年轻的求职者都会犯的10个错

2014-03-28来源:businessinsider
6. Making the interview about them
面试的求职者们不站在老板的角度看问题

not the employer. ”Job seekers who spend their initial interview talking about why they need a job, how much they want some company benefit, etc. instead of talking about how they will solve problems for the company and bring value are ensuring they will not be asked back for second interviews or hiring,” says Karen Southall Watts, consultant, coach and speaker. “Everyone is well aware of the fact that people need jobs. Hiring managers want to know why, of all the needy, worthy candidates, they should hire you.”
“求职者们在初次面试中讨论为什么需要一份工作,他们想要从公司得到诸多好处之类,等等,绝口不提如何为公司排忧解难解决问题从而为公司带来价值,保证自己别再进行第二次面试或招聘,”顾问、教练和演说家凯伦-索思豪尔瓦说。“每个人都清楚这样一个事实:人们需要工作。招聘经理想知道原因,在所有需求的、有价值的候选人中,他们应该雇用你。”

7. Dressing inappropriately in professional settings
穿衣不得体不够职业

”Often, first-time job seekers have not been exposed to work-appropriate attire,” says Lindsay Witcher, manager of practice development at RiseSmart, which provides next-generation enterprise career management solutions. “How you dress directly affects how people perceive you and whether or not they will take you seriously. For this reason, make sure you are dressed professionally when networking and interviewing. If you aren’t sure what is appropriate, ask for the opinions of a few people you trust who have a few years of successful professional experience under their belt.”
“通常,初次求职者不穿职业装,”RiseSmart实业发展经理林赛-威彻说,这家公司给出了下一代企业职业生涯管理解决方案。“你的穿衣打扮直接影响人们是否会认真对待你。出于这个原因,保证你在面试的时候穿着职业得体。如果你不确定穿什么得体,向有数年职业成功经验丰富自己信任的人争取一下意见。”

8. Being unenthusiastic
缺乏热情

”Enthusiasm is critical to being considered for a position,” Witcher says. “If you appear bored or as if you have something better to do while interviewing or networking, hiring managers will not consider you as a viable candidate. Show enthusiasm not only through your conversation, but through your knowledge about the company and your interest in the position.”
“热情这一特质至关重要,”威彻说。“你在面试或网络沟通时,如果你表现出无聊的状态,或者表现出积极主动的状态,招聘经理是不会把你考虑为候选人的。你们之间不仅通过谈话的方式表现出热情,通过你对公司的了解和你对职位的兴趣也能表现出自己热情高涨积极主动的状态。”

9. Focusing on salary
只关注薪水

”Young professionals often fail to look at the big picture when deciding whether or not to take a position and instead focus too much on the salary,” says Chaz Pitts-Kyser, speaker on career/life topics for young professionals and author of “Embracing the Real World: The Black Woman’s Guide to Life After College.” “But how happy will they be with what seems to be a great salary if their benefits are measly, the commute gives them a headache or their workload is insane? Everything about a company and what it offers and does not offer should be taken into consideration prior to accepting or rejecting a job offer.”
“年轻职业人往往不从决定要不要这个工作职位的大局上着眼,反而过于关注自己的工资问题,”职业/人生主题演讲者Chaz Pitts-Kyser说,他也是《接受真实世界》的作者:该书内容是黑人女性毕业人生指南。”“但是如果求职者们要求不是很高的话,那么给他们一笔自己认为还算不错的薪水,他们该是多么高兴呢!上下班的辛苦劳累让他们感到头痛?还是超负荷的工作量让他们发疯?关于一家公司的一切,它能给你什么不能给你什么,面试之前都应该考虑好时接受还是拒绝这份工作。”

10. Knowingly taking the wrong job
要意识到自己是否选错了工作

”Times are hard, and it’s not always wise to hold out for the perfect job,” Watts says. “However, when you get that sinking feeling, and you know a position is a poor match for your skills or temperament, you are wise to pass. When in doubt, discuss with a mentor before making irreversible decisions.”
日子艰难的时候,总是无法坚持聪明地把工作做好,”瓦茨说。”然而,你感觉自己情绪低落时,你要知道一个工作职位与你的技能或气质是不匹配的,求职面试成功通过的你是聪明的。在犹豫着抉做不做这个不可挽回的决定之前,要与导师谈一谈。”
