以下只是一些最基本的面試問答。對(duì)于英語非母語的人來說，最重要和最難的是用英語講述大量細(xì)節(jié)，尤其是復(fù)雜的細(xì)節(jié)。然而，雇主是很有必要知道你能否把工作范疇內(nèi)的細(xì)節(jié)表達(dá)清楚，這對(duì)你是否勝任至關(guān)重要。不要太過擔(dān)心語法問題。只要用詞夠多，內(nèi)容夠細(xì)，只要不影響理解，語法往往不是那么重要。
問: Tell me about yourself.
答: I was born and raised in Dalian, China. I attended the University of Beijing and received my master's degree in Economics. I have worked for 5 years as a financial consultant in Beijing for various companies including Rossi Consultants, People's Insurance of China and Pepsi. I enjoy playing soccer in my free time and traveling.
答: I've just graduated from the University of Toronto with a degree in Computers Science. During the summers, I worked as a systems administrator for a small company to help pay for my education.
評(píng)語: 這個(gè)問題的目的是想大概地了解你，所以無需講太多細(xì)節(jié)的東西。你的回答通常會(huì)幫助面試官?zèng)Q定下個(gè)問題問什么。除了給對(duì)方一個(gè)整體的印象，最重要的是著重講和工作有關(guān)的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)是大多數(shù)面試中最重要的環(huán)節(jié)，比學(xué)歷更重要。
問: What type of position are you looking for?
答: I'm interested in an entry level (beginning) position.
答: I'm looking for a position in which I can utilize my experience.
答: I would like any position for which I qualify.
評(píng)語:對(duì)于一個(gè)英語非母語的申請(qǐng)人，許多公司期望你能從低做起，慢慢彌補(bǔ)語言方面的不足。就算你以前很成功有多年經(jīng)驗(yàn)，也應(yīng)當(dāng)有這個(gè)心理準(zhǔn)備。
問: Are you interested in a full-time or part-time position?
答: I am more interested in a full-time position. However, I would also consider a part-time position.
評(píng)語: 盡量留最大的余地爭(zhēng)取機(jī)會(huì)。因?yàn)橹灰ぷ髂玫搅�，以后的事情就容易把握，主�?dòng)性大多了。
問: Can you tell me about your responsibilities at your last job?
答: I advised customers on financial matters. After I consulted the customer, I completed a customer inquiry form and catalogued the information in our database. I then collaborated with colleagues to prepare the best possible package for the client. The clients were then presented with a summarized report on their financial activities that I formulated on a quarterly basis.
評(píng)語: 提到過往工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)時(shí)，注意越詳細(xì)越好。新移民最容易犯的錯(cuò)誤之一是講過去經(jīng)歷時(shí)太過籠統(tǒng)。雇主是想知道你到底做什么以及你做得怎么樣，你講得越詳細(xì)，他們就越能知道你是否在行。你可以換著用一些不同的詞匯來形容，而且盡量不要每句話都用“I”開頭。記得用過去時(shí)態(tài)。
