工作前应该问清的关键问题

 工作前应该问清的关键问题

1. Is the salary negotiable?

'This is a question on every candidate's lips,' said Lee Biggins, founder1 and managing director of CV-Library.

'If you don't try, you don't get. Be prepaRed to back your case though as every employer2 is out to cut costs where possible - even if you're the best person for the job.'

2. Aside from salary, what other workplace perks3 do you offer your staff?

While some companies can't offer the highest wages, they are able make up for it in other areas. Ask this question to find out how else they reward staff, whether it's flexible working, free lunches, and so on.

3. What are the career development opportunities?

It's a staple4 question, but very important. If you're an individual that is driven by your ability to move up the ladder, this will help you understand the routes available and the potential timeframes.

4. Can you provide me with an example of a team member who recently got promoted?

This is another good way to find out what success and growth looks like in the company and helps you to know whether people are getting promoted and for what reasons.

5. If I asked your employees to describe the company, what would they say?

Asking this question really puts the employer on the spot, but helps you to understand the company culture and how you could potentially fit.

  扩展:面试时需要注意的一些小事

And while interviews might seem easy enough to some people, it's often the simplest things that completely ruin their chances.

Now, a number of amused employers have taken to social media to reveal the things interviewees said that stopped them getting the job.

One of the things that irritated employers the most was the use of slang in formal interviews.

'Interviewee said her Microsoft Excel skills were "on fleek" in an interview. You are interviewing at a professional organisation1. Don't use slang and pop culture vocabulary,' a frustrated2 employer wrote on Reddit.

'Yes I know what on fleek means. But I'm trying to employ the best. The professional world is not charity. I don't owe you a job just because you have a piece of paper.'

Others were shocked by some of the skills listed by their potential employees.

'This one didn't quite make it to the interview stage, but I once received a resume from a candidate who listed "excellent profreading" in her "skills" section,' a manager wrote.

Others said interviewees requested triple pay, multiple assistants, refused criminal record checks and smoked during Skype interviews.

Some also asked whether their partners could attend the interviews with them and asked whether the company did drug testing... as one of their first questions.

'When asked why they wanted to work in this industry, the answer was "why not?"' An amused manager wrote.

'They then gave the same answer when asked why they wanted to work for us rather than a competitor.'

Another was shocked by a potential flight attendant's honesty.

'Came to the end of the interview with one woman and asked "why do you really want to be a flight attendant",' she wrote.

'Woman sighed loudly and said "I just love pilots!"'

Other frustrations3 included people lying on their resumes, being late, interrupting the interviewer, bringing pets to the interview and calling the boss names like 'doll' and 'honey.'
