Hiring a Winner 招聘赢家
这是TOEIC中的一道阅读题，我们选取此篇文章的目的，除了让读者了解TOEIC，还希望能通过这篇文章揣摩面试官的心态和考核方式，助您一臂之力。
If you're an employer, how many times have you had to make a tough decision between two or more qualified candidates?How many times have you made the wrong decision?What a tip that will help you make the right decision without the time consuming pain and agony that often goes with hiring?
Have your applicants write a memo. A memo says it all.It may sound simplistic, but trust me—it works.Have them write a memo that outlines not what your company's problem are, but how they intend to solve them.You'll find out quickly who wants to do what they're told, and who will actually help you solve problems and move forward.
When you're hiring, send an e-mail after your interview that goes something like this：Thanks for meeting with us today, John. It was terrific sharing ideas with you.May I ask you to send me a one-page memo, outlining your thoughts on how you'd approach your role with us, and what you view as the short-term and long-term priorities for our company?I would like to see your way of thinking.
Then see what happens. You'll get insight into the candidate's writing skills, their sense of logic, their listening skills and their understanding of your department's current situation.
如果你是雇主，你有多少次要在两个或多个适当的人选之间做出困难的抉择？有多少次做了错误的决定呢？有什么秘诀能帮助你做出正确的决定，而不用经受招聘人时耗时的痛苦与折磨吗？
先让你的应聘者写一份便笺。便笺能透露出一切。听起来很简单，但相信我，这一招确实有效。要他们写一份便笺，不是要他们概述公司的问题，而是他们打算如何解决这些问题。你很快就会发现谁是听命行事的人，谁是真正会帮你解决问题并帮助公司往前迈进的人。
当招聘时，在面试结束后发一封如下的电子邮件：“谢谢你今日与我们会面，约翰。能与你分享想法真的很棒。我想请你寄一页便笺给我，概述你会在我们公司扮演何种角色，以及你认为本公司短期及长期优先顺序事项为何？我想看看你的想法。”
然后就看事情怎么演变，你会看到应聘者的写作技巧、逻辑思考能力、倾听能力，以及他们对你这个部门目前状况的了解。
