问题                     Five Interviewing Fundamentals
    The most important thing to find out when you interview someone is if you like the person. You can teach someone to be competent in the skills you need, but you can’t teach someone to have an appealing personality. No matter what the person talks about for thirty minutes—really, much fewer than thirty—you can figure out if you like them.
    1. Learn how to conduct an interview.
    You need to understand what is driving the interviewer and how he or she is thinking. So know enough about the interview process to put yourself in your counterpart’s shoes. If the person is bad at interviewing, you can run the show. If the person is good, you have to figure out how to meet their agenda, make your points, and still be likeable.
    2. Learn from other people’s mistakes.
    The best way to see people making errors in interviews is to interview them yourself. But you can also read about other people’s interviewing incompetence. Jobaloo. com shows how candidates misread a seemingly innocuous question. And CareerBuilder. com lists some examples of extremely bad judgment.
    3. Know your agenda.
    What is the image you are trying to convey in the interview? Match that to the kind of job you are trying to land. You should have three points about yourself that you aim to get across in the interview. Before I became a full-time writer, mine were: great at executing a plan, a manager who everyone loves to work for, very reliable. I wanted those points to come across because I wanted to be hired to a position where I would have a lot of responsibility to execute a visionary plan and manage a large team.
    4. Practise.
    You can find lots of lists about how to interview well. Take a look at them and you’ll notice that they are all about practising: Avoid too much information, cut the puffy stuff, know your strengths and weaknesses. These are all things you can practise. If you think you can wing it in an interview, you’re wrong. There are no questions that cannot benefit from preparation, so any question you look unprepared for makes you look clueless about the interview process at best and lazy at worst.
    5. Be comfortable with silence.
    People who can remain calm during silence look powerful and comfortable with themselves. People who have to fill silence end up saying stupid things. Part of your interview practice should be to sit, saying nothing, so you are comfortable when that happens in an interview.
Which is Not correct concerning the author’s three points mentioned in the article?
选项 A、They are mentioned to explain how you can project a favorable image in an interview.
B、He expressed these points when he managed a large group of people.
C、He used these points to help with his interview.
答案B
解析 题干意为：文中关于作者的三个要点的叙述哪一个不正确?A项意为：提及此三点的目的是为了说明你怎样在面试中留下好印象，B项意为：他在管理一大组员工时表述了这三点，C项意为：这三点曾帮他应对面试。原文第七段第一行提到：“面试者需要使自己在面试中表现出来的形象与想要获得的工作相匹配，他们需要在面试中传达三个要点。”随后作者提到自己的例子，这些都是用来说明面试者可以通过阐明三个要点的方式在面试中留下与所聘职位相匹配的好印象，故A项正确。由作者自己的例子可知，他是在应聘管理一个大的团队的时候表述他的三个要点的，所以C项正确，而B项与此有出入，不正确，故答案为B。
