事实上，即使许多求职者原本英文能力还不错，但是只要碰到到英语面试，由於紧张及非母语的关系，表现也不免大打折扣。事实上，如果你具备基本的英文能力，可以根据充分的准备，在「英语面试」脱颖而出。以下是我们的建议。
一般敢挑战英语面试的求职者，都有一定的英文基础。不过，即使英文基础不错，也不一定可以在英语面试时胜出。在这里我要提供一些英语面试时该掌握的基本技巧，这些方法将可以有效的提升求职者在英语面试时的表现。
见面亲切问候，赢得主考官好感
让我们先谈谈初见面的问候语。求职者带给面试官的第一印象，如果是落落大方的，会是一个很好的开始。我建议求职者可以从面试官的名字开始问候。如果面试官的桌上会有名牌，求职者可以从”Good morning, Mr. ”开始，拉近两人的距离。当面试官问求职者：”How are you?”求职者可以回答：”Couldn’t be better!”显示出个人「愉悦的人格属性」。
当被问及个性时，以2S1H胜出
面试官除了关心求职者的学历及经验(这些可以从履历表来观察)之外，面试官往往也会考核求职者的「个性」及「态度」。这时，建议求职者以”2S 1H”来表达自己的个性。”2S 1H”中，S是’’Serious’’，H是’’Humorous’’的意思。例如，求职者可以说自己的个性是：Diligent, logical and happy. Diligent,和logical，是属於严肃的描述；happy是属於幽默感的描述。但是，在表情上要搭配得宜，例如，说自己是个happy的人的时候，表情也应该是微笑的。如何掌握精准的表情，有赖於对自己性格的了解。
当自我介绍时，要掌握企业需要的讯息
企业需要的讯息为何？显然是求职者的所学所能，是否可以符合企业的需要。例如，求职者工作的长度、所负责的职务内容描述、能运用的技能(例如英语及电脑或某种专业)等等，是面试官最关心的讯息。面试的时间有限，求职者必须先掌握企业的要求，作符合条件之内容陈述。
掌握企业关心的资讯
在有限的面试时间里，求职者要掌握诉求的重点，并以逻辑的方式，一一道出企业所需要知道的讯息。什是企业需要的讯息呢？是求职者的所学所能，是否可以符合企业的需要。那，求职者就要去研究，企业的期待为何？还有，这个职务所需要的「学历、技能、个性、态度」为何？如果求职者掌握了这些资讯，就可以在履历、自传及面试时作「对应」的准备。
面试时，面试官经常会要求职者作「自我介绍」。我认为这跟写自传是一样的方法(中英文自传皆然)。陈述的第一段，求职者要呈现与「寻找的职务目标」相关的学识和技能；第二段，要表达过去的经历籍个人专长，与「寻找的职务目标」相符何处；第三段，表达求职者的学习精神，和「恳请给予面试机会」的意愿。
面试时，求职者很可能被问到某种并不擅长的技能，或缺乏某种经验的项目时，这时，面对面试官的质疑，求职者也有方法可以安然度过！
我要提出四个步骤化险为夷。
1. 承认面试官提出的问题。
2. 举出曾经历过的具体的经验及教训。
3. 提出具体改善的方法。
4. 强调自己学习力极强，表示自己可以很快迎头赶上。
第一项：承认面试官提出的问题，可以「避免」求职者露出「反对面试官」的态度。求职者马上「反对面试官」，是绝对没有好处的！至於举出曾经历过的具体的经验及教训，以及提出具体改善的方法，则可以将过去的成绩具体化！。最後，强调自己学习力极强，表示自己
可以很快迎头赶上，则是化解面试官的疑虑。这样一来，求职者可以马上化弱点为优点。
我在此要提醒求职者，事前的准备很重要。如何将自己脑中大量混乱的资讯，以系统的方式整理及归档，让面对不同问题时可以侃侃而谈，是很重要的。
面试官提出难题，其实不是为了考倒求职者，而是希望藉由问题，了解求职者的能力及个性。英语并非我们的母语，面试时碰到不懂得单字是很常见的。我建议求职者准备一个笔记本，当听不懂某个单字时，可以用笔记下来，然後请教面试官。
例如，你听不懂’’ordinate’’这个单字，你可以请教面试官：Could you give me a simple word about “ordinate”？
通常，只要能明确的点出疑问，面试官都会帮忙。因为，诚如刚才说的：「面试的过程，是为了了解求职者的程度和个性，面试官并非要考倒求职者的那个人！」而且，「面试」不等於「英语程度测验」，面试官可以帮助求职者，
来了解他的问题。
离场时，要表达「信心及礼貌」。
当结束了面试，求职者要表达胜不骄、败不馁的态度。求职者即使感到自己表现不是非常好，也可以以一点幽默感及好的态度加分。例如，离场时，求职者可以说：Thank you very much.
