外企英文面試準備技巧

　　Tip 1 面試前必須做準備

　　面試就像場考試，你必須做考前復習。

　　I think the first and most important thing to say is you need to prepare. It's just like an exam —— you know, could you imagine as a student going into an exam without preparing? I hope not. If you fail to prepare, really you prepare to fail.

　　Tip 2 如何做準備

　　在準備的過程中你需要考慮到以下兩點：一、了解自己并學會介紹你自己;二、了解你想要應聘的企業(yè)。

　　In preparing, you need to think about two things. First of all, yourself. What's really important to you and what kind of skills have you got that you can offer an employer? The other side of preparation is researching the employer. We expect you to have been on the web and done some research. And the candidate who really stands out is the candidate actually who's gone one step further. They may, for example, have downloaded a copy of our annual report and be able to talk about that. They may actually have sought out somebody who works at KPMG and chatted to them about the job and the careers service at the university will help them with that kind of thing.

　　Tip 3 我的準備過程

　　在此，我想與大家分享下我的面試準備經(jīng)驗。首先，我會以很認真、全面的態(tài)度去對待這件事，將可能被問到的問題一一列出。然后自己進行演練。最后，我會請我妻子充當考官，問我那些問題。

　　Let me share with you how I would actually prepare for an interview because I do it really really rigorously. My last interview, I would say I probably prepared for two to three days. First thing I do is to try to think about the organisation and what questions it is going to ask me. And I make a list of all those questions —— maybe ten, twenty, thirty —— what are they going to ask? What do they want to know about? And then what I do is, I develop specific concrete examples which will enable me to answer those questions and I rehearse those. I actually wander round the room, I look in mirrors and talk to myself. And I use a tape recorder to play it back to me. And then the final thing I do is that I go to my wife and I get her to ask me the questions I think I'm going to be asked and we rehearse them again. And she's really helpful because she kind of says, "No, don't do that", "Say it this way!", "You realise you've repeated yourself?" She spots things that I've forgotten.

　　Tip 4 用實例來表述你的能力

　　大多數(shù)企業(yè)都會用能力來評估應聘者，這就意味著我們要用實際例子來表明自己的能力。最好從各個方面來多準備幾個實例，而不僅僅局限于你的學術(shù)成就。

　　Most employers use something called competency based interviewing. And this basically means that what we're looking for are examples of your skills and abilities in practice. So one of the things we might be interested in, for example, is your ability to manage a project. And what we want is a specific example. And we don't always just want the same example repeated over and over again. So we might want an example about a project at university. And we might then press you a bit further and say " Well tell me now about a project in your working life "or "Tell me about a project that you did in some kind of social context". Generally, the best advice is to think about two or three examples which you can talk confidently about and try to make sure that they're drawn from different aspects of life, not just your academic studies, for example.

　　Tip 5 介紹自己時的要點

　　介紹你自己時，最為重要的一點就是你要意識到你談論的是你自己以及你做出的貢獻。

　　What's really important is that you talk about yourself and your contribution. So let's take something like a team project. Yeah, it's good to introduce it and say "I was a member of a five-man team doing this" but what we really want to know is what difference did you make to that team ? Because it's you that we're interested in, it's your skills that we need to know about, because we're recruiting you, not the team.

　　Tip 6 如何談及失敗的經(jīng)歷

　　面試時可以談及自己失敗的經(jīng)歷，但要強調(diào)自己從中學到的`所得，并如何學以致用。

　　It's ok to admit to failures in interview. The key here is to talk about what you learned from that experience and how you'd do it differently next time. So if you...if you led a project, for example, and actually the project fell to pieces, clearly that's bad news - you don't want that to happen. But if you can say "but the next project I was involved in, I did this and that really made a difference and it just shows I learned", then that's fantastic because actually that's waht an employer is looking for: somebody who can learn from their experiences and next time round, avoid those mistakes and in fact, really capitalise on that learning.

　　Tip 7 如何更好得講述你的項目實踐

　　最好用專業(yè)商務術(shù)語描述自己參加過的項目，強調(diào)所取得的項目成果。

　　You know, if you're thinking about a project you can describe it in lots of different ways. You can talk about "I did this, I did that" but a much better approach is to use business language and to talk about how you set objectives, how you prioritised your time, how you focused on outcomes. You're saying exactly the same thing, but you're using business language and business terminology to express it and as an interviewer. I'm sitting here thinking, "Fantasitc! This is a great candidate - this is the person we want to recruit."

　　Tip 8 回答問題時如何組織你的語言

　　建議利用“三點原則”，列出三點，再進行擴充。但注意不要對所有的問題都千篇一律得使用“三點原則”。

　　I think a really key point of advice is to think about how you can structure an answer. and my advice is to think about the 'rule of three'- and I always kind of say, "there are three points to this answer" and actually put some structure around it, so simply say "Well the first point is…", "The second point is…", "And finally the third point is…" because then, if I'm interviewing you I know there are going to be three points and I can follow it very very clearly and it's logical. But just one piece of advice: don't do that to every question, you know, because there's nothing worse than just repeating the same old kind of model, so vary it slightly, but it's a great way of getting the points across – three points, fantastic!

　　Tip 9 如何有效地運用肢體語言

　　恰當?shù)剡\用肢體語言能非常有效地表達你的觀點，首先要在面試開始時放松，另外一點是注意眼神交流，此外微笑也能為你的面試加分。

　　What can you do with your body language to really be effective? I think the first thing to say is, just make sure you're sitting comfortably and relaxed in your chair at the start of the interview. Just the way you sit can convey the fact that you're confident and relaxed. The second thing is, try to use your hands a bit during the interview. You actually use gestures because that's a really – I'm doing it now – you know, it's a really effective way to convey a particular message and give some emphasis. And the other thing is eye contact. You know, try to make eye contact with the individual, not in a fixed stare so that you frighten them to death but actually in a kind of really gentle way. Smiling is fantastic

　　because if you smile during an interview – just try it! – the interviewer will smile as well. It’s a fantastic way of building rapport. So I think those are the key points about body language and how to make an impact in a different way at an interview.

　　Tip 10 面試是雙方的交流平臺

　　好的面試官會盡量讓你在面試時感到輕松自在，希望你能發(fā)揮自己的最佳狀態(tài)，以便他們做出合理的選擇。所以面試是個雙方選擇雙方交流的平臺，但你要懂得如何把自己“賣出去”。

　　A good interviewer will make you feel at ease, will make you feel relaxed, will want you to give your best. If I have a candidate who's really struggling I try to help them as much as possible. I really do want the candidate to be able to tell me something about themselves and something about their skills so that I can make a reasonable judgement about them. And I think it's really awful when somebody leaves an interview and I thought, "What a shame, there's somebody who I know could do a really good job in this organisation but they just haven't sold themselves". And I suppose that's a really important message – that in the final analysis, it's a two-way conversation but you've got to sell yourself.
