Personality Plus

  
"How would you describe your personality?"
  
On the surface this appears to be a straightforward question, but if you answer too hastily, you may end up sounding like every other candidate. You must think about what makes you unique and how you can make yourself stand out and be remembered.
  
Interviewers ask this question for a couple of reasons: to hear where you place the emphasis in your description and to see how quickly and creatively you can think on the spot. Dont give the interviewer the same answers everybody else gives. Think about new ways to get your message across and sell yourself.
  
Spice Up Your Answers
  
Take a look at these typical answers and how you can make them more unique.
  
Typical: "I am a high-energy person." This answer needs more detail.
  
Unique: "I am energized by challenges and problems."
  
Typical: "Im a hard worker." This is the most common phrase used. It shows no imagination.
  
Unique: "I do whatever it takes to get the job done, sometimes working 10-hour days."
  
Typical: "I am a quick learner." This is an overused phrase that has lost its effectiveness.
  
Unique: "I can hit the ground running and come up to speed faster than anyone I know."
  
Typical: "Im analytical." This is a lackluster answer that doesnt reveal much.
  
Unique: "Im a wiz at analyzing data and transforming it into useful information."
  
Typical: "Im very organized." This answer is understated.
  
Unique: "I am a person who can bring order to chaos."
  
Typical: "Im reliable." This answer needs more information to get the point across.
  
Unique: "I pride myself on my record of never missing deadlines."
  
Typical: "Im good with customers." The answer needs clarification.
  
Unique: "I build great relationships with customers; they always ask for me."
  
Scripting Exercise
  
Describing your personality is like writing ads for a product. What makes you unique? Are you the type of person who would fit into this organization? Your job is to convince your interviewer that you have the perfect personality for the position.
  
Make a list of personality traits that describe you. Determine the qualities you would like the interviewer to remember after the interview. Incorporate some of the same words used in the job posting.
  
For example, if the job listing reads: "Must have five or more years experience managing a diverse population of employees," you might say to the interviewer:
  
"I am a person who values other peoples qualities and contributions. My employees would tell you that I am a fair manager who listens when they have something to say."
  
The more specific you are with your answer, the better your chances of leaving a lasting impression. Interviewers talk to several candidates in a single day. What will make you memorable?
  

让你的个性更鲜明

  
  “请描述一下你的个性。”
  
  这问题表面上好像很简单。但是如果你不假思索,你的回答就可能会跟别人撞车。你得思考“什么会让你独具特色”,“如何让你锋芒毕露”,以及“怎样让别人记住你”。
  
  面试官之所以有此一问,不外乎以下几个目的∶想听听在描述中你的重点在哪;想看看你的临场发挥,看你如何创造性地而又敏捷地思考问题。切勿人云亦云。另辟蹊径,让别人了解你,把你自己推销出去。
  
  让你的回答更有味道
  
  看看下面这些普通的回答,想想怎样使其更具特色。
  
  普通∶“我精力充沛。”这个回答需要充实。
  
  特别∶“挑战和难题,让我更加精力充沛。”
  
  普通∶“我工作勤奋。”老生常谈,毫无想象力可言。
  
  特别∶“无论如何,我都要完成工作,有时甚至一天要工作十小时。”
  
  普通∶“我学习能力强。”这话都说烂了,一点效果都没有了。
  
  特别∶“我能马上付诸行动,速度之快,无人能及。”
  
  普通∶“我分析能力很强。”味同嚼蜡,内容空泛。
  
  特别∶“在分析资料并将之转化为有用信息方面,我是个天才。”
  
  普通∶“我做事很有条理。”这话有些轻描淡写。
  
  特别∶“我可以化‘乱七八糟’为‘井井有条’。”
  
  普通∶“我很可靠。”要说明问题,回答需要充实。
  
  特别∶“我可以自豪地说,我的记录中从没有出现过‘过期’一词。”
  
  普通∶“我同顾客关系良好。”这话还能说得更清楚些。
  
  特别∶“我同顾客建立了良好的关系。遇到问题时,他们总是求助于我。”
  
  书面练习
  
  描述个性就如同写产品广告。什么让你独具特色?你是适合这个公司的人选吗?你要做的就是让面试官相信,工作岗位中需要的个性你全都有。
  
  为你的个人品质列一张表。看看面试时你想将哪些品质印入面试官的脑海。招聘广告中用了哪些词,你就用哪些。
  
  比如,如果工作要求上说∶“需五年以上的多类职工管理经验”,你就可以对面试官这样说:
  
  “我这个人,比较重视他人的品质和贡献。我的员工会告诉你,我是个公平的管理者,他们有所倾诉时我总会倾听。”
  
  你回答得越具体,你就越有可能留下一个持久的印象。面试官一天要面试好多人,什么能让他对你印象深刻呢?
