(单词翻译:单击)

   When they finish quizzing you,interviewers always ask, "So, do you haveany questions?" That's your cue to show off your research with queries1 about the company's competitors, plans for growth, specific products,etc. But some questions can make you seem ill-prepared, overeager ordisagreeable. Here are eight commonly asked bloopers。

  1. What, exactly, does your company do?
  Never pose questions that a library search could have answered。
  2. What does the job pay?
  Avoid money discussions until the interviewer makes you an offer。
  3. How many vacation and personal days do you allow?
  Makes you sound lazy--again, wait for the offer。
  4. How long will it take me to get promoted?
  Try a less pushy2 version: "Can you describe what my career advancement3 track might be like?"
