前言
对外企的英文面试应该按照以下步骤来进行准备:
(1)
预测问题。这个环节不但能帮助你克服听力困难,
而且能缓解你在面试时候的紧张情
绪。想象一下,
如果总是
Pardon, Excuse
me
,
你怎么可能镇定自若?
(2)
p>
书写答案。英语
8
级的牛人也会在英文面试
时出现逻辑不清的情况,
因为流利和井井
有条绝对不是同义词。
笔者的亲身体会是,
越是英语流利的牛人,
越容易在面试的时候废
话连篇,
逻辑混乱。
(3)
背诵答案。背诵三遍以内是结巴,
背诵十遍以内是流利的背诵,
而背诵二三十遍以上
就不再是背诵,
而是滔滔不绝的自由表达!
(4)
若有所思。
面试的时候,
在流利做答之前,
别忘了做思索状,
再加上个
well
,
let
me
see……
衡量一个回答是否精彩,
只有一个标准:
这个回答中,
体现了申请人的什么特
征?这些
特征是优点还是缺点?如果是优点,
是否刚好适合所申请职位的优点?
一、
Personal Information
关于个人信息的
问题
1.
What’s
the
meaning
of
your
English
name?
你的英文
名字有什么含义么?
问题分析:
有些申请人的英文名字不合常规,
比
如叫
King
,
或者
Sushi
,
或者
Monk
等等。面试官询问这些申请人名字的含
义,
主要有几个目的:
第一,
缓解面试的紧
张气氛;
第二,
面试官也有一点点好奇心;
第三,
给申请人一个展示自己独特个
性
的机会,
因为敢于给自己起独特名字的人往往具有很独特的个性,
这些人希望引起别
人的注意。
普通回答:
Actually,
Sushi is my nickname. My friends gave me this name
because I
like to eat the Japanese food
sushi.
点评:
这个回答体现出你是个什么样的人呢?在中国吃寿司价格不菲,
如果吃寿司吃
到了朋友给你起了
“
p>
寿司
”
这个外号的地步,
< br>
这个申请人一定不会是囊中羞涩的人。
同志
们想一下,
我们在面试的时候,
是把自己伪装成
“
艰苦朴素
”
,
还是
“
锦
衣玉食
”
呢?即
使现如今寿司已经跌价
到人尽可食的地步,
你这个回答也只是在告诉面试官:
嘿,
我
可是
个好吃的人啊!比较一下以下的这个回答,
你就知道哪个更胜一筹了。
回答示范
1
:
As a matter of fact, Sushi is a
nickname my friends gave me, because I
like sushi and like to make sushi. I
can make about ten different kinds of sushi! My
friends say that my personality is a
bit like sushi, simple but good, hehe.
点评
1
:
与刚才的回答相比,
这个回答体现出
你是个什么样的人呢?一个擅长制作寿
司的女孩子一定是动手能力比较强的,
而且喜欢做一些琐碎小事的人。同时,
把寿司
的优点引申成自己的个性优点:
简单而美好,
真是一个不错的比喻。
回答示范
2
:
The name King may sound a bit
aggres
sive, I hope it won’t make you
feel
uncomfortable. As a matter of
fact, I chose the name King simply because it
sounds
like my Chinese name Jing. But,
there is also a hidden meaning in it, that is, I
wish to
conquer diseases like a King!
点评
2
:
<
/p>
如果你给自己起了一个类似
“
国王
”
这样比较
aggressive
的名字,
就得想好怎
么
样解释才能让面试官知道你并不是一个过分
aggressive
的人。
这个回答体现了该申请
人热爱自己医生职业的特点。<

:
My given name in Chinese is Meng, so I
chose Monk to be my English
name. I
admire the spirit of monks, you know, abstinence
and tolerance.

:
回答得妙呀,
不仅仅真实,
而且展现了自己的独特个性,
告诉面
试官自己
身上有和尚般的优秀品质:
克制欲望、
容忍。面试官只要不想嫁给你,
就一定会喜
欢这样的回答。
2. What’s the meaning of
your email address?
你的电
子邮件地址有什么寓意么?
问题分析:
当代青年男女个性张扬,
所以连
p>
email
地址也颇为独特。令笔者或迷惑或
微笑的
email
地址有很多,
比如
neverlazy, bighead,
lazyfish, 52n52n, yulovehong
等
等。与上一个问题一样,
善于交流的面试官往往乐于给你一个机会展示自己的个性。
较差回答:
Lazyfish?
Oh, I admire the goldfish for living an easy life.
Compared to
goldfish, human beings live
a fast-paced life. So I chose this email address
to make me
feel a bit relaxed.
点评:
个性倾向于过慵懒的生活,
唉!
较差回答:
52n52n? oh,
it means “I love you, I love you,” because 5
sounds like “I” in
Chinese, and 2 for
“love”, n for “you”. I registered this address to
please my girlfriend,
hehe.
点评:
公开示爱?啧啧,
除了他的女朋友会觉得甜蜜蜜,
别的
人一律会露出特虚伪
的笑容或胃里泛酸。唉!
回答示范:
Neverlazy?
Oh, I want to encourage myself never to be lazy!
You know I am
a hardworking person. So,
it’s my slogan!
点评:
在
e
mail
地址中都要给自己励志的女子,
一定是个超级工作狂,
好呀!
(

名
女子如愿进入了宝洁公司的
CBD
部
门。
)
3. Where are
you from? Where is your hometown?
你
是哪里人?家乡在什么地方?
问题分析:
很多老外在中国工作居住多年,
甚至自诩为中国通,
他们可能会顺便问
问你是哪里人,
拉近和你的距离。
回答示范
1
:
I was born and raised in the city of
Wuhan. As far as I know, our company
has a branch office near Hanzheng
Street, and it’s quite a big office.

