普通回答: Actually; Sushi is my nickname。 My friends gave me this name because I like to eat the Japanese food sushi。
点评: 这个回答体现出你是个什么样的人呢?在中国吃寿司价格不菲, 如果吃寿司吃到了朋友给你起了“寿司”这个外号的地步, 这个申请人一定不会是囊中羞涩的人。同志们想一下, 我们在面试的时候, 是把自己伪装成“艰苦朴素”, 还是“锦衣玉食”呢?即使现如今寿司已经跌价到人尽可食的地步, 你这个回答也只是在告诉面试官: 嘿, 我可是个好吃的人啊!比较一下以下的这个回答, 你就知道哪个更胜一筹了。
回答示范1: As a matter of fact; Sushi is a nickname my friends gave me; because I like sushi and like to make sushi。 I can make about ten different kinds of sushi! My friends say that my personality is a bit like sushi; simple but good; hehe。
点评1: 与刚才的回答相比, 这个回答体现出你是个什么样的人呢?一个擅长制作寿司的女孩子一定是动手能力比较强的, 而且喜欢做一些琐碎小事的人。同时, 把寿司的优点引申成自己的个性优点: 简单而美好, 真是一个不错的比喻。
回答示范2: The name King may sound a bit aggressive; I hope it won’t make you feel unfortable。 As a matter of fact; I chose the name King simply because it sounds like my Chinese name Jing。 But; there is also a hidden meaning in it; that is; I wish to conquer diseases like a King!
点评2: 如果你给自己起了一个类似“国王”这样比较aggressive的名字, 就得想好怎么样解释才能让面试官知道你并不是一个过分aggressive的人。这个回答体现了该申请人热爱自己医生职业的特点。
回答示范3: My given name in Chinese is Meng; so I chose Monk to be my English name。 I admire the spirit of monks; you know; abstinence and tolerance。
点评3: 回答得妙呀, 不仅仅真实, 而且展现了自己的独特个性, 告诉面试官自己身上有和尚般的优秀品质: 克制欲望、 容忍。面试官只要不想嫁给你, 就一定会喜欢这样的回答。
第七节 外企面试最常见的36个英文问题(2)
2。 What’s the meaning of your email address? 你的电子邮件地址有什么寓意么?
问题分析: 当代青年男女个性张扬, 所以连email地址也颇为独特。令笔者或迷惑或微笑的email 地址有很多, 比如neverlazy; bighead; lazyfish; 52n52n; yulovehong等等。与上一个问题一样, 善于交流的面试官往往乐于给你一个机会展示自己的个性。
较差回答: Lazyfish? Oh; I admire the goldfish for living an easy life。 pared to goldfish; human beings live a fast…paced life。 So I chose this email address to make me feel a bit relaxed。
点评: 个性倾向于过慵懒的生活, 唉!
较差回答: 52n52n? oh; it means “I love you; I love you;” because 5 sounds like “I” in Chinese; and 2 for “love”; n for “you”。 I registered this address to please my girlfriend; hehe。
点评: 公开示爱?啧啧, 除了他的女朋友会觉得甜蜜蜜, 别的人一律会露出特虚伪的笑容或胃里泛酸。唉!
回答示范: Neverlazy? Oh; I want to encourage myself never to be lazy! You know I am a hardworking person。 So; it’s my slogan!
点评: 在email地址中都要给自己励志的女子, 一定是个超级工作狂, 好呀! (这名女子如愿进入了宝洁公司的CBD部门。)
3。 Where are you from? Where is your hometown? 你是哪里人?家乡在什么地方?
问题分析: 很多老外在中国工作居住多年, 甚至自诩为中国通, 他们可能会顺便问问你是哪里人, 拉近和你的距离。
回答示范1: I was born and raised in the city of Wuhan。 As far as I know; our pany has a branch office near Hanzheng Street; and it’s quite a big office。
点评1: 这个回答说出了该公司在武汉的地址, 展示了一下自己提前所做的功课。
回答示范2: Well; my hometown is a small town which you probably have never heard of。 The name of the town is Dehui; which means “good moral” in Chinese。 The town is located in the middle of China’s Northeast。 When you look at the map; it looks like the eye of the rooster。 You know; China looks like a rooster on the map; and the Northeast region looks just like the head of the rooster。 My hometown 〃Good Moral Town〃 is unknown to most people because it's quite poor。 The average ine for a family is less than one thousand RMB per month。
点评2: 绝妙的回答!一方面生动地告诉外国面试官, 你的家乡是东北这个鸡头上眼睛部位的一个小县城, 另一方面, 让他知道你家乡的人们平均一个月才不到1;000元的收入, 令日入斗金的老外颇为欷觑。让他欷觑了, 你就被记住了。被记住, 是被录取的前提。
二、 Education 关于教育背景的问题
4。 Why did you select your major area of study? 你为什么选择了这个专业?
