建立良好的求职第一印象

要想建立良好的第一印象，面试前周密的准备自是必不可少，面试时的表情举止也是至关重要的。接下来，小编给大家准备了建立良好的求职第一印象,欢迎大家参考与借鉴。

一旦你见到了有权利决定是否雇用你的人，让他对你有个好印象非常重要。So, the first thing to do is to concentrate on making a good first impression. During the first 15 seconds of an interview, an employer will perceive you in two ways, one visual and the other tactile1. You guessed it: Your appearance and your handshake go a long way toward making a good impression.

To make the right first impression and sell yourself in an interview, you must prepare, start at the beginning, and never skip steps. Let's begin, using the job interview as an example.

第一件事就是要了解你要求职的这家公司。Begin researching a company when you begin requesting interviews.

Use a company's Web site, information from network contacts, or a library to get to know your interviewer. Understand what that company does, and try to get to know its culture, or personality. Any information, however trivial, may be used to your advantage during the interview.

着装一定要得体。Your "interview suit" should be appropriate for the company and industry, and you should prepare to dress to sell well in advance of your interviews. If you aren't sure how "dressy" or how "casual" would be acceptable, go to the company and observe the employees, or simply just ask. It's perfectly2 acceptable for you to ask the person who arranges your interview about dress codes. It shows that you want to make the right impression. Remember that less is best with makeup3, jewelry4, and cologne, and the interview is not the place to make fashion statements. You don't have to spend a fortune on suitable interview outfits5, but you should plan ahead and get comfortable with your new clothes before the interview.

一个小记事本可以帮你大忙。Keep accurate records. Record the date and time of each interview and take your calendar to your interviews, along with a few extra copies of your resume, copies of your references, a note pad, and a pen that works. As soon as your interview is over, record when you intend to follow up, or the date of a second interview.

一定要对面试的时间、地点有清楚的了解，要提前弄清楚怎样到达目的地。A dry run (排练，此处意为探路) before the interview is a good idea. Arrive ten minutes early. Never be barely on time for an interview. Walk into the office ten minutes early. You will probably have to complete an employment application, so allow time. Good first impressions don't start by being late.

不要表现出坐立不安和忙乱。If asked to wait for your interviewer, do so patiently. Don't chew gum, smoke, or accept a soft drink or coffee. Sit quietly and mentally rehearse your interview agenda.

提前周密的准备可以让你更加从容的应对面试的过程，然而要建立良好的第一印象，还要注意面试时候的表情和举止，我们下次再来关注一下面试时应注意的事项。

一定要微笑，握手要有力，真诚地看着对方的眼睛。When you are called for your interview, greet your interviewer with a smile and a firm handshake. Allow yourself to be directed to his office and wait to be offered a seat. Keep your posture1 erect2 without being stiff, and sit with your legs uncrossed. Be comfortable, but don't slump3 down in your seat, don't accept refreshments4, and do not touch anything on the interviewer's desk.

时时留心。During the "small talk," look around the office. Are there trophies5 or pictures that suggest your interviewer's interest in sports? Are there family pictures and photo opts6 with prominent people? Be observant without being obvious-you never know when something you observe may be able to be used productively during the interview.

在面试中要保持积极主动。The "small talk" will be limited and your interviewer will begin. You should know why you are there and what you have to offer. Your agenda is to sell your strengths and get hired, so you must be alert to opportunities to get your points made. You must concentrate on what your interviewer is saying and the kinds of questions being asked. The interviewer is leading, but you can control the direction of an interview by having a prepared agenda and concentrating on opportunities to slide your selling points into the conversation.

听清楚问题再回答，回答问题的时候要准确、恰到好处，不要回答地太长、太罗嗦。 If you're asked if it's raining, don't describe the dark clouds. Listen to the question and address the question. Interviewers don't like to hear evasive answers (含糊其词的答案). If you don't know the answer to a question, say so, and tell your interviewer you will get the information for them in the next day or two.

准备好你要问的问题。You will probably be asked if you have any questions. If you prepared well, you should have some questions ready, like who your supervisor7 would be if you're hired, where your work station would be, would there be regular performance reviews, and what would be the next promotion8 level.

注意从每一次面试中吸取经验。Never leave an interview empty-handed. When your interview ends, make sure you know your interviewer's name, title, and mailing address, and ask what happens next. Will there be a second interview, and if so, who will be conducting it and when will it take place? Do you have a hiring timetable? Would it be all right to follow up in a few days? Is there any more information that would help you make a favorable decision? If you want this job and feel you are a good match, say so. Let your interviewer know you're ready to accept and exactly when you would be available to report to work. Be assertive9 without being obnoxious10. Close your sale.

面试后要记得给你的面试官写封感谢信。Mail or hand deliver your thank-you note within 24-hours of your interview-this is a must! A hand-written thank-you note on plain paper is fine. Make it brief and courteous11. Thank your interviewer for the time and interest, and if you want the job, say so again. Then make plans to follow up on your interview, and continue your job search activity. Your sale is never completed until a start date has been offered.
