Trying to Memorize Solutions
背答案
Quality beats quantity Try to struggle through and solve questions yourself; don’t flip di-rectly to the solutions when you get stuck Memorizing how to solve specific problem isn’tgoing to help you much in an interview Real preparation is about learning how to approachnew problems
质量胜于数量。通过自己的努力去解题;不要一碰到不会的就直接翻答案。直接背答案的话在面试的时候对你帮助真不太大。准备面试的目的不是去背答案,而是学会解决新问题的方法。
Talking Too Much
话太多
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve asked candidates a simple question like “what was thehardest bug on Project Pod?”, only to have them ramble on and on about things I don’t understand Five minutes later, when they finally come up for air, I’ve learned nothing - exceptthat they’re a poor communicator When asked a question, break your answer into three parts (Situation / Action / Response, Issue 1 / Issue 2 / Issue 3, etc) and speak for just a couple sentences about each If I want more details, I’ll ask!
问了应聘者一个简单的问题,例如“这个项目中最棘手的bug是什么?”,结果他唧唧歪歪唧唧歪歪半天也没有说到重点,我却雾水什么都没听懂,最后只能得出结论:这个人的沟通能力有问题。这样的情况都不知道遇到多少次了。在面试时回答问题前心中最好能有个提纲(情形-行动-结果或者1,2,3点的形式),每点说一两句就够了。如果面试官想知道细节,他们自己会问的。
Talking Too Little
话太少
Psst - let me tell you a secret: I don’t know what’s going on in your head So if you aren’t talk-ing, I don’t know what you’re thinking If you don’t talk for a long time, I’ll assume that youaren’t making any progress Speak up often, and try to talk your way through a solution This shows your interviewer that you’re tackling the problem and aren’t stuck And it lets them guide you when you get off-track, helping you get to the answer faster And it shows yourawesome communication skills What’s not to love?
嗯,告诉你,我是永远猜不到你脑袋里面在想什么的。在面试的时候如果你不开口说话,我就不知道你在想什么。如果你一直不说话,我就会简单认为你卡壳了。多开口说话,在解题过程中就多讲讲你的想法。这样面试官才能知道你是在解题而不是发呆。而且如果你的思路有问题,面试官还能根据你说的给你些提示。此外多和面试官交流,他们会认为你的沟通能力还不错,何乐而不为呢?
