????職場(chǎng)上恐怕沒(méi)有比面試更令人緊張不安的場(chǎng)合了。但面試真的是“可怕的,、壓力山大的折磨嗎,？”恐怕是這樣,。哈里斯互動(dòng)公司（Harris Interactive）和珠穆朗瑪峰學(xué)院（Everest College）對(duì)1,002名成年職場(chǎng)人士進(jìn)行過(guò)一項(xiàng)調(diào)查調(diào)查。結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn),，關(guān)于與潛在雇主見面這件事,，有92%的美國(guó)人至少會(huì)存在某一種憂慮，而很多人常常是憂慮重重,。

????其中，最大的憂慮是：自己看上去顯得緊張（17%）,，其次分別是,，個(gè)人資歷過(guò)高（15%），被面試官的問(wèn)題難?。?5%）,，遲到（14%），不合格（11%）,，以及沒(méi)有做好準(zhǔn)備（10%）。

????調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn),，男性和女性存在許多有趣的差異,。男性最大的憂慮是個(gè)人資歷過(guò)高，比例達(dá)到19%,。而女性明顯更加謙遜（這在面試時(shí)不見得一定是好事）：她們最大的憂慮是自己看起來(lái)很緊張（19%）,，另外有相同比例的女性擔(dān)心回答不出面試官的問(wèn)題,。

????調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)，收入越高的人群越不會(huì)被面試所困擾：家庭收入低于50,000美元的受訪者中,，有22%的受訪對(duì)象稱擔(dān)心在面試的時(shí)候看起來(lái)很緊張,；而收入在100,000美元的受訪者中，僅有11%存在這樣的擔(dān)心。此外,，在8%聲稱絕對(duì)不會(huì)對(duì)面試感到不安的極少數(shù)人當(dāng)中，收入在75,000美元至100,000美元的受訪者“沒(méi)有收入在35,000-50,000美元受訪者的那些擔(dān)憂,?！?/p>

????相關(guān)的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示：大學(xué)教育讓人更有自信。報(bào)告發(fā)現(xiàn)：“僅有高中或更低學(xué)歷的受訪者,，約有22%認(rèn)為過(guò)于緊張是最大的擔(dān)憂，而大學(xué)畢業(yè)生僅有11%,?！?/p>

????年齡也會(huì)產(chǎn)生影響。相比年長(zhǎng)的受訪者,，18至34歲的受訪者更擔(dān)心留下糟糕的第一印象——不過(guò)在有些情況下,，確實(shí)如此,。珠峰學(xué)院西海岸地區(qū)職業(yè)指導(dǎo)主任約翰?斯瓦茨表示，招聘經(jīng)理們?cè)?jīng)跟他說(shuō),，年輕的求職者經(jīng)常在面試中接電話和看短信,。斯瓦茨認(rèn)為，這倒不一定會(huì)讓他們看起來(lái)顯得緊張,，反倒會(huì)讓人覺(jué)得他們對(duì)面試過(guò)程不感興趣,。“面試依然是一個(gè)傳統(tǒng)環(huán)境,，在面試過(guò)程中為社交媒體和智能手機(jī)而分心是不恰當(dāng)?shù)淖龇?。?/p>

????如何克服面試中的緊張不安,？斯瓦茨說(shuō)：“面臨壓力,，每個(gè)人都會(huì)有不同的表現(xiàn),。但管理恐懼最好的方法就是做好準(zhǔn)備?！彼a(bǔ)充道,，提前研究潛在雇主的公司，盡量預(yù)測(cè)面試問(wèn)題，同時(shí)提前想出一些比較有技巧的問(wèn)題,，這樣便可以幫你平靜下來(lái),。

????還有一點(diǎn)要記住，在高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)情況下,，手心輕微出汗是非常正常的現(xiàn)象，不會(huì)對(duì)求職者造成不利的影響,。畢竟,，招聘經(jīng)理當(dāng)年也曾經(jīng)是求職者。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

????Few workplace rituals are more suspenseful than a job interview, but is it really a "dreaded, stressful ordeal"? Yes, says a new report that sums up the results of a survey of 1,002 employed adults by Harris Interactive and Everest College. It seems that 92% of Americans fear at least one thing, and often several, about meeting a prospective employer.

????The most widespread worry: Seeming nervous (17%), followed by being overqualified (15%), being stumped by an interviewer's questions (15%), showing up late (14%), being underqualified (11%), and not being prepared (10%).

????The poll turned up a few interesting differences between men and women. The most common fear among men, with 19% choosing it as their top worry, is being seen as overqualified. Women apparently are humbler (not always a good thing, in this context): Their chief fear is seeming nervous, tied at 19% with being unable to answer a specific question.

????The more money you make, the less likely you are to be fazed by a job interview, the poll suggests: 22% of those whose household income is less than $50,000 said that they worry about seeming nervous on an interview; 11% of survey respondents with incomes of $100,000 had the same fear. Moreover, among the 8% minority who claim to have absolutely no qualms about job interviews, those with incomes between $75,000 and $100,000 are "more likely not to fear anything than those making between $35,000 and $50,000," the report says.

????A related finding: College makes you confident. "22% of the survey participants with a high school diploma or less ranked being too nervous as their top fear, compared with just 11% of college graduates," the report notes.

????Age also makes a difference, with people aged 18 to 34 more likely than older employees to say they worry about making a bad first impression -- in some cases, rightly so. John Swartz, West Coast regional director of career services for survey co-sponsor Everest College, says he hears from hiring managers that young job candidates often take phone calls and send or read texts during interviews. This doesn't necessarily make them appear nervous as much as uninterested in the process altogether, Swartz says. "The job interview is still a traditional environment, where the distractions of social media and smartphones are not appropriate."

????How can you conquer the job interview jitters? "Everyone is different under pressure," says Swartz. "But the best way to manage fear is simply to be prepared." Researching the company thoroughly ahead of time, doing your best to anticipate questions, and thinking up some smart questions of your own can help calm you down, he adds.

????It might also help to keep in mind that, in a high-stakes situation, a mild case of sweaty palms is perfectly natural and unlikely to count against you. Every hiring manager has, after all, sat on your side of the desk, too.
