面試技巧：如何回答“你爲何離開上一份工作？”

It is a shame that so many job interviewers treat a job interview as an interrogation rather than the friendly and human conversation it should be.

有一件很遺憾的事情，許多面試官都把面試當作盤問求職者的過程，而不是一次友好而人性化的對話。

Poorly-trained interviewers not only ask intrusive and inappropriate questions of job-seekers but they also have a knack for making every question sound like an accusation.

有一些沒有經過專業訓練的面試官會提出冒犯他人或不得體的問題，甚至還會利用技巧使得每一個問題聽起來像是一次責難。

That's one reason why job-seekers worry about the best way to answer the interview question "Why did you leave your last job?"

因此，這也是其中一個讓許多求職者很擔心無法很好地回答“你爲什麼辭掉你上一份工作？”這個問題的原因。

They may feel that they have to defend themselves against the presumption that they did something terrible at their last job that led them to be banished forever!

他們可能會認爲，他們有必要爲自己辯護，以免面試官誤以爲他們在上一份工作做了些什麼糟糕的事情導致永遠被拒之門外！

If you were laid off or terminated from your last job, you might really sweat the question "Why did you leave your last job?" but you don't need to. You never need to tell an interviewer if you were fired.

如果你被上一家公司解僱或終止合作了，那麼你可能真的會爲這個問題而汗顏：“你爲何離開上一份工作？”，不過你真的沒有必要擔心。你永遠都不必告訴面試官你被解僱的實情。

Here are 10 ways to answer the question "Why did you leave your last job?"
