通过个性的问答,面试官可以初步判断面试者的性格特点是否适合职位的需要。性格外向的人往往容易给人留下热情活泼、思维敏捷但不深沉的印象,这类性格的人在面试时说话的节奏要适当放慢,语言组织得当,要注意给人以博学多才、见多识广的良好形象。性格内向的人则容易给人留下深沉有余、反应迟缓的印象,在面试时,这类性格的人要力争积极回答,并就某一重大观点展开论述,以弥补自己性格上的不足。
常用句型:
Do you think you work well on a team?
A1: Yes, I think so. Working as part of a team is one of the most impor?tant elements in a successful career and life. If you can’t work well on a team, you probably can’t work and com?municate well on a one-on-one basis either.
While teamwork is very important, I can work just as hard alone. Though more pressure to produce might ex?ist, it would also prove to be a challenge. Whether I prefer to work as part of a team or alone depends on the best way to complete the job. Either way, I would work equally hard with the initiative required for success.
《白领英语900句》:关于你喜欢团队工作还是独自工作是一个比较常问的问题,鉴于现在大多数企业都提倡团队建设,强调合作能力,因此你不能简单的只回答yes或no.要说出一些合理的理由。
A2: Yes. I was captain of the basketball team in college-it was a great experience and a great chance to work with my peers outside of the class?room. I would keep track of new strategies, organize extra practices, and arrange social events for the team. I always thought it was important for the team to spend time together off the court-we got to know each other better, and this helped us work together in games.
《白领英语900句》:直接用事例来说明"喜欢团队工作"是再好不过的,你的面试官直接从例子中了解你的性格特征,进而做出判断。因此这样的回答可以为你的面试加分哦。

《白领英语900句》:这样的回答显然没有前面那么老练,态度也比较谦逊,虽然没有用具体的事例但是从社会的角度表明自己的观点,语言比较朴实自然。
A4: Yes, I am a really good team player, and appreciate having the resources of a fantastic team all working towards the same outcome. I feel comfortable in groups, and enjoy team activities, such as brainstorming, name generation, coming up with strategic platforms together, and iden?tifying new trends in the marketplace. In my last job, I worked for a famous branding identity company, and some of our meetings would last for days and days. I know that your company is also structured around a true team concept, and would love to hear more about it.

Do you like to work with facts and figures?
A1: Absolutely. That’s the basis of this work. I’ve al?ways had a flair for the numbers side of the business, and my thought processes are very analytical and precise. Accurate books and records are an essential manage?ment tool and can help to identify areas that need im?provement.
《白领英语900句》:如果你喜欢与数字打交道或者你的工作是和数字有关的,比如财务,审计等等,你可以选用以上这种回答。Flair(才能);precise(精确的)
A2: Facts and figures are important. I respect them, I’m good with them, but I don’t get bogged down in them. I always read the reports, and I’m quick to spot inconsis?tencies and errors. 1 don’t check every number twice, though, because that’s not what produces results. Finan?cial records are like X rays that allow a doctor to make a diagnosis. I leave the preparation to the skilled techni?cians. inconsis?tency(矛盾)
《白领英语900句》:如果你不喜欢数字,或者你所应聘的职位并不需要计算,分析这些素质要求,你可以这样委婉地回答。肯定事实和数字的重要性,又很巧妙地把这个问题用一个X光比喻来表明自己的观点。为面试增色不少。
What career or business would you consider if you were starting over again?
A1: I like what I’m doing now. I chose it, and it has worked out well for me. I suppose the only other work I would consider is___________ .
《白领英语900句》:在这个问题中,你可以提一些与你应聘相关的工作,举个例子,如果这家公司是生产医疗器械,那你后面的回答可以是". . .being a health?care professional, because my work in this field has shown me that the work we are doing is important and that I do it well."这是最直接,最能赢得面试官满意的回答。
A2: Although I’m well-suited to accounting,I like to design and build things. I’ve remodeled our kitchen and built a sun room addition as well as play equipment for my kids. I’ve often thought 1 might have gone into ar?chitecture or drafting and design if I hadn’t gone to busi?ness school. If I had, I’d probably be running a business on the side!
《白领英语900句》:当然,你也可以谈及你所喜欢并擅长的其他相关领域,说不定这个技能或者才能可以赢得面试官的欣赏。或许也会因为这个特长而录用了你。
Do you consider yourself a leader? Why or why not?
A1: Oh, yes, absolutely I have all of the leadership qualities. I’m extroverted, but I also happen to be a terrific listener I consider myself a "big-idea" person, but I can also be hard-nosed and practical when necessary. I was promoted to senior vice president five years ago, and turned a division that was limping along aimlessly into a profitable contender. I helped our team generate $20 million of new business revenues, and even more significantly, retain $80 million of current business.
《白领英语900句》:这种回答适合于有过管理经验的人,但是注意的是不要夸夸其谈自己的管理能力如何如何,举出你的一些业绩,用事实说话。这个回答好在虽然肯定自己的领导才能但也不忘说自己是一个"a terrific listener(很好的倾听者)自信而不乏谦逊;"hard-nosed"就是inflexible, a little bit stubborn.
A2: I don’t think that you can be considered a leader until you’ve actually led a team at a company. Leaders are made, not born. But I am a leader in waiting. In college, I was on the student council. I had gained the "freshman fifteen" (pounds), and I really felt that all of the fried food in the school cafeteria was partly to blame. So I led the drive to get more nutritionally balanced foods on the menu. This involved collecting peti?tions from the students and discussing the situation with several members of the administration. Until I become a leader at your company. I’m determined to learn the ropes from the recognized leaders in your department.
《白领英语900句》:那么对于没有任何工作经验的学生来说,又该如何去回答这个问题呢?大家自己揣摩下这个回答的思路"Leaders are made, not born. But I am a leader in waiting."尽管我没有领导团队的经验,但是我时刻准备着。在学校就从各个方面锻炼自己的各方面能力,然后他列举自己在学生会中一次提倡"食堂食物营养"
