In reality, many interviewers are inexperienced, unskilled, and otherwise unable to conduct effective interviews. But if handled correctly, encountering a bad interviewer doesn't need to derail your interview.

　　事实上，很多面试官都经验不足，缺乏技巧，要不就不足以展开高效的面试。不过，如果应聘者应对得当的话，面试也不至于离题千里。

　　Here are some of the most common types of bad interviewers you might encounter and how you can effectively navigate each.

　　下面是一些最常见的不给力的面试官类型，还有一些小贴士助你有效应对。

　　1.The no-questions interviewer

　　“没问题”型面试官

　　This interviewer talks on and on about his/her job, his/her professional background, the company's culture, but barely asks you any questions about yourself. This might seem like an easy interview, but in fact it can be an especially tricky one, because it leaves you without opportunities to demonstrate that you'd excel at the job.

　　这类型的面试官会滔滔不绝地谈自己的工作、职业背景、公司文化，但是很少向你提一些与你自己有关的问题。这样的面试看起来很轻松，但是却暗藏玄机，因为这种情况下，你就没有机会向面试官展示你有多适合这份工作了。

　　What to do:

　　应对方法：

　　Steer the conversation back to the job opening and your qualifications. Say something like, “Would it be OK to take a minute and lead you through my professional background? I think it'll tie in with what you were just saying about the job.”

　　把面试谈话引导回来，谈谈与应聘职位和你的资质有关的话题。比如说，“我们能不能花点时间谈谈我的专业背景?我觉得这与您刚才说的工作正相关。”

　　2.The unprepared interviewer

　　“无准备”型面试官

　　It's clear that he/she hasn't read your resume and has no familiarity with your background.

　　很明显，他/她没有看过你的简历，对你的背景也不熟悉。

　　What to do:

　　应对方法：

　　Don't show you're annoyed by the lack of preparation, even if you are. Instead, offer to tell this interviewer about yourself. Say something like, “I'd love to tell you about my background and talk about some of the ways I think this job might be a great fit.”

　　即使你很生气也不要表现出来。相反，你可以向面试官介绍一下你自己。你可以这么说，“我很乐意告诉您我的专业背景，而且我觉得我在以下几个方面非常适合这份工作。”

　　3.The distracted interviewer

　　“分心”型面试官

　　He/she is checking the email, answering texts, and generally doing everything but engaging directly with you.

　　面试官在查收邮件、写短信，总之，他/她什么都做，就是不专心给你面试。

　　What to do:

　　应对方法：

　　Be as friendly as possible, and try to block out the lack of attention. But if the interruptions get really bad, you can nicely ask, “Is this still a good time for us to meet? I'd be glad to reschedule if it's more convenient。”

　　尽量表现得友好一些，试着能让面试官集中注意力。不过，如果打断面试的因素实在太多，那你可以善意地问一句，“我们今天面试的时间还合适吗?如果其他时间更合适的话，我很乐意重新与您约时间面谈。”

　　4.The inept interviewer

　　“不着重点”型面试官

　　His/her questions bear little relation to the work you'd be doing on the job. This is the type who uses questions like “If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?” and “What would I find in your refrigerator right now?”

　　这类面试官会问一些与你要去面试的工作完全没有关系的问题，比如“如果你是一棵树，你觉得你是什么样的树?”也有可能是“我在你的冰箱里能找到些什么?”

　　What to do:

　　应对方法：

　　Answer the questions, but then steer the conversation back to what's really important. Weave examples of your professional achievements into the conversation, ask questions about the job itself and the challenges the team is facing, and then talk about how you'd approach those challenges. In other words, do the interviewer's job for him or her.

　　先回答问题，再把谈话引向真正重要的内容。把你在工作中所取得的成绩引入谈话中，问一些与应聘工作相关的问题、团队正在面临的挑战以及你如何解决这些挑战的方法。换句话说，你要做面试官要做的工作。

　　5.The hostile interviewer

　　“敌对”型面试官

　　Perhaps the worst type of interviewer is those who are rude or outright hostile—denigrating your qualifications or your answers, or acting bored and dismissive. Interviewers who behave this way are either jerks and/or are inflicting a “stress interview” on you, which is where the interviewer deliberately antagonizes you to find out how you respond to stressful situations.

　　可能，最糟糕的一类面试官就是那种态度粗鲁，敌对型的面试官。他们对你的资质或回答进行诋毁，或者对你表现出乏味和轻视。这类型的面试官可以分成两种情况，种，就是混蛋一个;第二种，可能是在对你进行“压力测试”，面试官故意表现出敌对情绪，从而来观察你是如何应对压力的。

　　What to do:

　　应对方法：

　　Don't get flustered. Remember that the interviewer's attitude likely isn't about you, and continue to answer questions calmly and with confidence.

　　别慌张。记住，面试官的态度可能与你无关，继续回答问题，保持沉着自信。

　　As always, remember that interviews are a two-way street. If something smells bad in an interview, that's something you can use in making an employment decision, too.

　　始终记住，面试是双向的。如果你在面试中觉得有什么不满意的地方，你也可以利用面试来为自己要不要去这个单位工作来做个判断。
