When a prospective employer makes unreasonable demands on you before things start to get serious, it's a strong signal to hit the road.

当一位未来雇主在工作还没正式之前就提出了无理要求，那么明显说明你需要“跑路”了。

Here's our list of Six Reasons to Run:

以下就是六个“逃之夭夭”的理由：

1) Your employment references are requested before a strong mutual interest is established.

在建立SMI（注：“强烈的共同利益”关系）之前，你被要求提供就业推荐人。

Any employer who values a job candidate also values his or her time and relationships. When a headhunter or company recruiter tells you "We'll need to call your references" too early in the game, they're sending a signal that the valuable time of your reference-givers is not nearly as valuable as the time that the company would waste in interviewing you before checking up on you. Your cue to bail.

尊重求职者的雇主也一样会尊重他/她的时间和关系。当一位猎头或招聘公司过早地告诉你“我们需要打电话给你的推荐人”，这意味着你的推荐人的时间远不及在核查前面试你的时间那么宝贵。这是提示你该“走路”的征兆。

2) The employer asks for your Social Security number or your approval for a credit or background check before strong mutual interest is established.

在SMI建立之前，雇主询问社会保障卡号、或要你同意对你的信用、背景进行调查。

When a company says, "We need to check on you before we can spare the time to talk with you," it's time to get out of Dodge. A talent-focused employer will call you for a phone interview (at a minimum) before bothering you for personal information that they won't require if they don't make you a job offer. This type of batch processing shouts, "Get in line to genuflect." Keep looking.

当公司说“我们先要查实一下你的情况之后才有时间和你交谈”，就该是逃离“骗局”的时候了。以人为本的雇主在调查你的个人情况之前会对你进行（至少）一次电话面试。如果他们不打算给你机会则不会要求你提供个人信息。这种“整批处理”的含义是“排队磕头”。 要小心。

3) You're sent a questionnaire (not a job application) or online test to complete before you've had any human contact with the employer, including a phone call.

在和雇主进行任何接触之前（包括电话），就要求你填写一份调查问卷（不是申请表）或在线测试。

When a company makes its selection process more efficient by shoving tests in your face before so much as chatting with you, they're sharing their views on reciprocity. "Prove to us that you're worth our time" is not the message that a talent-aware employer sends to the talented people applying to use their talents on its behalf. Reciprocity works in the same that permission-based marketing does; you give something to get something at every step in the process. A smarter company will chat with you, answer your questions about the job, and then ask, "Would you mind filling out our questionnaire, as the next step in the process? Can I answer any questions for you, to help you feel comfortable investing more time in our company?" liuxuepaper.com
