你怎么看待花园侏儒这个问题?
"Not all questions are serious; a question like this is most likely thrown out to see your sense of humour in an otherwise formal situation," said a spokesperson from recruitment company Pareto.
“并不是所有的问题都很严肃认真;在其他正式的场合中,扔出去像这类的问题最有可能是为了看看你的幽默感如何,”招聘公司一名发言人帕累托表示。
"It is still prudent to air on the side of how it can be related to the role you have applied for, but try to take a not so serious approach to it. For example if you are applying for an engineering role, question whether the gnomes have the right tools to do the job in hand."
“这个问题在如何申请适合自己的工作这方面仍须谨慎,但要试着通过不是很严肃认真的方法去进行。例如,如果你申请工程方向的工作,要提出是否有适合侏儒的工具来做这项工作的问题。”
