如果你找到了最理想的工作，但是有一件事还横在当中：面试。“万一我说错了什么怎么办？”你在想。别担心了！好消息是许多的雇主都在他们的面试中问同样的基本的问题。因此只要准备一下，你就可以避免胡言乱语而失去你梦想工作的可能性了。

You’ve found the perfect job, but there’s one thing standing in the way: the interview. “What if I say something wrong?” you think. Stop worrying! The good news is that many recruiters ask the same basic questions in their interviews. So with a little preparation, you can avoid putting your foot in your mouth and saying goodbye to your dream job.

 

 

      面试者常常以这样的问题开始。记得，他们想要听到的是你的工作技巧，不是你的个人生活。不要说：〝I was born in Taipei〞、〝I like to play computer games〞、或是〝I have two brothers.〞，告诉他们有关你职业生涯的发展，你学到的东西或是你是如何具体的某些工作技巧。

Interviewers often start with this question. Remember, they want to hear about your job skills, not your personal life. Don’t say, “I was born in Taipei,” “I like to play computer games,” or “I have two brothers.” Tell them about your career growth, what you’ve learned or how you’ve developed specific skills.7

 

 

      继续，自我推销！这个问题的关键是给出具体的例子。避免只是简单的列出几项，象：〝I’m really organized, punctual and get along well with others.〞，接着具体的说到你刚才的提到的内容：〝For example…〞，并解释你在之前的工作中是如何运用此特长的。

Go ahead, sell yourself! The key to this question is to give specific examples. Avoid simply offering a list, like: “I’m really organized, punctual and get along well with others.” Follow up anything you mention with, “For example …” and then explain how you demonstrated this quality in a previous job.

 

 

      雇主们想要知道你为什么想为他们工作。因此就让他们了解你很清楚公司的运营模式以及你对此工作非常有积极性。不要以〝Umm〞、〝I don’t know〞、〝It seemed like a good career move〞、或是〝Ihaven’t been able to find anything else interesting.〞。记得雇主们想知道你能带给公司什么，而不是公司能带给你什么！

Employers want to know why you want to work for them. So show them you understand what the company does and that you’re enthusiastic about the work. Don’t start with “Umm,” “I don’t know,” “It seemed like a good career move,” or “I haven’t been able to find anything else interesting.” Keep in mind that the interviewer wants to know what you can bring to their company, not what the company can bring to you!

 

 

      可能你上一份工作非常的糟糕，但是面试并不是谈论的合适的场合。就算是真的，不要对你现有的或是过去的雇主或是同事进行负面或是武断的评论：〝I didn’t agree with the company’s direction〞、〝I got no recognition for my work〞、〝My boss was totally unreasonable.〞，想这样的评论会让你听起来不可理喻。

Maybe your last job was terrible, but an interview is not the place to talk about it. Even if it’s true, never make negative or opinionated comments about your current or past employers or co-workers: “I didn’t agree with the company’s direction,” “I got no recognition for my work,” “My boss was totally unreasonable.” Statements like these make you sound unreasonable!

 

 

      面试官通常以此问卷结束面试。询问具体的问题以显示你非常了解该公司，但却希望了解更多的内容。不要问那些你早就该知道答案的问题，象：〝What does your company do?〞，或是〝Could you tell me your name again?〞。此外，不要问薪水或是和假期相关的问题：〝When do you give raises?〞、〝How much vacation time can I expect?〞，在听到了他们告诉你〝We’d like to offer you the job〞才去问此类的问题。

Interviewers usually finish an interview with this question. Ask specific questions that show you already know a lot  about the company, but want to know more. Do not ask questions that you should already know the answers to, like,“What does your company do?” Or, “Could you tell me your name again?” Also, don’t ask salary or vacation-related questions: “When do you give raises?” “How much vacation time can I expect?” Save those questions for after you hear, “We’d like to offer you the job.”
