欧洲老外boss面试经历。。。流水帐，大家将就着看吧已有3人参与

趁着5.1假期拖了好久想写的电话面试经历。本来想给多点具体信息各位虫友，没想到就写成流水帐了，大家将就着看吧。 首先说说面试前的情况 1月下旬，当时已经投了70多封到米国，有25%的回复，绝大多数都说没钱位，仅有的几个要了推荐信的也是没有进一步动作。思前想后打算试试欧洲有没有机会。然后陆续投了10几封到英国德国法国和瑞士的老板们。过了两个星期之后 （2月下旬），现在面试的这位boss回信说“Thank you for your enquiry about post-doctoral research. At present I do not have any open positions at （英国某校）. Are you eligible to apply for any scholarships for post-doctoral study?” 因为这个老板是我投同一个系另一个boss时顺便看到的，也没多了解其background。马上用google查，发现原来这位boss在德国还有lab，于是我回了封信说要不我和你申红包or居里？ 没想到这boss立马就回我said，好啊，不过你究竟想去英国还是德国呢？ 我心想“kao”，你都说英国没open posistion咯 当然去德国啦。而且本人也对德国比较向往。于是就立马跟boss说“德国”。 又过了两天，这回轮到boss的secretary来信了 “thank you very much for your application for a postdoctoral position in the group of Prof. Dr. XX.Prof. XX would like to give you the opportunity to explain your interest in a position in her group in more detail at the phone. Would you be available for a phone interview this Friday, 8 March at 9:00 AM (London time = GMT)? ” 当时候都Wednesday了，我想这boss不是想搞我个措手不及吧，于是我使出缓兵之计，回到说“这周有事没空，要不下周？” secretary立马回我“thank you very much for your prompt reply. I understand that you are not available this week. I need to get contact to some colleagues first if there is a time slot available next week. I will get back to you soon with a suggestion. Please be patient.” 然后一天之后“thank you for your patience. My new suggestion for a phone interview with Prof. Dr. xx is Tuesday, 12 March 10:00 AM in Germany (GMT+1). 还有5天足够我好好准备面试咯，就一口答应咯。 步入正题 这里要感谢各位虫友分享的面经，根据虫友的经验我准备了以下7个。 1. Simply introduce myself. 2. Tell your doctoral work? 3. Tell one work that I most satisfied with. 4. Several question about the details of work. 5. Describe the future plan. / What are your long term career goals? 6. What is it that you are hoping to learn in my laboratory? 7. Which project do I most like 同时根据boss的情况准备了几个小问题。 星期二，下午5点05分，电话来了。 寒碜了几句后就开始入正题： 1. why do you want to come here? 2. what do you like within our researches? 3. Introduce your experiments (以下若干个小问题, 为什么要做这个；你的这个文章投 稿没等等) 4. What is your favorvite paper of ours? Why? 5. Why choose postdoc abroad? Did you attended conferences abroad? 6. Your questiones. （我就问了你研究的课题；如果我到你们lab的话如何分配工作；我过去的话要准备啥？等等） 这几个问题聊得boss都笑了几次，我看反应是应该ok了。然后大概聊了总共半个小时。say good bye。 面完下来感觉面试良好，想了一下除了准备充足外，boss 讲的一口非常纯正的英国音和略慢的语速也使得我基本能catch到point。 于是放心吃完晚饭后，就回复boss说 “Thank you for your calling. You are so nice, and I was very happy to talk with you. I am going to prepare for the fellowship application. Which fellowship (Humboldt Foundation or Marie Curie) is more suitable to me? Personally, I prefer to Humboldt fellowship.” boss也是立马回复“Good tohear from you. I think the Humboldt is fine, but I would apply for more than one fellowship - they are qutie competitive. We have someone in the Institute who can help with this, so when you hve a first draft of your applications, let me have them and I will look at them and also show them to my colleague for advice.” 然后就写到这了，现在正在努力红包计划的修改中。。。  [ Last edited by hinhin on 2013-5-1 at 20:31 ] |
