Abstract

Abstract: Job applicants often attempt to control the images they give to interviewers consciously or unconsciously within an interview setting. This is what we called applicant impression management (AIM). This article reviews the dispute on the difference of AIM, faking and self-presentation in the interviews, and also highlights the newly founded results and the mechanism of AIM from the respect of the applicants, interviewers and interview circumstances. Moreover, this review summaries and analyses the main research methods of AIM and finally offers the limitations and advices from three aspects: concept definition and classification, individual differences and AIM in other special occupations and posts, so that autochthonous and deeper seated studies could be expected.

Key words: applicant impression management, faking, self-presentation, interview.

摘要： 应聘者在面试中有意无意地试图控制面试官对自己形成某种印象，这被称为应聘者印象管理。本文在回顾有关应聘者印象管理、面试中的作假与自我表现三个概念争议的基础上，重点介绍了应聘者印象管理的效果及机制的研究进展，分别从应聘者、面试官和面试场景角度归纳其影响因素，并对该领域的主要研究方法进行了剖析。最后提出，应聘者印象管理的“概念界定和类别划分、个体差异和在特殊职业岗位的外部效度”是未来值得关注的三个方向。

关键词: 应聘者印象管理, 作假, 自我表现, 面试。
