Question

如题所述

Answer 1

Jiang Anshi applied for a job as a computer programmer in a large foreign-owned computing company. Because he was very well qualified in computing and had extensive experience, he thought that he had a very good chance of getting the job. Three people interviewed him. They started out by asking him questions about his qualifications and experience. He answered confidently.
Suddenly, however, one of the interviewers asked him whether he could work in a team. Jiang Anshi was rather surprised at the question but said, “Yes.” He was then asked why he was interested in this particular job. He explained that the job was very suitable for him as he had done similar work before. He also explained that the salary was better than the salary he was currently receiving. Finally, he was asked if he himself had any questions. He did not.
Jiang Anshi left the interview feeling that he had done well. However, he did not get the job and later found out that the successful applicant had less experience than he had.
Analysis:中西方人们对面试的概念有一定区别。西方招聘单位在招聘职员时，更注重你的团队合作精神，对应聘职位的兴趣而不是简历上的一些经验和职业资格证书等，他们认为面试的目的是使招聘单位与应聘人相互了解，招聘职员是双向选择，而不是招聘单位单方面地了解进而选择应聘人员。

Answer 2

以下是提供一个跨文化交际的案例分析：
Sally是一位来自美国的营销顾问，她与一家来自中国的公司进行合作，以帮助提高其销售业绩。在最初的会议上，Sally感到很困惑，因为中国的合作伙伴在会议中表现得非常含蓄和保守，与她在美国合作的风格非常不同。她发现，与中国合作伙伴交流时，他们往往不会直接回答问题，而是用隐含的方式表达自己的意见，这让她感到很困惑。
Sally决定深入了解中国文化，并开始阅读关于中国文化的研究资料。她发现，在中国文化中，人们往往强调集体主义和面子，而不是个人主义和自由。这意味着，在中国文化中，人们更倾向于在团队中合作，而不是突出个人。此外，中国文化还强调保全面子的重要性，这意味着人们更倾向于避免在公共场合表现得过于直接或坦率。
Sally意识到，她需要调整自己的交际风格以适应中国文化。她开始更加尊重中国合作伙伴的意见，并在与他们交流时更加间接和含蓄。她还学会了如何理解中国合作伙伴的暗示和隐含的意思，以更好地理解他们的想法和需求。
最终，Sally成功地与中国合作伙伴建立了更紧密的关系，并帮助他们在销售方面取得了很大的进步。她意识到，跨文化交际需要双方的理解和尊重，以及适应不同文化和情境的能力。
