真实故事:小编之前被Deloitte邀请到Final Round,有和几个面试官吃饭的机会(俗称Pre-interview diner)。

当每个人都只点了一个汉堡的时候,小编点了一盘最贵的大龙虾,开心的吃了起来。当别人都在聊天聊地聊远方的的时候,我却半句都插不上话,然后就没有然后了...

总括而言,”pre-interview dinner” 其实是interview为主,dinner为次。其实关于这种交际形式的面试环节,“面试官”主要还是靠感觉来判断,所以你只要在他们面前表现professional,让他们觉得跟你沟通很舒服,别显得太过拘谨,你的offer 就很容易拿到了。

Don't:

  • 活动后发送thank you email/follow up email给每位接触过的人,内容上提及一些让对方能想起在活动上跟你进行过的对话,并且加插你的一些个人亮点,深化他对你的印象;如果晚餐活动在面试前一个晚上,可以等到面试过后再发。
  • 四大尤其是audit,很注重teamwork,所以不要太过进取或故意炫耀自己有多厉害,尽量展示你乐意跟其他人交流、合作、互相帮忙的一面