I hope we can see each other very soon. 求职者必须以正面的态度结束这个面试，千万别露出沮丧担心的表情。这样做，至少可以让面试官感受你正面积极的态度及不慌不忙的成熟个性。[ 面试时要问清楚的几个问题]
发布日期：2004-7-5 点击数：1284
俗话说，是骡是马拉出来遛遛。是不是人才一看就知道八九分，所以任何公司招聘时，都会对求职者进行面试。显然，在求职过程中，对于求职者而言，面试是最重要的一步。想要在面试中有突出的表现，你得在事先有充分的准备。当公司有意留用你时，你也千万别忘了问一些跟你工作密切相关的问题，不然正式上班后，后悔就来不及了。
一、工作内容
是什么样的工作，一般在看到招聘岗位就能明白的。但是现在的公司工作岗位越分越细，再加上有的招聘者为了提高自己的招聘档次，会将一些名不见经传的岗位说得诱人无比。比如明明是招聘一般的维修人员，却说成是招聘维修工程师。在这种“光环”的照耀下，很多人都会花了眼，所以在面试时你一定要问好你的工作内容是什么。不然，到时给你增加一些莫明其妙的杂事，会吃哑巴亏的。
二、工作地点和时数
在面试时，一定要问清工作地点。因为公司在各地有很多分公司的话，可能在不同的地
方都会工作。应试者最好能问清楚上班和下班的时间，以及加班的时数限度。这样，你就可以根据自身的条件考虑是否能承受。一般来讲，在面试时，应聘者提出类似的适当的问题，对方都会做出解答。
三、试用期限和培训机会
不管你是不是刚毕业的大学生，公司招聘新人时都会提出一定的试用期限，从三个月至一年不等。应聘者可用较委婉的方式询问，如：“有些公司有新进员工的试用期限和培训机会的相关规定，不知贵公司是否亦有此规定？”如果公司有这些规定的话，应聘者应确认其试用期限及其待遇。一方面可以避免不讲信用的公司欺骗新人，另一方面也可以避免彼此因为沟通的不畅而引起的尴尬。
四、薪水及福利
薪水的多少对任何求职者来说，都是很关心的事情。一般来讲，在面试时，招聘人员都会主动给应聘者说明试用期、正式聘用期的薪水及福利情况。但有时，也有工作人员忘了的时候，面对这种情况，如果应聘者如果直截了当地问薪水可能不是很好，这时，你可以用旁敲侧击的方式，比如以同类公司的薪水为话题，来探询该公司对新进人员的薪水做法。另外，也可以公司的年度业绩为话题，来探询公司对于福利奖金的作法。

本色面试让你得称心工作
2004年10月09日13:50:29千龙网路勇
(我们无意否定求职中的策略，但最终顺利地融入工作环境，得到持续发展，还是要靠个人真实的能力。本色面试摒弃花哨的做法，让主考官将自己看得更清楚，也让自己轻松地赢得称心工作。)视频，让你一次看个够
袁定国，长沙某大学计算机系大四学生，22岁
进入大四后，寻找工作机会便成了重中之重。学校和市里的招聘会，我一场不落地到场了，依然没有找到满意的工作。班上的一些同学开始关注省外的招聘情况，甚至不远千里南下北上去参加面试。坦白说，其实我也想跟他们一起到外省看看。可是，我是名贫困生，还欠着银行的助学贷款，根本没有财力走南闯北。
当温州一家网络公司发布招聘消息时，同学们都被优厚的待遇和良好的发展前途所吸引。当他们启程去温州的时候，我选择独自留守在寝室里。面试当天，我通过电话联络到该公司的人事经理，述说了自己希望视频面试的愿望。开明的经理答应了我，并亲自和我通过视频交流。
我没有刻意地打扮自己，只是刮净了胡子，穿了一身干净的衣服坐在电脑前等待考验。我仔细地回答经理的提问，将自己的计算机等级证书、英语等级证书在内的一些证书和相关资料呈现在探头前，还把自己为某公司建立的网站网址留给经理。对面的经理显然对我比较满意，不过由于并没亲眼看到我，又有些拿不准。
我诚恳地说，我的同学都亲自前往温州面试了，我只是因为经济原因没有去。我还将他们离开后我独自收拾的房间，通过摄像头让他参观。最后，视频那边的经理郑重地点了点头。
面试感言：在网络发达的今日，面试不一定真的要千里迢迢当面“对峙”。只要真诚地面对考官，真实反映自己的情况，视频也能事半功倍地达到面试的效果。
下岗，磨难是我的财富
苏翠英，南京某机械装备厂下岗女工，33岁
去年，厂里开始大面积下岗，领导让我回家待岗，这一“待”就是一年多。在遥遥无期的等待中，我开始琢磨寻找新的职业舞台。
