When they finish quizzing you,interviewers always ask,"So,do you have any questions?"That's your cue to show off your research with queries about the company's competitors,plans for growth,specific products,etc.But some questions can make you seem ill-prepared,overeager or disagreeable.Here,eight commonly asked bloopers.

    面試者在對你提問完畢之后總會問："好，你有什么問題嗎？"你可以詢問公司競爭對手的情況、公司的發展計劃以及獨特的產品等等，借此顯示你已進行過研究。但有些問題會使你顯得準備不足、過于心急或令人生厭。下面是8個常犯的錯誤。

    1.What,exactly,does your company do?Never pose questions that a library search could have answered.

    你們公司究竟做什么？決不要問這種到圖書館查一下就能得到答案的問題。

    2.What does the job pay?Avoid money discussions until the interviewer makes you an offer.

    工資多少？在面試者主動向你提及之前，要避免討論錢的問題。

    3.How many vacation and personal days do you allow?Makes you sound lazy--again,wait for the offer.

    你們有多少假期？這樣問會使你顯得懶惰同樣，應等面試者提。

    4.How long will it take me to get promoted?Try a less pushy version:"Can you describe what my career-advancement track might be like?"

    我需要多久能得到提升？試一試較為委婉的提法："能談談我工作的前景嗎？"

    5.Is that your husband in the picture on your desk?Don't initiate a personal discussion;stick to questions about her career path.

    桌上照片中的人是你的丈夫嗎？不要談論個人問題，應扣住她的事業提問。

    6.What are you going to do about the poor performance of Product X?Reframe the question positively:"What plans do you have to build sales of Product X?"

    某產品銷路不好，你們打算怎么辦？應正面提問："你們計劃怎樣提高某產品的銷售額？"

    7.What's your company's track record on promoting women and minorities?A legitimate question,but interviewers may worry that you'll sue if you don't advance quickly. Instead,check out the company' s reputation through the industry grapevine.

    你們公司提升婦女和少數民族的業績如何？這是個合理的問題，但面試者可能但心你如果晉升不快會起訴他們。還是通過本行業內線來了解公司的聲譽為好。

    8.So,when do I start?A slightly obnoxious quip. Don't invite yourself into the job.

    那我什么時候上班？問得妙，但有點兒招人討厭。不要不請自來。
