谈你的管理方式和你与同事、领导之间的人际技巧。谈谈你是如何从所敬佩的领导人身上学到好的习惯。
Q:Describe your personal management style。
A:I repeat what someone has told me;but I reorganize the information in a way that helps them see the problem or answer themselves。Sometimes I just ask questions until they see a clear solution。I learned this from watching a friend who's a ccessful trial lawyer。
问:你觉得你跟哪一类型的人一起工作能使工作最有成效?
答:我倾向于和有自信并且性格直率的人一起工作,与懦弱的人一起相处则较难,因为我工作节奏快且处事果断。
重点谈积极的方面,你是哪种类型的上司、员工和同事?请记住,面试官想知道你如何与公司的其他人处得好,而不是公司里别的员工如何适应你。
Q:What type of people do you work with most effectively?A:I tend to work well with people who are confident and straightforward。Its more difficult for me to be around timid eople;because I move quickly and am decisive。
问:同事给你印象最深的是什么?
答:我敬佩性格好、诚实而且正直的人,并能与他们合作得很好。我认为,自信和热情在任何工作环境里都起积极的作用。
雇主想知道你的人际关系技巧怎么样。更可能的就是,你不但要跟你所在的部门的人交往,更要与公司的其他人交往。显现出你能在这方面表现出色。
Q:What things impress you in colleagues?
A:I admire and work best with people who are of good character and have integrity。I also think confidence and enthusiasm is positive in any business environment。
第二部分(6~10问)
韦鲁基
问:你的上司所做的事情有哪些是你不喜欢的?
答:我惟独不喜欢的一件事就是当着大家的面询问反馈信息,我愿意私下听取正反两面的反馈,以使我有时间且不受任何干扰地对该问题进行思考和作出反应。我相信这是提高学识或改变将来的行为的公平做法。
介绍一下你从困境中学到的积极经验,尽可能地避免对前任老板或经理进行批评。
Q:What are some of the things your supervisor did that you disliked?
A:The only thing I really dont like is to get feedback in front of others。I want to hear good or bad feedback in private;so that I have time to think and react to the issue without other distractions。I believe thats the fair way to improve earning or to change future behavior。
问:你如何组织和安排那些重点项目?
答:我会事先集体讨论,假定最好、最糟糕和最可能出现的情形。接着我会拟定一个比较切实可行的时间表。我发现在计划执行中最好和最坏的一面都会同时出现,当这些问题出现时,我就能容易地调整我的计划,因为我已经想像到会发生什么事情和我该如何作出反应。
告诉面试官,你在完成复杂任务的一般方法上的一个好主意。你可以从以下方面着手:你如何安排时间、设置时间下限、任务轻重缓急的排序、分派任务和决定你该做什么。
Q:How do you organize and plan for major projects?
A:I love to brainstorm a best;worst;and most likely scenario。Then I set a timetable thats realistic。What I usually find is that some bination of my best and worst cases evolves;I can adjust my schedule easily as these things unfold because Ive already visualized what could happen and how Id react。
问:描述一下你在巨大压力下工作的一次经历。
答:在连续不断地工作了两个星期后,我还得完成最后的1/4的工作。
打进打出的电话多得令人难以置信,因为我不能随身带着办公文件。很幸运,我有个得力的秘书和不错的文件系统。最后,我们把每件事都处理得井井有条。
回答这样一个问题,最好的办法就是集中在你的时间安排技巧上。举一个有足够细节的例子,谈你面临的严峻形势及你如何轻松自如地解决了问题。
Q:Describe a time when youve worked under intensepressure。
A:I had to plete an endofquarter report once while I was on the road for two consecutive weeks。The amount of lephoning back and forth was incredible;because I couldnt bring my office files with me。Luckily I had a great secretary and a logical filing system;so we located everything we needed。
问:在典型的工作日,你如何安排时间?
答:我总是给予已建立起关系的顾客优先权,因为他们提供给我们更好的机遇和回报。最后一件事,是处理商业信件,尤其是内部的商业函件,这些都放在快下班或周末去做。
面试官想要一个证据来证明求职者能根据工作队伍的需要、部门的调整及任务的性质,来对工作做出轻重缓急的安排。他还想确信你不会为了避免工作的单调而优先娱乐,从长远来看,必要的惯例对于工作来说是很重要的。
Q:How do you manage your time on a typical day?
