Group grilling has long been popular among academics, government agencies and non-profit organizations—sectors that prefer decisions by a consensus of interviewers. As the job market becomes more competitive for people at every level, this practice is spreading to law firms, management consultancies and high-tech businesses. Employers, who now have the luxury of being particular about candidates, see selection committees as an efficient way to measure applicants’ courage under fire.
Some prospects get no warning before they face several screeners simultaneously. "The first time you have one of these interviews, it will throw you off a little bit," cautions Scott Erker, a senior vice president for Development Dimensions International (DDT), a leadership consulting firm in Pittsburgh. Until five years ago, DDI itself rarely used panel interviews for senior promotions—but does so about half the time today, Dr. Erker says. He thinks the approach identifies people who work well in a group setting, a critical skill at a business that "demands team collaboration."
With advance notice and extra preparation, you can impress these extra interviewers. It’s a good idea to get the names, titles and status ranking of panel members. Do this by asking current and former staffers, and checking the Internet. From your sources, try to get a sense of your session’s likely length, number of questions and key issues. You can then assemble a "cheat sheet" of interviewers, draft replies for their possible questions and look relaxed during the meeting.
An executive recruiter might have offered job seekers additional insights—as Gwen L. Feder recently did. The partner-placement director for PeterSan Group, a New York legal search firm, counseled a prospect before his joint interview with three law-firm partners she knows well. She described each partner’s interaction with colleagues and their expectations of the prospect The candidate "made a great impression" and remained in the ninning, she recalled.
To alleviate the stiff formality that tends to come with panel interviews, "show how friendly and important you are," recommends Ruth Haag, a management consultant and CEO of Haag Environmental, a hazardous-waste cleanup business in Sandusky, Ohio. "Shake everybody’s hand. Look everybody in the eye. And sell yourself really hard."
You should add colorful anecdotes about your experience with perceptive questions about the vacancy. The strategy "puts you on conversational terms with your interviewers, and also gives you a much-needed breather between the questions thrown your way," Mr. Sathe suggests.
Sit where you can maintain eye contact throughout the room without staring toward a bright window. Otherwise, "your eyes will be partly closed due to the light and you will look angry," notes Marilyn Machlowitz, a New York recruiter.
You also should closely monitor the group dynamics. How screeners introduce themselves, their initial joke, and also the seating arrangement as well as their speak volumes can indicate who is the most influential one.
Body language offers further clues. M.B.A. student Kara Dyer landed a 2006 summer internship in the Chicago office of management consultancy ZS Associates after a panel interview. "One manager never smiled, said little and sat with his arms crossed," she remembers. "I took extra care answering his questions and looked at him a little more than the rest."
[A] says that DDI uses panel interviews for all senior promotions today.
[B] recommends that interviewees should show their friendliness and importance.
[C] took more care answering one interviewer since she got some clues from his body language.
[D] believes that panel interviews make those who work well in a group setting stand out
[E] suggests interviewees add some anecdotes about experience and questions about the vacancy.
[F] counseled a job seeker before his joint interview with three law-firm partners she knows well.
[G] suggests interviewees sit where they can make eye contact with everyone in the room.
Kara Dyer
选项
答案
C
解析
Kara Dyer出现在最后一段。该段主要强调肢体语言的重要性,并通过Kara Dyer的例子来说明。Kara Dyer回忆当时面试的场景:有一位经理非常严肃,很少说话,双臂交叉在胸前坐在那里,她回答他的问题时会更小心一些,注视他的时间也多一些。C项的took more care与原文的took extra care同义,而his body language则是对原文never smiled,said little and sat with his arms crossed的概括,正是这些肢体动作,提示了Kara Dyer在回答这位面试官时要更加小心,C中的got some clues表达了这一逻辑关系,故确定C为正确答案。
