一些准备BQ (behavioral questions)的资源,附samples
来自其他站点
经历3个月的挣扎，职场小白最近刚刚跳槽成功，总结了一些有助于准备BQ的资源。
我自己准备BQ的思路一般是
-仔细读JD，总结出来职位要求的soft skills (communication, time management, teamwork, attention to detail, analytical thinking, prioritizing, problem solving, etc)
-每个skill下面列出2个sample question (不需要太多因为基本换汤不换药)
-去Google / YouTube 搜sample answer (我比较喜欢后者因为有视频可以模仿说话的语调)
-把自己工作 / 在学校碰到的scenario揉进sample answer（STAR模型，介绍在这indeed.com）
-所有的问题和答案总结成一个doc，列出key points或者详细的回答-Practice talking through your answers out loud (一定要练熟，面试的时候不要让面试官听起来你在背答案）

Where Do You See Yourself in 5 Years? - Ideal Sample Answer (这个和我之前找的sample answer都不太一样，但是我觉得说的很有道理，这一波跳槽都用的这个)
youtube.com
- Work It Daily: 看的第二多的博主，找工作期间我每天都会去看看，找找感觉，下面这个视频对我最有用
8 Smart Questions To Ask Hiring Managers In A Job Interview (提出了4C原则：connect，culture，challenges，close，每个下面是2个sample questions)

- Self Made Millennial：这个风格博主讲话很夸张，讲的内容基本和前两个博主一样，但是视频做的比较有意思，很生动。我看她的视频主要是想被她的那种energy感染一下，用到面试里。但是听多了脑袋会有点疼。。。
Tips:
自信，自信，既然被捞起来了就说明有一些skills被HR看上了，这个时候present真实的自己就行了；
把我们能control的部分准备好，剩下不能control的就不要想太多了。

Tips:
- 我之前准备BQ的时候还参考了地里面这个帖子instant.1point3acres.cn；
- 尽量让BQ成为一个two-way的conversation；
- 个人感觉面试的时候心态非常重要：
自信，自信，既然被捞起来了就说明有一些skills被HR看上了，这个时候present真实的自己就行了；
把我们能control的部分准备好，剩下不能control的就不要想太多了。
