"What would you do if the supplier wanted to bribe you?"
If I say, no, I won't. Do you think the examiner will believe you? On the contrary, he may look down on you and think you are lying.
If I want to say: As for the kickback, I will politely refuse it, but I have cooperated with each other for a long time, and I can accept some small gifts (not too big) from each other to express my gratitude in China. After all, gift-giving is deeply rooted in China's business culture. It is not necessarily a good thing to refuse completely!
Narrator: Purchasing itself is a sensitive profession, clear and white! If you answer this question, the examiner will question whether your professional ethics are clear! This is not a good answer.
The holes that the interviewer dug for you are all routines!
"Smile" at first, because this question is very clear to everyone ... but I am trying to answer it more tactfully, such as "generally, I will refuse, if the supplier still wants to meet, he can be invited to the company for an interview, or if he has time, he can make a factory inspection ..." and so on. ...
Think about how many pits you have experienced since you engaged in the procurement industry, and you will be scared off by such a question. I kept a lady's demeanor and answered gently: First of all, thank you for asking this test question. Secondly, as a purchasing worker with many years of purchasing experience and good working ability, supply chain work is the first gate for enterprises to create suburban benefits. Every day I see all kinds of sales who want to do business with us. Suppliers have tried their best, and there are many means and skills, which are related to the gains and losses of enterprises. I will definitely refuse politely, but I think we must first establish and improve the supplier system. The supplier's bribery can be clearly explained to the supplier. I often tell suppliers that you only need to do three things: first, provide quality products; The second is to give me preferential prices; The third is to ensure thoughtful after-sales service. If further communication is needed, you can invite him to the company for an interview. Red envelopes and the like are even more unnecessary. Need long-term consideration. If your career is damaged by immediate personal interests, which is more important?
Personally, it is acceptable to accept the banquet of suppliers without violating the principle, which can strengthen the cooperative relationship between the two sides to a certain extent; For gifts, if they are souvenirs or promotional materials from the other company, you can accept them, but don't accept them from others. If the gift can't be pushed, it is recommended to give it to the superior leader or to the HR department. I believe the company has relevant regulations!
Now, I have worked in this enterprise. I think that the follow-up individuals should adhere to the attitude of being responsible for their posts, straighten their mentality, adhere to principles and handle affairs impartially on the premise of doing a good job. Actively establish a pragmatic work style, do tell the truth, do practical things, seek practical results, and maintain a decent work style. Well, this is what an excellent purchasing worker should do.
