Question

在电话里她向我详细说明了资料的次序。最后，我设法避免了有可能花费更多的工作时间，并且可能耽搁邮寄时间的错误，更别提一些令人头痛的事情。

虽然这个例子听似很琐碎，但却证明了应聘者的成熟和理性处理工作问题的能力。面试官想弄清楚你是否知道仅仅把工作完成是不够的。你的回答应该表现出你随机应变的能力和积极主动的特质。

Q:Give an example of a time when you were asked to accomplish a task but werent given enough information. How did you resolve this problem.

A:At my last internship, my supervisor, an account executive, asked me to assemble five hundred press kits for a mailing. I wasn't sure in what order the pages and press releases should go, but my supervisor had already left for a client meeting. Afraid of putting the information together in the wrong order, I managed to track down her cellphone number and called her in her car. She explained the order of the materials over the phone, and in the end I managed to prevent a mistake that would have cost hours of work and a delay in the mailingnot to mention a few headaches.
