I used to be a Job Interviewer.I have interviewed thousands of college graduates around the country.Believe it or not,my job was not to giveout jobs.In fact,my job was to give turndowns.（注：turndown拒绝） IfI couldn't find any reason to turn you down.you'd earn a second interview and maybe a job offer.I know this sounds negative.So what?The whole job search process is a pretty negative business.（Remember,though,that 99 rejects and one outstanding（注：outstanding突出的，出色的） job offer constitutes（注：constitute构成） a successful jobcampaign（注：campaign有计划的活动） for you.）
On average,I turned down 11 out of 12 applicants.The following are some great interview questions,that have generated hundreds of turndowns.I've used them all.
1.What is your greatest weakness?
When an interviewer asks this,he or she is merely digging for a reason to turn you down.Applicants can be so accommodating.（注：accommodating随声附和的） "The pressure of tests causes me to freeze up（注：freeze up不能正常发挥）." "I am somewhat of a procrastinator.（注：procrastinator拖沓者）" Many job candidates will tell the interviewer about a failing or weakness that generates a sure turndown.Here's what you should say instead:"I am sometimes too sensitive to people.""Sometimes I'm impatient with others whose standards are not as high as mine.""I have troubleseparating work with play."Now can I turn you down because you are:(a) sensitive? (b) impatient with sloppy（注：sloppy马虎的） work?(c) workaholic（注：workaholic
工作狂）?
2.What do you think you'll be doing in 10 years?
I love this question because under the guise（注：guise[gaiz]掩饰）of 10 years away,job candidates talk about what they really want to do and interviewees show their true colors.Here's a response that will not generate a turndown:"It's difficult for any of us to know where we will be in 10 years,but I do have plans.First of all,I want to learn your business from the ground up. Long term,I hope to be in a position of greater responsibility that is mutually（注：mutually共同地）beneficial to the company and to myself."
3.How would you evaluate（注：evaluate评价） your last boss?
Any negative about a prior employer,is an absolute turndown immediately.Never bad-mouth（注：bad-mouth诋毁）a former employer,co-worker or boss Never.
4.What is your greatest strength？
The employer is fishing for information here.He or she is giving you the opportunity to prove that you offer the most important prerequisite（注：prerequisite
先决条件） for this specific job.Always answer this question as if the recruiter（注：recruiter招聘者） really said,"Prove to me that you have what it takes for this job."
5.I notice that your summer jobs were not your field.
The recruiter may be worried that you are vocationally immature（注：immature不成熟的） or that you don't really know what it is like to fill a job.If you worked as say（注：say比如说，假设，假定） a lifeguard he or she may be concerned about your lack of drive and ambition.Here's what to say:"My working as a lifeguard often raises questions because employers picture（注：picture想象） an easy summer on the beach.Actually,my experience as a guard was a valuable leadership training ground.I was promoted to supervisor（注：supervisor队长） of 10 lifeguards and was responsible for the safety of 5,000 people every day."
6.Tell me about yourself.
This employer snare（注：snare圈套） is about as wide open as it gets.The question is one notch（注：notch等级）above "Talk".You should answer this question with information that is at the very least tangential（注：tangential不相关的） to the company and its product or service.Remember,the interviewer is gathering information.The fact that you have two sisters who are Siamese twins（注：Siamese
twins［医］暹罗孪生子，联体双胎） is certainly interesting but not the slightest bit relevant.On the other hand,if you've been supporting your family or you have hobbies related to the field,jabber（注：jabber急促而不清地说话，这里指闲聊） on.The job search process is unfair.Those who achieve the best interview ratings get the best offers,often beating those better qualified.It happens all the time.If you believe that your wit,intelligence ,good looks and diploma are the ticket,you are doomed to fail.Your competi,tion will always be better in those categories（注：category种类）.Job search is not a game.It is the most important project you will ever undertake.