当中国人寿保险公司南京分公司招聘人员时，我便动了去试一试的念头。当家里人了解了我的想法后，一致反对我去面试，他们认为我生性太老实，不适合做这样的工作。老公甚至建议我去支个早点摊，贴补一下家用。不过，家里窘迫的环境反而促使我去加倍努力。
去了保险公司才知道，他们聘请的是类似商场售后人员的工作人员。之前，保险公司都是找一些长相甜美的女大学生，并不曾尝试过请已婚女士。而且，说是售后人员，其实要提高薪资，还是需要拉一些客户的。
在保险公司主管摇头之前，我诚恳地说：“我虽然不是年轻女大学生，但是有信心凭借自己的努力为公司创造业绩。而且，买保险大部分是家庭主妇决定的，像我这样的已婚人士可以给人家信赖感。更重要的是我是一名下岗女工，感受过失去工作的痛苦，会加倍珍惜工作机会，相信会给公司带来最大的回报。”于是，我成了售后服务部第一个已婚员工，而且曾经下过岗。
面试感言：下岗其实是一个坎，跨过了就是坦途。不过，下岗并不是什么羞耻的事情，而且曾经的磨难是未来的财宝。别灰心，只要功夫深，铁杵磨成针，成功的一天就会到来。
不动声色，赢得机会
马世国，武汉某餐厅厨师，21岁
在老家县城跟一位大厨学习了一段时间炒菜，我独自来到了省城武汉。每次有酒店需要请厨师，我都会去试试，一同去的大都是正规职校毕业的学生，手上有厨师等级证书。我和他们一起面试，人家都以为我是去做杂工的。于是，很多次我连试菜的机会都没有，便败下阵来。
一连两个月，我都没找到合适的机会，甚至有了从打杂做起的念头。一天，我在一家酒店进餐，正好有厨师要求辞职，和老板闹得很僵，厨师一直坚持，老板只好答应他干完当天的事，然后给他结账放他走人。
我心底琢磨着怎样见缝插针赢得工作机会。我没有勇气直接毛遂自荐，只是默默地品尝服务员端上来的菜。菜其实还不错，只是火候和刀工有所欠缺。换了平常，我一定不会太在意，这回我装着一副很生气的样子，指责菜做得非常不好，而且指定要老板来解决问题。
老板来后，我指责他的首席大厨，他认为我是在无理取闹。不过，我一一指出菜的不足，详细地说明火候的掌握还有刀工的技巧，很快老板就心服口服了。当我再说出几道酒店没有的特色菜时，老板饶有兴趣地问我在何处高就。很显然，没有工作的我取代了辞职的大厨。
面试感言：随着就业压力日益增加，工作机会越发难以寻找。不过，机会永远垂青有准备的人，当机会来临时，适时抓住并展现自己的才干，成功就离你不远了。
低调求职高调做事
杨超英，重庆某快速冲洗店副经理，27岁
我在重庆做了7年彩扩师，当以前的那家冲洗店转让后，我便失业了。
起初，我开始留意报纸上的招聘信息，后来甚至逐个店去问，别人是否缺人手。可是，每当我告诉别人自己已经有了7年工作经验，要不不相信，要不就说请不起我这样的。其实，我并没对薪水有过分的要求，可能他们担心留不住我吧。
再面试，我便不再透露自己的工作经历，而是主动要求上机操作。我良好的技术终于打动了现在这个冲洗店的老总，他以店内资格最老的彩扩师的工资标准聘请了我。正式被聘用后，店里的同事很快都被我的才能所折服。我开始纠正包括老彩扩员的错误工作程序，还编写了全新的工作手册。
通过市场分析后，我向老总递交了一份详尽的企划案。店里的业绩开始大幅增加，老总也渐渐知道了我是“老江湖”。最近，他还让我做了副经理，对店里的许多事都有绝对发言权。
面试感言：低姿态进入是一种谦卑的做法，更能让怀才不遇的你赢得表演的舞台。等到真正有了表演的机会，那就尽情施展吧，最终慧眼一定不会错过真正的珍珠。
面试中“听”的学问
编辑：snowflake 作者：出处：卓博人才网2004-01-14
周恩来之所以为亿万人赞颂，其中很突出的一条就是他在听别人讲话时态度极其认真，不论对方地位高低、年龄大小，都同样对待。美国有一位外交家曾评价道：“凡是亲切会见过他的人几乎都不会忘记他。他身上焕发着一种吸引人的力量。长得英俊固然是一部分原因，但是使人获得第一印象的是他的眼睛……你会感到他全神贯注于你，他会记住你和你说的话。这是一种使人一见之下顿感亲切的罕有天赋。”
那么，如何听人说话才能取得对方的好感呢？概括地说，应该做到：
首先，要专心。也就是全神贯注地听对方说话，始终以饱满的精神状态，专心致志地注视着对方，脑子里要设法撇开其他的事情，将注意力集中在对方说话的内容上。在对方谈话过程中，你要不时有表示听懂或赞同的声音、动作。如果你一时没有听懂对方的话或有疑问，不妨用婉转诚恳的语言提出不明确的部分，请对方作进一步的解释，这样既能弄清问题要点和实质，又能让对方在心理上觉得你听得很专心，对他的话很重视。要确认提问内容，切忌答非所问。要认真琢磨对方讲话的重点，必要时，你可以进行复述，如：“我同意您刚才所提的……”重复对方强调的问题，往往会促进情感的融通。
