每年暑假都是辞职、跳槽高峰期。这边刚把现公司的事情都结算清楚,那边下家也找得差不多了。这个找下家的过程中,面试是必不可少的一个环节。今天和小编一起来看一下英语面试中常见五大问题及回答。

Question 1: Can you tell me something about yourself?

问题1:能介绍一下你自己吗?

回答这个问题的时候,要重点突出与这个工作岗位相关的个人信息,比如,你做过什么工作,擅长什么,对职业发展有什么期望,等等。

I like to manage people and be involved in interesting projects. I have been working for IBM for the past six years, but I am looking for a new challenge right now. I like to do sports, especially athletics. I spend free time with my wife and kids.

Question 2: Why did you apply for this job?

问题2:你为什么应聘这个工作?

Question 3: Why did you leave your last job? / Why are you planning to leave your present job?

问题3:你为什么离开上一家公司?/你为什么想离开现在的公司?

回答这个问题的时候切记一点:不要诋毁之前的公司或者同事,你应该多说一说对于未来的展望,而不是纠结于过去。

【回答范例】

My last job was not challenging enough. I was not motivated to wake up to work anymore. I liked my colleagues and boss, but I simply can’t keep myself motivated anymore. Based on the job description I really believe that I can find new motivation and challenges in your company.

There was a downsizing in our company. Similarly to most people from financial department, my contract was terminated. However, it is the past. I am ready to utilize all the knowledge and experience I gained there to start my new career, possibly in your corporation.

Question 4: Can you tell me something about your education?

问题4:能说一说你的教育背景吗?

有些雇主和职位会比较看重教育背景,名校毕业或者MBA学位等资历可能会加分。但是,如果你的教育背景不是那么出色,你可以重点讲一讲你在过去的经历中学习到的丰富知识,不用在毕业学校这一类事情上太纠结。

【回答范例】

I have studied at ABC University. I acquired knowledge of statistics, project management and process management. I was active during my studies and took part in practical projects and courses too. Overall my studies were pretty practical and I believe to be ready for job of a project manager.

Question 5: Can you tell us something more about your working experience?

问题5:你能不能多跟我们说说你的工作经历?

回答这个问题的时候,挑一些跟目前应聘的职位最相关的工作经验说一说即可。当然,如果你之前只有一个工作经验,那么,无论是否有关都得好好说一说了。
