職場(chǎng)英語(yǔ):如何在英文面試中脫穎而出
我們通過(guò)對(duì)大量面試資料的分析,發(fā)現(xiàn)一些典型的問(wèn)題在各種面試中反復(fù)出現(xiàn),恰恰是這些看似平常的問(wèn)題使許多應(yīng)聘者失去了得到理想工作的機(jī)會(huì)。所以在面試篇中,我們將逐個(gè)對(duì)這些常見(jiàn)的面試問(wèn)題進(jìn)行講解,并提供得體應(yīng)答例句。
一、WHAT TO TALK ABOUT 如何介紹?
你可以選擇三個(gè)重點(diǎn)來(lái)介紹自己,但避免重復(fù)履歷中曾提及的資料。
Around this skeleton should be the meat of your answer; your less obvious, but important skills. Here are some of the skills that you might want to mention. 你可以介紹自己是:
1. Problem solver 解決問(wèn)題能手
2. Creative thinker 充滿創(chuàng)意
3. Accurate 小心謹(jǐn)慎
4. People person 與人相處融洽
5. Team player 合群
6. Organized 組織力高
This doesn't mean that you just say, "I'm a great problem solver." Instead, explain how you used your problem-solving skills at your previous job. 事例比自我夸耀更能說(shuō)明問(wèn)題。
自我介紹的時(shí)間不要過(guò)長(zhǎng),最好是一至三分鐘。最初你可能會(huì)覺(jué)得時(shí)間太長(zhǎng),但當(dāng)你真正要介紹自己三項(xiàng)特質(zhì)時(shí),你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)時(shí)間不夠用了。
二、WHAT TO SAY 應(yīng)說(shuō)什么?
What you actually say, in terms of the words you use, is something that you have to decide. You need to create an answer that sounds natural and, at the same time, interesting. 背答案估計(jì)沒(méi)有人愿意聽。The way to determine whether your answer is natural is simply by writing a first draft of the answer and then read it out loud. When you do this, you'll probably spot things that you have to change.
Here are some final things to think about when answering the question "Tell me about yourself."
當(dāng)你構(gòu)思答案時(shí),你要想想應(yīng)該如何說(shuō)出,內(nèi)容要令人感興趣,不沉悶,避免滔滔不絕地只說(shuō)自己的強(qiáng)項(xiàng)。
1. Mention major awards or accomplishments that relate to your career;闡述工作上的重要成就或獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)
2. Promote your strengths, but do not mention any of your weaknesses;推銷自己的長(zhǎng)處,但不要提及自己的弱點(diǎn)
3. Try to be funny if you can, but don't force it;可以的話,盡量說(shuō)得幽默有趣
4. Summarize your career and education, but don't recite a list;概括說(shuō)出你的工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)和學(xué)歷,但切勿背誦
5. Don't start with your date of birth;不用提及你的出生日期
6. Avoid information that is not career-related. The fact that you own a dog won't get you a job避免說(shuō)一些與職業(yè)無(wú)關(guān)的事,例如:你有一只狗,這并不能為你爭(zhēng)取到工作
7. Always answer this question經(jīng)常思考和解答這條問(wèn)題
8. Try to sound natural對(duì)答要自然
9. Relax and enjoy yourself!放松心情,盡力而為。
祝你面試成功!
