Jobinterviews;Application 面试;申请; Are You Smart Enough to Work at Google? ByWilliam Poundstone. 《你是否聪明过人能进谷歌》威廉庞德斯通。 Whom to hire is one of the great problemsorganisation-man faces. If he gets it wrong he maybe forced to share a confined space for anindefinite period with someone deficient in wit,aptitude and hygiene, with nothing but a flimsypartition for protection. If he gets it wrong in a different way, tomorrow he may be fired bytoday s meek applicant. Each industry has its own method for hiring: Britain s spy servicesometimes physically roughs-up new recruits to see how much they enjoy that sort of thing.Candidates for more everyday roles within the civil service are given a bulging in-tray filledwith documents of varying importance, and not enough time to clear it. 公司管理人员需要处理的一大难题是应该聘请哪些人。请的人不对,他只得在很长时期内与一个头脑迟钝、天赋不高又不怎么讲究卫生的人共同工作在一个有限的空间,中间只隔了一个薄薄的隔板。如果选错人,今后他亦有可能被今天温顺的求职者炒掉。每个行业自有一套招人的妙招:英国情报组织有时候要在身体上折磨新成员,看看他是否乐在其中。申请普通公务员工作的人会拿到一个文件篮,塞的文件都要掉下来了,里面的文件重要性不尽相同,他们要在很短的时间里整理好文件。 |
