Don't Expect Career Coaching   不要期望职业辅导

The recruiter's goal is not to help you get a job. It's to help you navigate the hiring process at one specific company.
招聘人员的目的并不是为了帮助你得到工作。而是帮助你在一个特定的公司中通过面试流程。

Recruiters aren't career coaches. It's not appropriate to ask them to help you craft your cover letter, edit your resume or plan your career path.
招聘人员不是职业教练。开口让他们帮助你校正求职信,编辑简历或规划你的职业路径都是不恰当的。

You can ask questions about the company or industry in general, but try to relate your questions to the job you're being considered for. And save your best, most thoughtful questions for the hiring manager -- that's who you need to impress most.
一般来说你可以问关于公司或行业的问题,但是你的提问最好和你即将要应聘的职位相关。并且,将你最好,最有思考性的问题留着问人力资源经理吧,因为他们才是你最应该留下深刻印象的人。

Don't Ask for Insider Information  不要询问公司内部信息

There's only one job candidate you really need to worry about: You.
你真正要担心的职位候选人只有一个,那就是你自己。

Though it may be hard to resist, don't ask about who you're up against for a job. Recruiters generally won't share information about other candidates. And asking for specific details about the competition makes you look insecure in your own skills.
虽然很难忍得住,但是也不要问有哪些人在和你竞争这个职位。招聘人员一般不会告诉你其他候选人的信息。并且询问竞争的详细细节会让人觉得你对自己的技能不自信。

However, questions about the hiring process or the position itself are fair game. Here are a few questions you can feel comfortable asking:
然而,询问关于招聘程序或职位的相关问题是公平的竞争。以下几个问题是你可以坦然问出的:

1) Are you still interviewing candidates?
你们是否还在招聘候选人?

2) How large is the current pool of candidates?
当前的候选人数量有多大?

3) How would you describe the ideal candidate for the job?
你们怎么定义该职位的最佳候选人的呢?

4) Is there anything I can do to make myself a stronger candidate?
有什么事情是我可以努力做到来增大我的候选人强势吗?

The best way to get an edge on the competition? Make yourself a more competitive candidate.
获得竞争优势的最好方法是什么?那就是让你自己更有竞争力。

Don't Request Special Treatment  不要要求特殊的待遇

Although you may wish you were, you're probably not the only candidate for the job.
虽然你非常希望自己是该份职位的唯一候选人,但遗憾的是情况并非如此。

And, while recruiters are often happy to help, their aim is not to be your advocate to the hiring manager. Their aim is to fill a position.
而且,虽然招聘人员经常乐于助人,但是他们的目的却并不是将你推荐给招聘经理,而是为该份工作职位找到合适的人选。

Never ask a recruiter to put in a good word for you with the hiring manager. If they think you're a strong candidate, they'll probably sing your praises anyway.
一定不要要求一位招聘工作人员在人力资源经理面前帮你说好话。反正如果他们觉得你是一位优秀的候选人,他们也会自主赞美你的。

Also, don't ask them to relay a message to the hiring manager for you. Instead of saying, "Tell So-and-So it was very nice to meet him ...," send a thank you note.
另外,也不要叫他们帮你向招聘经理传话。不要说“告诉某某某、某某某很高兴认识他”,正确的做法是发一封感谢信。

Taking the initiative and speaking for yourself shows the hiring manager that you're capable, confident and conscientious.
主动为自己说话能够向招聘经理展示你是有能力的,自信而尽职的。

Remember, if you treat the recruiter well, chances are they'll treat you the same way.
记住,如果你善待招聘的工作人员,他们以同样的方式对待你的机会就越大。
