英語面試題和答案

　　4. "What are your greatest strengths and weaknesses?"

　　“你最大的優(yōu)勢和弱點是什么?”

　　This question is quite a tricky one. There is a fine line between criticising yourself too much and sounding boastful. When talking about your weaknesses, focus on how you have overcomethose weaknesses to become a better employee. This way you're sneakily talking about strengths without sounding too big-headed.

　　這個問題比較難拿捏分寸。在過于自我批評和聽起來像吹牛之間有一條界限。當(dāng)你談你的弱點時，集中討論你如何克服這些弱點而成為了一個更好的職員。這樣的話你是在暗中談?wù)撃愕膬?yōu)點而不顯得太自大。

　　For example, if you're a naturally disorganised person, tell the interviewer how you devised a system to organise all of your workload as efficiently and clearly as possible. Or maybe one of your weaknesses is a lack of experience in a certain area of work? Tell the interviewer how you are enthusiastic about plugging that gap by working more in this area.

　　比如，如果你天生沒有條理，告訴你的面試官你是如何想出一個系統(tǒng)來盡可能高效而清晰地管理你的工作任務(wù)?；蛘吣愕娜觞c可能是缺乏這一領(lǐng)域的工作經(jīng)驗?告訴你的面試官你是多么地充滿激情通過在這領(lǐng)域多加工作來填補差距。

　　Language to use:

　　使用的語言：

　　 Used to/no longer do: I used to have problems organising my workload until I came up with a system for clearly categorising all my tasks.

　　 曾經(jīng)/不再做：我曾經(jīng)在組織我的工作任務(wù)時有困難，直到我想出了一個系統(tǒng)能夠清晰分類我所有的任務(wù)。

　　 Present perfect with “always”: I've always been very good at communicating ideas to people.

　　 用“一直”的現(xiàn)在完成時：我一直擅長和他人交流想法。

　　5. "What did you like best and least about your last job?"

　　“對于你上一個工作，你最喜歡和最不喜歡的方面是哪個?”

　　You may have hated your last job and everyone who worked there, but this is not the place to reveal that. Prospective employers want to hear positivity and good vibes from you. So remember to focus on work-related aspects that you enjoyed; for example, you could say you enjoyed opportunity to learn from more experienced employees and the supportive environment created by the managers.

　　你可能討厭你上一個工作和所有在那工作的人，但是在這里不是你揭露你真實想法的地方。你未來可能的雇主想要從你這聽到積極和好的反響。所以記住要專注于你享受的與工作有關(guān)的方面;比如，你可以說你享受從有經(jīng)驗的員工身上學(xué)習(xí)的機會和管理者營造的互相支持的氣氛。

　　When talking about what you liked least, use it as an opportunity to show how enthusiastic you are about new challenges you would face in the new job (see question two). For example, talk about how you would have liked to work on more varied projects or to have been given more responsibility. This will make you sound ambitious and proactive.

　　當(dāng)我們討論你最不喜歡的方面時，使用這個機會來表現(xiàn)你對在新的工作中會遇到的新挑戰(zhàn)(見第二個問題)的激情。比如，你可以討論你是如何想從事不同的項目，或者承擔(dān)更多的責(zé)任。這將使你顯得更有雄心而積極主動。

　　Language to use:

　　使用的語言：

　　 Past simple: I really enjoyed working with such experienced colleagues. They taught me so much.

　　 一般過去時：我真的很享受和有經(jīng)驗的同事共事，他們教了我很多。

　　 Would have + past participle: I would have loved to work on bigger projects that pushed my abilities more.

　　 (要不…)應(yīng)該會+過去分詞：我應(yīng)該會喜歡從事更大的項目來增強我的能力。

　　6. "Give an example of a problem you faced at your last job and how you solved it."

　　“舉例說明你在上一個工作中曾遇到過的困難及你是如何解決它的。”

　　This is the opportunity you've been waiting for to show the interviewer you really know the job inside and out. Give concrete, real-life examples of when you've used your skills to solve a problem. Try to focus on something which shows you as resourceful (creative and flexible),dynamic (proactive and engaging) and full of initiative (actionable and self-driven).

　　這是一個你一直等待的機會來給你的面試官展示你非常透徹地理解這份工作。給出具體，結(jié)合實際生活的例子來闡明你如何用你的能力解決了一個問題。嘗試著把重點放在能表現(xiàn)你足智多謀(有創(chuàng)造力，靈活)，有活力(主動，積極參與)，充滿首創(chuàng)精神(隨時準(zhǔn)備付諸實踐，自我驅(qū)使)的方面。

　　If you are applying for a job in the same industry you work in now, feel free to use technical language to explain the problem and the solution. If it's a different industry, remember that your interviewer may not know what you're talking about; so instead use common every-day terms to explain what you did.

　　如果你在申請一個和你現(xiàn)在工作在同一個領(lǐng)域的工作，不要拘束使用技術(shù)用語來解釋問題和解決辦法。如果這是一個不同的行業(yè)，要記住你的面試官可能不了解你在說什么;因此，要使用日常用語來解釋你做過什么。
