本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛As an outsider, it is not wise to claim that you know something that the interviewer does not know about the company, especially when what you have done is nothing more than cursory research of some public information. Even if you have been working in the same industry for many years, you still need to be cautious in passing on any judgement. The accounting policies could be vastly different even among companies in the same industry. And the financial results you have seen may have been subjected to heavy earnings management. On the other than hand, identifying the problem is one thing but fixing the problem is another. In many cases, it is not difficult to see the problem; what is hard is to find the solution. The gross margins may be lower than industry norms. A certain expense may seem to be too high. The managers there already know these and don’t need to be reminded especially in a way as if they have been overlooking them all the time. After attending a few management meetings, you will find that it is the same problems that are brought up again and again, but the solutions always seem to be elusive.

The answer sounds like that you are a saviour who have come to their rescue. It is not true. You are not the one, and even if you are, they will not trust you. Instead of impressing the interviewer, you end up striking him/her as someone pompous or unrealistic.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
