面試陳述不要一律

當被問到以前的工作經驗時，你可能會千篇一律的重復簡歷上的那段話。這樣就喪失了針對性。你應該事先調查一下你要應聘的工作的具體內容，這樣好在陳述時突出和工作相契合的部分，增加面試成功的機率。
　　thinking the job description is set in stone

　　職位描述是固定不變

　　when you start an interview, find out what you''re interviewing for. typically, the person who writes and publishes a job description is not the person making the hiring decision. ask the hiring manager what the goals are for the position, and ask who the new hire will work most closely with so you know who''ll have the biggest say in whether or not you get hired.面試時，你得注意發現雇傭方想要的是什么。一般情況下，寫作和發布職位信息的人不是決定雇傭與否的人。咨詢一下招聘人員你所應聘的職位是做什么的，這個職位和誰的工作關系最緊密，這樣你就知道了誰是那個握有生殺大權的人，他會決定是否雇傭你。

　　and, if you get the job, remember that it could change all over again. immediately. so don''t ever assume you know what your job is until you investigate. the only constant about your job description is that you must be invaluable to your boss in order to succeed.即使你被錄取了，你也要記住，事情完全可能發生變化。沒準兒會立刻發生。所以在調查前，不要以為你知道具體工作是什么。關于職位描述中唯一不變的是要顯示出你對老板來說非常有價值，這樣才能保證你面試成功。(to be continued)