其次，要耐心。面试的目的在于让对方了解你、信任你、接受你，而不是与主试人比高下。主考人提起的任何话题，你都应耐心倾听，不能表示心不在焉或不耐烦的神气，不要因对方的叙述平淡而漫不经心，也不要在别人讲不清楚时，流露出烦躁或不满意的神情，更不要在对方讲不同意时，听不下去而反驳或争执。要尽量让对方兴致勃勃地把话讲完，不要不顾对方的想法而发挥一通，不要轻易打断对方的话。如果确实需要插话，应先征得对方同意，用商量的语气问一下：“请等一下，让我插一句”或“我提个问题好吗？”这样可以避免对方对你的误解。
再次，要细心。也就是要具备足够的敏感性，善于理解对方的“弦外之音”，即善于从对方的言谈话语中并找出他没能表达出来的潜在意思。同时要注意倾听对方说话的语调和说话的每一个细节。
为自己争取最好的待遇
文：CHEERS 来源：CHEERS 时间：2004-10-27 10:02:02 点击：62
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
也许你正要进入一家新公司，展开新的生涯旅程。如何适度的为自己争取最好的待遇条件，《商业2.0》提供了以下实用的小技巧。
协商前的准备……
1.直到你确定自己得到这份工作，再开始讨论薪资的问题。一旦确定这家公司真的需要你这位人才的加入，你就掌握了更多的谈判空间，可以为自己争取到更好的条件。
2.了解市场的行情。尽量搜集相关的数据或是统计数据，了解类似职务的薪资水平如何。
3.绝不要透露目前工作的薪水。让对方提出认为合理的数字，然后再进行协商。
当对方提出薪资的数字……
1.立刻回绝不合理的提案。简单而迅速的回答说：这低于我可接受的范围。然后提出你的理由以及数据，说明为什么应该得到更好的待遇。
2.即使对方的提议让你感到满意，也不要立刻接受。至少要求对方给予2天的时间好好考虑，对方有可能因此感到些许紧张，如此一来便提高了自己的筹码。
3.根据对方提议的数字，要求多加10％。当然你得提出具说服力的理由，证明自己值得这样的待遇。
4.事先讲好离职相关的给付费用。听起来有点让人沮丧，不过未来事情的发展很难预料。事先讲清楚、说明白，总比日后撕破脸要好。
如何用英语回答外企面试常见问题?

责任编辑：hpd
[03-6-13 11:39] 作者：亚加达
1. "What can you tell me about yourself?" This is not an invitation to give your life history. The interviewer is looking for clues about your character, qualificat ions, ambitions, and motivations.
The following is a good example of a positive response. "In high school I was involved in competitive sports and I always tried to improve in each sport I participated in. As a college student, I worked in a clothing store part-time and found that I could sell things easily. The sale was important, but for me, it was even more important to make sure that the customer was satisfied. It was not long before customers came back to the store and specifically asked for me to help them. I'm very competitive and it means a lot to me to be the best."
