找工作经历分享，附常见面试问题（Mercer and Humana）

今天收到background check 和 drug test 已经全部完成的email, 公司发来了第一天
上班的流程, 终于尘埃落定. 可以给大家分享一下找工作经历.

先介绍一下背景, 统计master, 考过P, FM, MLC, MFE, 其中MFE 是今年五月份考过的,
七月份才知道的结果. 当时简历上还没有. 找工作简单讲来就是, 4 次On site, 拿到
两个offer, Mercer 和Humana.

从去年下半年开始找intern, 参加了校园面试, 没有经验也没任何准备, 结果很失败,
只有一个公司给了第二轮电面的机会, 最后也没有把握住. 校园面试的最大收获是知道
了保险公司的面试问题是些什么. 年底好好准备了问题的答案, 我准备了40 道问题(有
些问题基本差不多, 只是从不同角度去问), 最基本的问题有25道左右. 我可以贴在后
面.

到年底校园招聘基本结束. 今年年初开始找full-time的工作, 但也是有机会偶尔投投
简历, 比如学校Actuarial Club 给大家发email说某某公司还有一个opening, 有兴趣
的可以给谁谁发简历. 因为有了准备, 情况比去年好了很多. Mercer 的offer 就是这
样拿到的. 暑假五月底开始在careerbuilder 上发简历. 主要投life 和health 的
positions. 有了四个电话面试, 两个on-site.

主要感受:
1. 基本是behavior 的问题, 一定要事前准备答案, 记熟, 但回答的'时候不要有背的痕
迹, 可以中间停一停,假装想一想. 回答问题要说清楚, 慢一点没关系, 最怕说得太快
人家听不清.
2. 一定要记住对方的名字, 在面试开始和结束时,准确清晰地叫出对方的名字. 这个很
重要. 后来的面试问题已经很熟了, 我就重点记面试者的名字, 为了发音准确还查过字
典.
3. 多参加几次面试很有帮助, 所以对于想去的公司一定要排在最后.

最后, 我想告诉大家的是: 找工作要有耐心, 开始被拒总是很灰心,要坚持不要放弃,
一定会成功的. 还要记住,有付出才有收获, 整天怨天尤人是没有帮助的. 我就想我的
功课那么难我都学得下来, 为什么面试我搞不定呢?我认真准备了40道题, 20多页的答
案 (在这里感谢老公帮了很大的忙), 买了一本Top ten的面试畅销书 (Perfect
Phrases for the perfect interview) by Carole Martin, 从头到尾看了两遍, 好的
用法都在书上划了线, 并且溶合进我的答案里. 第一次on site之前, 我借了8盒录像带
, 4盘DVD 天天看,天天琢磨. 尽管我的第一次on site失败了(12 candidates, 只要3-4
个人) , 但从那以后我就对自己有了信心.

加油!
