回AmoyGirl: 3 hour on-site interview 2007-06-14 16:36:19
Dear AmoyGril,
Congratulation for the coming 3 hours on-site interview!
Please don't worry too much, they use their expensive time to give you a
free interview training, no matter what, you are the winner already.
Please don't worry too much, nobody will sit down in there with you for
three hours.
Usually the three hours interview will break to several 45min or 1 hr
sessions, one or two people talk with you at each session.
Before answer any of their question, make sure know who you are talking with
, ask their title and what role they are in the company, and whether they
are the people to make the final decision.
Technical people will focus on technical questions with some behavior
questions, and sometime with some little puzzle ask you to solve (only they
know the answer, so even you failed with the puzzle, you are OK. They just
want to show you they are smarter than you, who care).
Managers will focus on behavior questions and one of the most important
factor for manager's interview is they want to make sure they like your
smiling.
In any case, bring lots of smiling is very helpful. Start smiling after you
leave your car in the parking lot (they are watching you from the office
window...).
In the beginning of the interview, please make a judge of what kind of the
person that interviewer is. This is very important. If he/she is a faster
style guy, then you need answer question quick. If he/she is a lazy and slow
styled, then you need treat him/her as grand pa/ma, take your time, slowly
answer his/her question with smile, not be hurry, because he/she likes the
slow people like him/her, so he/she can keep his/her job secure.
Prepare several questions to ask them.
Please bring couple copies of your resume and two pieces of blank paper to
take a note if you need, at least let them feel you are a responsible person
and listen carefully what they are saying, and taking note.
You win the interview by your attitute, your voice and your smile, not your
skill.
They will look your resume and ask you questions from here. If you find out
that they don't know how to do interview, don't laugh in front of them. keep
it as a secret and share with us.
You can repeat the same key point to different group of the people, so it
will waste their time quicker. And you may feel nervous in the beginning,
but doing much better when you realized you are not too bad because you
already get trained by ???.
No matter what questions they ask you, you should always find time to say:
" Yah, I guess this is a good chance to allow me introduce myself to you, I
was educated at .... and worked ....(just say how good you are and how you
did previously, in 2 min)."
Please well prepaed for your interview, repeat what you plan to say many
many times, until you can say it easily. look people's fore-head instead of
look their eye.
Please be confident. You are the best candidate!
Again, no matter what, they are willing to spend their expensive time to
allow you to mess up their expensive carpet and give you free interview
training, what do you need worry? Nothing. You are the winner already!