问题分析: 外国面试官更喜欢提“为什么”的问题, 他希望申请人是一个有主见的人。
回答示范1: I was quite good at mathematics and physics back in high school so I chose a related major; Telemunications。 I also applied for the major of puter science。 You know; these two majors are the hottest these years。
点评1: 实话实说。
回答示范2: As a matter of fact; I didn’t select the major of Geography Education at all; because I have never wanted to be a teacher。 I had chosen Business Administration; Economics and Logistics Management when I applied to Zhongshan University; but unfortunately I failed to get into these hottest majors。 The score I got on the College Entrance Examination was about ten points less than the minimum requirement。 The school allocated me to a cold major; Geography Education; hehe。 Luckily; I could select a second focus。 I chose Public Relations Management to be my minor area of study。 What was that saying? 〃When God closes the door; he opens a window。〃 Hehe。
第七节 外企面试最常见的36个英文问题(3)
点评2: 这个回答似乎很长, 但是却不得不这么长。这是一个典型的中国特色, 如果你的分数够不上第一志愿, 学校就把你打入某一个“冷宫”专业去, 而你为了进入这所一流的大学不得不屈服。这种怪现象制造出很多感觉自己比窦娥还冤的“冤男怨女”, 学着“地理教育”却痛恨从事教师职业, 学着“国际政治”却连国际新闻都懒得看!这个回答的优点在于: 第一, 向外国面试官普及了一下中国特色; 第二, 强调了自己对商业和管理一贯的热诚; 第三, 告诉对方其实自己高考只差10分才没进去最热门的专业; 第四, 自己是个不轻言放弃的人, 主修学不成用辅修来弥补; 第五, 把上帝拉进来, 显出你的幽默。
回答示范3: I selected Business English as I was quite good at English back in high school。 Apart from this; my high school teachers remended that I select a major related to business; since I showed some good qualities for business management at a young age。 So; I chose this major; business plus English; two in one; hehe。
点评3: 这个回答强调了自己的两大优点: 第一, 英语好; 第二, 早在高中就已经是老师心目中适合从商的人。自夸而不着痕迹, 实在是高哇!
5。 What subjects were your favorite? Why? 你最喜欢的课程是什么, 为什么?
问题分析: 与中国面试官一样, 对于应届毕业生, 外国面试官经常问问有关学业方面的问题。面试官喜欢的申请人, 是对自己专业的优缺点分析得头头是道的人。
回答示范1: I liked Marketing Principles and Sales Management because the two courses provided us with the most up…to…date information on marketing and sales; including the origin and development of some famous brands; Pepsi; Nestle; and the local brands; Lining; Wang…lao…ji and so on。 I felt that I already stepped into the business world when studying these courses。 They were fantastic!
点评1: 喜欢的专业和自己申请的职业有紧密关联, 而且提到知名品牌的名字, 很容易使人产生共鸣。
回答示范2: I like the subjects that include lots of experiments; for example; CAD and Circuit Design。 I found that I can learn more quickly by doing experiments than only studying the theories。 I guess it’s partly because I am good with my hands; and doing experiments gives me a chance to learn in a creative way。
点评2: 利用课程说到自己“善于动手”和“有创造力”的优点, 不错。
回答示范3: My favorite courses are mostly in my minor area of study; Public Relations; as my major Geography Education is not really my interest。 I like the courses of PR Crisis; Corporate Image and Media Relations not only because their content is interesting and useful; but also because they are taught in a very interactive way。 Most teachers have an overseas MBA degree so they taught us as MBA students。 It's really cool; you know; we usually did the case studies on our own first; and then presented our opinions in front of the whole class。 I loved those subjects!
点评: 的确有很多同学并不喜欢自己的主修课程, 那么, 请像这位同学一样, 告诉面试官你真正的兴趣在哪里。
