English interview

인터뷰관련자료, 발췌

Q. What are your strength and weakness?

장․단점을 말할때 결정적인 단점을 이야기하면 안된다. 장점은 누구나 수긍할 수 있는 것으로 하고, 단점은 보기에 따라선 장점으로 할 수 있지만 지나치면 문제가 되는 종류로 답변한다.

Recommended Answer(추천할만한 대답 사례)

Honesty has my trademark for years. I think that could be both strength and weakeness. I have never mixed company business with my personal interest. Everyone believe that one must be honest, but some people do not want to apply the same rule to them.

It is difficult for me to work with someone who mixes his personal interest with his work. When it happens to be my fellow employee, it is not going to be easy to respect him.

Never say(좋지 않은 사례)

Well, I do not have anything particular as strength but I am fairly O.K. To answer the weakness part, I may say it is difficult for me to work with people who are not intelligent.

인터뷰 중에 대답하기 곤란한 질문을 받을 경우가 있다. 이러한 질문에 대하여 적절히 대답하는 법을 살펴보자.

- What salary are you looking for?

이와 같이 면접관이 지원자에게 희망임금을 물어보는 경우가 있다. 이 때는 매우 조심해서 대답해야 한다. 직접적인 대답은 피하고 다음과 같이 우회적인 답변을 하는 것이 좋다.

→ I'm very interested in the position and I'd like to earn as much money as I am qualified to earn. How much income would you feel is fair for someone with my qualifications?

→ Well I am currently at $_________, but my main concern is opportunity.

이와 같이 대답하면 임금 협상 여지를 남겨둘 수 있다. 만약 얼마를 받겠다고 구체적으로 얘기를 하게 되면 자칫 면접관에게 돈에만 관심이 있는 사람으로 비쳐지게 된다.

만약 면접관이 적정한 임금을 제시할 경우에는 즉시 수락한다. 판단하기 곤란한 경우 하루정도의 여유를 달라고 할 수는 있지만, 오랫동안 고민할 경우, 다른 지원자를 채용할 수도 있다는 것을 잊어서는 안된다.

- Why are you leaving your present position?

→ "I enjoy my work, ______ is a great company, but this is my current situation _______ and when I heard about the opportunity here I wanted to pursue it."

- What is your weakness?

→ "I am always looking to improve my ________ skills."

질문에 대한 이해가 부족한 경우, 주저하지 말고 면접관에게 다음과 같이 요청한다. 면접은 취조가 아니라 커뮤니케이션이라는 것을 잊어서는 안된다.

"Leo, I'm not sure I understand the thrust of your question, and I certainly don't want to appear evasive or unresponsive. Could I ask you to tell me a bit more about what issues or concerns you'd like me to address?"

면접관에게 질문할 수 있는 기회가 주어졌을 때 질문할 수 있는 내용은 다음과 같다.

- What would I be expected to accomplish in this position?

- What are the greatest challenges in this position?

- How do you think I fit the position?

지원하는 직무에 대해 질문하지 않는 것이 흥미가 없기 때문이라고 생각할 수도 있으므로, 기회가 허락한다면 업무에 대한 다양한 질문을 던지는 것이 좋다.

답변: I failed my first business calculus test, which made me very unhappy. I wasn`t going to let this incident set the trend for the rest of the semester. I went to my counselor and arranged to meet with a tutor once a week. My tutor helped me out incredibly.

My grades soon improved, and I went on to redeem myself from my one slip-up on the first test.
