第十部分：成就(6～10问)

        问：你喜欢什么样的挑战？?

　　答：我在服务业做了八年，而且逐步地在更大、更有知名度的酒店工作。

　　我熟悉食品与饮料方面的业务和酒店管理的业务，我相信能做好会议营业经理这项工作。

　　根据上一份工作中所学的来谈你下一步自然要发展的技能。你认为下一步要处理好什么事情？尽可能详细地谈及你所了解的有关这份工作和部门在目前或日后的发展方向。??

　　Q:What new challenges would you enjoy?

　　A:I?ve worked in the hospitality industry for over eight years and have progressively worked in larger, more prestigious¹ hotels. I've learned the food?and?beverage² side of the business and the hotel?management side, and now I believe I'm ready to be a convention?or conference?sales manager.? ?

　　问：如果你能再从头开始，你会选择哪种职业？?

　　答：一直以来我喜欢销售这一行，因为我不断进步。回首往事，我希望在职业生涯早期能积累更多的市场调查经验，因为这对于了解定量模型类型和专业研究技巧很重要，而这对于地区营销经理来说很重要。?

　　面试官想知道你的职业方向（包括这次面试）对你来说是否不太称心。谨慎地表明你喜欢这个领域。展示你的见识，这些见识能让新手少走弯路、少费时间等等。

　　Q:If you could start all over again, what direction would your career take?

　　A:I?ve always enjoyed consumer sales as I've moved up in my career. Looking back, I wish I'd gotten a bit more experience in market research earlier in my career, because it?s important to understand the types of quantitative³ models and technical?research techniques that are now important for a regional sales manager to know.

　　问：工作中你在哪些方面还没有得到发展？?

　　答：我在我公司的财务部门已经取得了很大的成就，这是家大公司。还在不同类型的两家工厂做过财务主任，在大公司办公室和商业规划领域做过资金预算工作。但是，至今我还没有机会在财政部工作。我学过金融专业，而且有几年金融经验，我相信现在我有能力担任这项职务，我下一步的目标就是要为成为顶尖的财政官员而不断努力。

　　描述一下你想担任的但没得到的职务。你认为接下来要着手处理什么事情？谈谈你为何没机会担任那项职务，注意不要说得消极。描述一下你为达到目标所付出的不懈努力。问问自己，现在的雇主是否认同你已有能力担任这项职务。?

　　Q:What achievements have eluded⁴ you?

　　A:I?ve achieved considerable success at the finance department of my company, a large corporation. I've worked in two different plants as the director of finance. I?ve worked in capital budgets at the corporate⁵ office and in the business?planning area. Unfortunately, I?ve never had the opportunity to work in the treasury⁶ department. Based on my graduate finance education and my several years? finance experience, I?m now convinced that I?m ready to handle this responsibility and that it'l be the next step in my learning curve toward a top finance?executive position.??

　　问：你认为要在这个行业有所发展，还需多久？?

　　答：我个人认为对工作发展的衡量，主要是看获得的新技巧、新知识和新的专业见识。只要能按这种方式来衡量发展，我就是成功的。我相信要让自己的工作得以发展就要不断学习本职工作以外的相关领域的知识。

　　这个问题跟“5年内你想做到什么样的职务？”是相类似的。根据你对这个职务所了解到的情况来回答这个问题，尽可能详细地谈。不要提你下一步想得到的职衔，否则面试官会怀疑你是否会专注这份工作。??

　　Q:How long do you think you?d continue to grow in this job? 　　A:My own personal measure of growth in a job is acquiring new skills, new knowledge, and new insights into the industry. As long as I can measure this type of gowth, I consider myself successful. I?m a believer in stretching a job by reaching out to learn more about other areas that are peripheral⁷ to the job I'm in. 　　??

　　问：这个公司里什么职位你最感兴趣？?

　　答：我对贵商业房地产公司的高级规划部经理的工作感兴趣。我在商业房地产的多个领域内工作过，包括建筑设计、销售和租赁等行业，也曾与政府部门、代理机构及银行一起共事。我打算把这些知识和工作经验结合起来，在今后几年里担负起规划部的管理工作。

　　如果你熟悉的话，展示你在特定工作前景上的知识；如果你不熟悉的话，把回答转为提问“有着我这样技能的人适合走哪条职业道路”。主要谈及你感兴趣的公司业务或部门，同时，也谈你希望在今后几年里掌握的技巧和迎接的挑战。

I?d like to pull all this background together in the next few years and eventually have project?management responsibility.??
