跟美國公司的人講時,口頭上多說 I need to give two weeks' notice.(我要提前兩週告知公司),notice period 比較常出現在合約和 HR 文件裡;美國也沒有法定預告期。在台灣,勞基法規定年資 3 個月以上未滿 1 年要在 10 天前預告、1 年以上未滿 3 年 20 天前、3 年以上 30 天前(第 15 條第 2 項準用第 16 條第 1 項)。
面試官也可能問 What would you do if your company made a counteroffer?,想表明已經決定離開,可以這樣回答。
counteroffer 現職公司開出的慰留條件
Even if my company makes a counteroffer, I've decided to move on.
就算公司開條件留我,我也已經決定離開了。
My company made a counteroffer, but I turned it down.
公司開了條件留我,但我拒絕了。
面試官可能這樣回
That's good to know.
了解。
整段照著用:一場面試從頭到尾
做了五年業務的你,去應徵一家外商的行銷職位,面試官是行銷經理 Rachel。
Rachel:So, why are you leaving your current job? 那你為什麼想離開現在的工作?
你:After five years in sales, I feel I've outgrown my role. There isn't much room for growth on my team, and I'm looking for compensation that reflects my experience. 做了五年業務,我覺得自己的能力已經超過目前的職位。我的團隊成長空間不大,我也在找符合自己經驗的薪酬。

你:I'd also like a better work-life balance so I can stay focused at work. 我也希望工作和生活更平衡,上班時才能更專注。

Rachel:How much notice do you need to give? 你要提前多久告知公司?
你:My notice period is 30 days, so I can start in about a month, once I've handed over my work. 我的離職預告期是 30 天,所以大約一個月後、把工作交接完就能到職。
Rachel:What would you do if your company made a counteroffer? 如果公司開條件留你,你會怎麼做?
你:I'd thank them, but I've already decided to move on, and I'll leave on good terms. 我會謝謝公司,但我已經決定離開了,也會跟公司好聚好散。
