

【回答范例】

I am not very patient. That’s obviously bad. But I am working on it every day, trying to control myself and be more tolerant to the others. It’s not easy, but I definitely made good progress in recent years.

Sometimes I struggle to concentrate in job. However, I practice every day and my concentration has improved over the years. I try to eliminate other thoughts and focus purely on my job.

I trust people too much. It is nice to live with such feelings, but it caused me many troubles in the past. However, as I am getting older, I can much better distinguish friends from foes.

>>Question 9: What are your goals in five years horizon?
問題9：五年內，你想達到什么目標？

回答這個問題的時候，千萬不要說自己過幾年想要創業單干。沒有公司想招個人進來，過兩年就辭職單干了。所以，回答的時候可以說一說個人目標，自己的職業發展目標要與公司相關。

I would like to have a really good job in five years time. However, I understand that firstly I need to learn a lot and I believe that this position is a perfect start for me.

>>Question 10: What are your biggest achievements so far?
問題10：到目前為止，你最大的成就是什么？

成就要遠比經歷重要。我們每個人或多或少都有些成就，只是我們自己沒有意識到罷了。面試中提到的成就可以是生活方面的，也可以是工作方面的。比如，你原來抽煙，但是后來戒了，這也可以說明你的意志力很強。

>>Question 11: What characterize a good boss/ colleague from your point of view?
問題11：你覺得，一個好老板、好同事應該是什么樣的？

這個問題主要是看看你的情商夠不夠高，能不能在公司里跟大家和睦相處。回答得太具體，明確表明自己對同事的喜好，并不是一個可取的辦法。最好回答得籠統一些，表明自己性格隨和，跟誰都能相處愉快。

【回答范例】

I can get along with everyone. All I want to be sure about when it comes to my boss and colleagues is that they are qualified for the job we do. When I see the level of proficiency in this interview, I am sure they are.

There is nothing like an ideal boss for me. I simply focus on my job and duties and try to avoid any conflicts with other employees. We are all different and I respect the individuality of each human being.

>>Question 12: What are your salary expectations?
問題12：你期望的薪資是多少？

如果不是面試官首先提出，你不要自己提薪資方面的問題。回答的時候，首先要表明薪資并不是你應聘這個職位的首要因素，如果一定要回答一個具體的數字，那么一定不要低于你心理的那個預期薪資水平。所以，面試之前還是要做功課，了解該職位的薪資水平。

【回答范例】

First of all, salary is not a deciding factor for me. I really like the job description and want to get this job. Therefor, I will accept an average salary for this position what is something between $35,000 and $40,000, according to my knowledge and statistics from salaries.com.

>>Question 13: When can you start the job?
問題13：你什么時候能到崗？

公司當然希望你越快到崗越好，如果你目前還沒有離職，需要一段時間做工作交接，那也要說明白，并且表示你愿意盡早到崗的意愿。

【回答范例】

I am ready to start as soon as possible.

I could possibly start tomorrow, but I want to finish the project I currently work on. It would be very unprofessional and irresponsible if I left now. I need two or three weeks to finish the work and train colleagues to continue it. Then I can start here.

>>Question 14: Do you have any questions?
問題14：你有什么問題嗎？

面試過程中一般都會有提問的機會，究竟該問些什么？首先，崗位職責描述中已經說得很清楚的事情就不要問了，其次，面試過程中已經討論過的也不要問。你可以問一些真正跟這個職位或公司發展相關的問題。

【回答范例】

What are the next steps of interviewing process?

Can you tell me something more about the working environment?

What are the goals of your company (sales department) in one, five and ten years time?
