面試的奧秘
[ 2007-02-16 11:04 ]
是不是為即將到來的面試而忐忑不安呢？下面這篇幽默的對話不但可以緩解你對面是的恐懼，還可以讓你了解不少面試的知識。
A: Hello, Modern English. Drew here.
你好，洋話連篇，我是Drew。
B: Hi, buddy, it's Marco.
嘿哥們兒，我是Marco。
A: How can I help you today?
今天想聊些什么？
B: Well. I am going for an interview tomorrow. Can you give me an idea of
what the interviewer will ask?
明天我要參加面試。你能幫我想想他們都會問什么問題嗎？
A: Well, they may ask you to tell them about your educational background and
your working background.
他們會問你關于你的教育背景和工作背景的問題。
B: But they can see my resume. It's all in there.
但是他們可以看我的簡歷，都在那里呢。
A: I know, but sometimes interviewers may want to hear you say it. Then, you
may be asked for your viewpoint on why you feel you're qualified for the job,
give them all your qualifications and how you think they fit with the position
you are applying for. Questions like "What sort of experience do you have and
what are your goals?" are closely related to this,
also.
我知道，但是有時面試者們想聽你自己說。然后他們會問你為什么你覺得自己能勝任這份工作。把自身的優勢都說出來，告訴他們你有能力勝任這份工作。有些問題像你有什么經驗和你有什么目標是緊密聯系的。
B: Ok, what else?
好的，還有什么其它的嗎？
A: They may want to know how the company will benefit, with your answers to
questions like "What can you offer this company?" and "Why should I hire
you?"
他們也許還想知道你會為公司帶來什么樣的利益。會問像你能為公司帶來什么，或是我們為什么要用你。
B: I see, what about salary?
我知道了。那工資呢？
A: Umm, they may ask you what kind of salary you had in mind, or simply tell
you what the company is offering. I think the latter is more likely for a
starting position, especially if you have little or no experience. And if they
are seriously considering hiring you, they will probably want to know when you
would be able to start working. And basically, that's about
it.
噢。他們可能會問你想要多少工資，或簡單的告訴你公司的打算。我想一開始工作的話，后者的能性要大一些，尤其是你沒有工作經驗的話。如果他們真的考慮要用你的話，他們可能會問你，你什么時候會開始工作，一般就這些了。
B: Oh, thanks, Drew, you've helped me a lot.
謝了，Drew 你幫了大忙了。
A: Anytime, bro. Let me know how it works out.
沒事兒，兄弟，別忘了告訴我結果。
Notes:
[1] Why do you feel you are qualified for the job?
這句話在面試中經常問到，但它卻不好答。要多用一些技巧，盡量把自己的能力表現出來。
[2] What sort of experience do you
have? Sort of和kind of一樣，表示某種的意思，另外，它還是一個流行的口語，當你表達不清的時侯，用這個詞來調整一下。
[3] When
would you be able to start working? 通常的回答是ASAP: as soon as possible.
