Question

答：有一次，我们有机会从一家解散了的公司手中购买廉价运输设备。尽管我们知道五年后要对分布的设备进行大检修，但我觉得花钱购买一些五年中闲置的设备不切实际。

如果市场情报能预示在最近两年内有新的廉价商品的话，我会抓住机会的。面试官想看到应试者乐于承担理性的风险而不是干蠢事。举例说明你作出反对某项计划或抉择的理由？如何使结果比原计划处理得更好？

Q:Describe an opportunity in which you felt the risks far outweighed the rewards.

A:At one point we had an opportunity to purchase conveyor equipment at thirty cents on the dollar from a company that had dissolved.Although we anticipated an overhaul of our distribution facility five years down the road,I felt it was

too far into the future to spend money only to have idle capacity for a fiveyear period.If market conditions had shown more promise for new sales in the initial twoyear period,I would have gone ahead with it.
