回答示范1

In my current job, most pressure comes from the high sales target. It’s extremely difficult to meet the target because it’s a 30% increase over the sales of last year, and the sales of last year were already quite high. However, I can manage this pressure well because although I can’t meet the sales target, my sales abilities have never been challenged by my boss and others. Six out of seven sales reps can’t meet the target this year and I am actually quite close to it.

点评1: 虽然该申请人没有说出具体的应付压力的办法, 但是他告诉面试官他并不受压力所困, 因为自己的能力早已经被公认。这是一个很自信的回答。

回答示范2:

Well, I have to meet deadlines in my current job. Some projects have a very tight schedule, and even if we do a lot of over time work it’s still hard to meet the deadline. This gives me a lot of pressure. Usually I manage the pressure by communicating honestly with my boss. If he can understand me I feel relaxed.

点评2: 非常入情入理的回答。做技术工作的人员通常为了赶项目而熬通宵, 而如果熬通宵也不能如期交付项目的话, 势必会造成心理压力。争取老板的理解, 的确是缓解压力的好办法。

回答示范3:

There are many emergencies in my current job, you know, customer challenges, unexpected orders. As the customer service officer with the longest experience I am usually put in charge of handling emergencies, you know, like a firefighter. This gives me lots of pressure because I can’t let my boss down. I could handle these pressures well, partly because I’m used to them.

点评3: 这是个超级棒的回答, 它变相地告诉面试官, 自己是最资深的客户服务代表, 因此总是被派做“消防队员”, 自然要面临很大压力。而自信, 是对付压力的最好办法。
