如何补救今早interview时出现的纰漏

leeciao · 发表于 2003-9-25 10:55:00

今天早晨还没到7点就赶到波特慢酒店去参加一个昨天MBA Fair里BS的interview.
有几个问题请教：

1，其实昨天这位女士并不想给我interview,因为她的时间安排很紧，我当时觉得interview对我太重要了，且想操练一把，就不断的push她，后来她没办法了，只好约了今早7点。
Q：不知老外对这种“逼”会不会很反感？

2，我昨晚和今早面试时我都说我是公司的assisant consultant，可我给的名片上分明的注明我是公司的sales mgr.；（并且我说我是 assisant consultant时，说得结结巴巴，我自己都觉得很假。）
Q: 这种算是cheating？会不会很严重？我现在该如何做弥补？需要特意写封信去解释吗？会有欲盖弥彰之嫌吗？

3，面试时她向我要RESUME，我告诉她，没做好。（其实真是情况是我还没有开始写这所学校的essay。）
Q: 不良影响有多大？听说老外非常重视interview时一定要有resume在手。

谢谢！！！

补充：她问了我几个问题：
1，我的career goal
2, why this bs
3,我工作中遇到的最困难的事
4，是否有国际人际交往经验？
5，觉得与不同文化交往的人最重要的是什么？

大约20～25M

Don't feel bad of your interview, no one can judge the result of an interview. You can send a thank you e-mail to your interviewer, give her your polished answers to the interview questions, attach your resume. Find an excuse to explain why you haven't finished your resume, things as you have just finished your GMAT test, or you think it's better to make things perfert than giving her an unsatified resume.

1. That's O.K. Adcoms usually are very professional. If they agree to interview you, that should be fine;

2. That's a tough call. If you make an excuse, you either sound unprofessional, or she still felt doubtful for your story;

3. If you insisted the interview, but hadn't prepared resume, that sounds odd to her. At least you're not serious about her school.

Bottom line, what you've done is done. Interivew is just one factor in the formula. I will suggest you just write a warmful 'Thank-you' card to her, mixed with some twist of compliment, hopefully she will buy it.

以下是引用leeciao在2003-9-25 10:55:00的发言：

Leeciao, congratulations on your earlier actions.

Normally, the adcoms will regard you as an aggressive person, who all b-schools are eager to recruit. So, don't worry about that.

2，我昨晚和今早面试时我都说我是公司的assisant consultant，可我给的名片上分明的注明我是公司的sales mgr.；（并且我说我是 assisant consultant时，说得结结巴巴，我自己都觉得很假。

It's not a big matter. But, what you should learn from this experience is that you MUST keep confidence when explaining question raised by adcoms.

3，面试时她向我要RESUME，我告诉她，没做好。（其实真是情况是我还没有开始写这所学校的essay。）
Q: 不良影响有多大？听说老外非常重视interview时一定要有resume在手。

Yes. You are expected to have your resume at hand, when you conduct interviews. And you can prepare your resume first.

Keep rolling! You know practising makes perfect, for almost everything.

Generally, foreigners dislike to be pushed to much.
You should not attend an interview before you prepare it carefully.

Usually even you provide your resume either online or email to the school. you should prepare a few copies when you attend the interview. Just in case.

Regarding your title, I think it is what you have done matters. Try to focus on what you have actually done in your essays. Adcoms know title does not mean much, and thus can change. but next time, try to be consistent. Considering the competition, avoid any mistakes that Adcom can use as an excuse to reject you.

Please treasure each opportunity you got. If u waste it, then another person loses this opportunity to be interviewed.

the lady is very kind, actually. Don't worry too much. Her title is international admission advior, that means she had lot's of experience with situations like what you experienced.