A:Ive always given priority to work with established clients;because they offer a better risk/return value。The last thing I do is general correspondence;especially internal correspondence;which I take care of at the end of the day or week。
问:描绘你按别人的建议行事的例子。
答:我改变了我的办公时间,因为几个员工都觉得除了早上,其余时间就很难找到我。
展示你灵活的一面和你的人际关系技巧。人们乐意向你提建议吗?他们会相信你能公平客观地听取他们的意见吗?当你确实接受建议时,你会对他们表示赞赏吗?使面试官相信你的管理方式是合理的、公正的,而且你欣赏别人的好建议。
Q:Describe a time when you acted on someones suggestion。
A:I changed my open office hours because several of my employees found it difficult to visit me except in the early mornings。
第三部分(11~15问)
韦鲁基
问:描述你在上司面前为自己的见解辩护的一次经历。
答:我说服上司改变公关公司。我确信以芝加哥为基地的公司不能满足我们在西海岸的利益,通过向上司展示客源统计变化后,我说服了他。
这与描述“你按他人的建议行事的经历”是相对立的。你能提出有建设性的建议并且让他人明白你的想法吗?请举出具体的例子来说明。
Q:Tell me about a time when you had to defend an idea to your boss。
A:Once I had to convince my boss to change PR firms。I really believed that our interests on the West Coast werent being met by our Chicagobased firm。I was able to convince him after showing him the demographic shift in our customer base。
问:你想改变你的管理形式的哪些方面?
答:别人向我征求意见时,我常常控制着自己不把答案直接告诉别人。我认为使别人学会如何解决问题更为重要。我越来越善于教导别人并提出问题,但我从不告诉别人该怎么做。
谈谈你正在努力改进的管理方式的一个方面。告诉面试官你采取的步骤,并给出证据来说明你取得的进步。
Q:What aspect of your management style would you like to change?
A:Ive been working on holding back the urge to tell people the answers when they ask for advice。I think its more mportant to teach people how to solve their own problems。Ive gotten better at coaching and presenting questions and feedback without telling people what to do。
问:你有没有感到上司及同事对你的排斥?
答:我必须说明一下为何我曾认为黑白色调更切合保险小册子的内容。最初,办公室里没有人赞同这个想法,因为我们都习惯于彩色的册子,人人都认为黑白册子看上去显得低档。最后我终于说服大家,用更为巧妙的方法呈现死亡抚慰金这一大难题会更行之有效。
举出具体例子说明你为自己的观点辩护的例子。避开谈及个性抵触、怨恨情绪或愤怒的争吵。你如何令别人理解你的观点?结果如何?一定要以积极的语气结束谈话。
Q:Have you ever felt defensive around your boss or peers?
A:I had to explain once why I thought a blackandwhite brochure was more suitable for the content of an insuranceproduct brochure。No one in my office liked the idea initially;because we were all used to color brochures;and everybody felt that black and white looked cheap。Eventually I convinced them that a more subtle approach would work better to present information about a difficult topicdeath benefits。
问:谈谈影响你管理风格的一次学习经历。
答:我早期在银行工作时,给一位副执行主席发信,但忘记给在他手下做事的两位副行政主席发副本。其中一位断定我有意作梗。从那以后,我对关键环节非常小心。
把你的回答内容稍作改变,用以回应这个问题:“谈谈你最不喜欢的经理或监督员”。在此描述一次正面或反面的使你获得有效管理经验的教训,或者描述一位经理让你做你认为难以实现的事情的手段,他是如何激发你的?
Q:Tell me about a learning experience that affected your management style。
A:Early in my job at the bank,I wrote a letter to an EVP but failed to make copies for the two AVPs who worked for him。One of them was impacted by the content of the memo and concluded that Id circumvented him on purpose。Ive really been careful about chain of mand ever since。
问:你有没有仿效过别人的管理形式?
答:我在许多方面效仿我的第一位上司。我在桌上为每个工作成员准备了一个文件袋。他们可把便条、想法、要我检查的工作或其他东西放在那儿,我就用这些材料来处理事情。这成为我们大家沟通的另一种形式。那么,当我们坐下来谈论时,要解决的问题都在手头上了。
你应该描述一位自己认识的上司,用积极的方式激发你去达到超出你自己目标的要求。详细说明他是如何实现这种做法的。
Q:Have you patterned your management style after someone in particular?
A:Ive emulated my first boss in many ways。I keep a file for each member of my staff on my desk。They can throw notes;ideas;work they want me to review;or anything else in there;and I do the same with material I have for them。It's an xtraform of munication whenever one of us gets an idea。Then;when we sit down to talk;the issues we need to cover are in one place;at our fingertips。
第四部分(16~19问)
韦鲁基
问:描述一位你敬佩的领导。
答:我一直很敬佩公司的董事长,他不是那种高高在上的人,他不占用特殊的车位或餐位,他给人的感觉就像他只是团体里的一员而已。举例说明你认为能干的领导,这个例子可以是个人认同的,也可以是大众认同的。为何你相信这位领导能取得如此的成就?你从你所敬佩的领导身上学到了什么?
Q:Describe a leader you admire。
A:Ive always admired the president of my pany。He's vi
