Below is a quick quiz to test your interview savvy. Read through the following true-or-false statements to assess your Interview IQ。
下面是一个快速测试来检验你的面试领悟力。通过选出对还是错来测试一下你的面试IQ吧。
1. If I prepare too much for an interview I will seem desperate. (True/False?)
1。如果我准备太多会显得我太渴望这份工作了。（对/错？）
False. There is nothing worse than an unprepared interviewee. Make sure you have done your homework about the organization and the job skills required before the interview. This will help when you're asked, "Why do you want to work here?" Plus, you can ask knowledgeable questions when your turn comes around。
错误。没有比毫无准备的接受面试更糟糕的事情了。在面试前要确保你做好关于公司以及工作需要的“作业”。当你被问到“你为什么想在这里工作？”的时候这些会有帮助的。此外，轮到你提问的时候你也能问出一些有见地的问题。
2. Before the interview, put yourself in the interviewer's shoes to see things from their perspective。
2。在面试前，设身处地的从面试官的角度去看问题。
True. Typically, interviewers are busy and easily distracted. Remember that you may be one of 10 people that they have talked to in the last five hours. Don't make them struggle to get answers out of you or make sense of your rambling replies。
正确。面试官通常都很忙，很容易心烦。要记住你可能是他们在过去五小时内和他们谈过话的十个人之一。别让他们绞尽脑汁才能明白你的答案或者理解你散漫的回答。
3. Role-playing to prepare for typical interview questions is really important。
准备常规性面试做个角色扮演的准备是非常重要的。
True. Practicing your responses to typical interview questions is paramount. Role-play with a friend and get feedback on how you come across. For example, if you say that you are really excited about the job but sound hesitant, you will not seem credible。
正确。练习回答一些常规性的面试问题是非常重要的。和一位朋友做些角色扮演吧，你能得到一些反馈怎么能得到更好的效果。比如你说你真的为这份工作感到非常兴奋但是口气很犹豫的话，你看上去就不太可信。
4. If you have reservations about your abilities or skills for the position you should tell the whole truth。
4。面试某一职位，如果你对自己的能力或技巧有所保留你应该将真相和盘托出。
True/False. You should not tell a lie and say you have five years of experience when you really have two. Nor should you fully disclose your inadequacies. If you left your last job because you were fired, there's no need to bring that up. When the employer asks you about your biggest mistake, pick a less emotionally charged experience and emphasize what you learned from it。
既对又不对。如果你只有两年的经验，你就不应该撒谎说有五年。但也不应该揭自己的短。如果你离开上一份工作是因为被炒了，就不需要提起这件事。当雇主问起你最大的错误，挑一个不那么糟糕的经历并且强调自己从中学到了什么。
5. A job interview is a one-direction conversation, like on a talk show。
5。工作面试是单向的谈话，像脱口秀一样。
