Job Interview Tips
有讀者詢問有些求職專家建議在見工面試時，不應過於自大或誇張，以免令面試官覺得你自滿或言過其實。相反的一派則認為要表現出自信，才可留給對方積極正面的印象。究竟我們應該怎樣取捨呢？
筆者覺得這是一個非常好的問題，也是面試的重要策略( interview strategy )。首先，我們要認清見工面試的目標是得到這份工作，並不是要和對方辯論，取得勝利，而是要說服面試官你是擔任這份工作的最佳人選( the best candidate )。因此，工作的性質和要求( nature and requirements of the job )至為關鍵。
列舉事實，證明論點例如工作要求具備流利英語，你可以說：‘I am good at English and I’ve won the prizes in many English speech contests.’這是自信的表現，也用了事實來證明。最好能結合工作要求：‘And so, I believe I can handle the requests from customers who speak English.’