"关于你自己，你能告诉我些什么？"这一问题并非在请你大谈你的个人历史。雇主是在寻找有关你性格、资历、志向和生活动力的线索。
下面是一个积极正面回答的好例子："在高中我参加各种竞争性体育活动，并一直努力提高各项运动的成绩。大学期间，我曾在一家服装店打工，我发现我能轻而易举地将东西推销出去。销售固然重要，但对我来说，更重要的是要确信顾客能够满意。不久便有顾客返回那家服装店点名让我为他们服务。我很有竞争意识，力求完美对我很重要。"
2. "Why do you want to work for us? This is an obvious question and, if you have done your research on the company, you should be able to give a good reason. 0rganize your reasons into several short sentences that clearly spell out your interest.
"Y ou are a leader in the field of electronics. Y our company is a Fortune 5O0 company. Y our management is very progressive."
"你为什么想为我们工作？"这是个明确的问题。如果你对该公司做过调查研究，你应该能够给出很好的理由。你要将你的理由编成几句简短的话清楚地表明你的兴趣。
如可答："你们在电子领域是领头人。你们公司是《财富》杂志评选的500强之一。你们的管理很先进。"
3. "Why should I hire you?" Once again, you should not be long winded, but you should provide a summary of your qualifications. Be positive and show that you are capable of doing the job.
Based on the internships that I have participated in and the related part-time experiences I have had, I can do the job.
"为什么我应该聘用你？"同样，你不应长篇大论，而应提供有关你资历的扼要说明。要肯定自己，表明你能胜任此项工作。
如答："根据我参加过的实习和与此相关的打工经历。我能胜任。"
4. "How do you feel about your progress to date?" Never apologize for what you have done.
"I think I did well in school. In fact, in a number of courses I received the highest exam scores in the class." "As an intern for the X Company, I received some of the highest evaluations that had been given in years.
"对于你至今所取得的进步你是怎样看的？"绝不要对你以前的所作所为表示内疚。
如可答："我认为我在学校表现不错。事实上，有好几门功课我的成绩居全班第一。""在某公司实习时，我获得了该公司数年来给予其雇员的好几项最高评价。"
5. "What would you like to be doing five years from now?" Know what you can realistically accomplish. Y ou can find out by talking to others about what they accomplished in their first five years with a particular company.
"I hope to be the best I can be at my job and because many in this line of work are promoted to area manager, I am planning on that also."
"从今以后5年内你想做些什么？"你要清楚你实际上能胜任什么。你可以事先和他人交流一番。问问他们在某公司的头5年都做了些什么。
如可答。"我希望能在我的职位上尽力做好工作，由于在同一领域工作的许多人都被提为区域负责人，所以我亦有此打算。"
6. "What is your greatest weakness?" Y ou cannot avoid this question by saying that you do not have any, everyone has weaknesses.
The best approach is to admit your weakness but show that you are working on it and have a plan to overcome it. If possible, cite a weakness that will work to the company's advantage. "I' m such a perfectionist that I won't stop until a job is well done.
"你最大的弱点是什么？"你不应该说你没有任何弱点，以此来回避这个问题；每个人都有弱点。最佳策略是承认你的弱点，但同时表明你在予以改进，并有克服弱点的计划。
可能的话，你可说出一项可能会给公司带来好处的弱点，如可说："我是一个完美主义者。工作做得不漂亮，我是不会撒手的。"
7. "What is your greatest strength"?" This is a real opportunity to toot your own horn. Do not brag or get too egotistical, but let the employer know that you believe in yourself and that you know your strengths.
"I feel that my strongest asset is my ability to stick to things to get them done. I feel a real sense of accomplishment when I finish a job and it turns out just as I'd planned. I've set some high goals for myself. For example, I want to graduate with highest distinction. And even though I had
a slow start in my freshman year, I made up for it by doing an honor's thesis."
"你最突出的优点是什么？"这是你"展示自己"的最佳机会，不要吹嘘自己或过于自负，但要让雇主知道你相信自己，你知道自己的优点。
如可答："我认为我最大的优点是能够执着地尽力把事情办好。当做完一件工作而其成果又正合我的预想时，我会有一种真正的成就感。我给自己定了一些高目标。比如说，我要成为出色的毕业生。尽管在大学一年级时我启动慢了些，但最终我以优等论文完成了学业。"