2
:
Well, my hometown is a small town which
you probably have never heard
of. The
name of the town is Dehui, which means “good
moral” in Chinese. The town is
located
in the middle of China’s Northeast. When you look
at the map, it looks like the
eye of
the rooster
. You know, China looks like
a rooster on the map, and the Northeast
region
looks
just
like
the
head
of
the rooster

My hometown
“Good
Moral

is
unknown
to most people because it’s quite poor
.
The average income for a family is
less

:
绝妙的回答!一方面生动地告诉外国面试官,
你的家乡是东北这个鸡头上眼
睛部位的一个小县城,
另一方面,
让他知道你家乡的人们平
均一个月才不到
1,000
元
的收入,
令日入斗金的老外颇为欷觑。让他欷觑了,
你就被记住了。被记住,
是被
录取的前提。
二、
Education
关于教育背景的问题
4. Why
did you select your major area of study?
你为什
么选择了这个专业?
问题分析:
外国面试官更喜欢提
p>
“
为什么
”
的问题
,
他希望申请人是一个有主见的人。
回答示范
1
:
I was quite good at mathematics and
physics back in high school so I chose
a related major

of computer science. You
know, these
two majors are the hottest these years.

2
:
As a matt
er of fact, I
didn’t select the major of Geography Education at
all,

I
had
chosen
Business

I
applied

unfortunately
I
failed

these

the
minimum
requirement.
The
school allocated me to a
cold major

Luckily, I could select a
second focus.

area of study. What
was that saying?
“When God closes the door

window.” Hehe.

这个回答似乎很长,
但是却不得不这么长。这是一个典型的中国特色,
如果你
的分数够不上第一志愿,
p>
学校就把你打入某一个
“
冷宫

专业去,
而你为了进入
这所一流的
大学不得不屈服。这种怪现象制造出很多感觉自己比窦娥还冤的

”
,
学着
“

却痛恨从事教师职业,
学着
“

第一,
向外国面试官普及了一下中国特色;
第二,
强调了自己对商业和管理一贯的热诚;
第三,
告诉对方其实自己高考只差<

5. What subjects were your favorite?
Why?
你最喜欢的课
程是什么,
为什么?
问题分析:
与中国面试官一样,
对于应届毕业生,
外国面试官经常问
问有关学业方面的
问题。面试官喜欢的申请人,
是对自己专业的优缺点分析得头头是道的人。

because they are taught in a very interactive way.

问题分析:
外国面试官的思维往往非常直接,

Well, I think the most important thing
I have learnt in university is how to set
appropriate goals and see them through.
You know it is so easy for university students to
waste time if they don’t set goals, so
I set demanding goals to motivate myself. One is
that
I decided to get scholarships each
year
, the other one is that I decided
to be the leader of
a club on campus.
Neither was easy, but in more than three years, I
managed to achieve
both.

Getting
scholarship
wasn’t
quite difficult for

competition. To achieve the goal I changed my
strategy. I
transferred
from
the
Student
Union
to
a
newly-
founded
union.
And
within
6
months,
I
acquired more than 20
members and organized a few eye-catching
activities. As a result, I
became the
leader of that club. I think I’ve learnt not only
to set a demanding goal, but
also how
to overcome all the difficulties to achieve it.

关于工作经验的问题
9. Would you briefly describe this

问题分析:
当老外提出这个问题的时候,
他心里的疑问是:
“
这个公司我从来没有听说过,
p>
是否是个名不见经传的小公司?
”
所以,<
/p>
在向老外介绍自己工作单位的时候,
要着重强调
公司的优点,
规模大的强调规模,
人数多的强调人数。如果你所在的公司业务总量很小,
你可以告诉面试官,
业务总量不大但是平均到每个员工的业务量却相当惊人!

RMB. I am one of the three customer service
officers, with the

第二,

:
To be honest, the reason I quit is that
I am not pleased by my current job. My
current work is in a vocational high
school. Maybe I have to explain a bit more here.
In
China, vocational high schools are
designed for the less-advanced students or the
ones
wanting
work
instead
of going
to
university
to
further
their
education.
As
a
result,
the
social status and the pay in vocational
high schools are not at all satisfactory. I can
never
become a professor in this
school. So, although teaching makes me happy, I
have to leave
this job because I can’t
have long
-term career development here.
