英文面试
这个问题，一来是想要了解你是什么样的人，二来是想看看你是否知道如何重点式地自我简介。 在回答时，要针对应征工作的性质来凸显自己的特色，可以多用形容词，并且引用过去的工作经验，但是不必提及公司组织的名称，再者，你还可以谈谈未来的生涯规画；但如果你是个社会新鲜人，就可以谈谈在校时的丰功伟业。 比方说，今天你打算去应征行销的职务，你就可以说︰ I am creative andmotivated. I worked on several major marketing projects with positiveresults. I am now looking for a challenging marketing position in anestablished company. （我有创意、又积极。曾负责数项大型的行销项目，皆有成效。我现在希望在一家深具规模的公司内，担任有挑战性的行销职务。）
问题二：Why do you think we should employ you?（你认为我们为何要雇用你？）
雇主问此问题，希望你试图证明自己是最佳人选，并且测试你是否熟悉应征职务的工作内容。 回答时，要迎合该公司对该职务的期望，不过切记别给人狂妄自大的印象。假设你今天要应征机械工程的工作，你就可以说︰ I am suitable for the position,not only because I have a masters degree in mechanical engineering, butalso because I have worked in this field for more than five years. I believe that my experience can be put to use in further developing your business. （我很适合该职位，不只因为我有机械工程学的硕士学位，更因为我在该产业已经有五年多的工作经验，我相信，我的经验可以派上用场，进一步推动贵公司的事业。）
问题三：What classes did you like best back in school?（在学校你最喜欢哪门课？）
此时，雇主想了解你的学习能力，以及你有兴趣的专业课程是否跟工作扯得上边；此外，个人在求学过程的好恶，会反应在不同的工作岗位上。 回答时，一定要表示自己以好学著称，喜欢学习新知，尤其是与应征工作有关的课程。假如你今天要应征会计的工作，你就可以回答 Statistics, accounting and calculus were my favorite subjects because I am good at crunching numbers. （统计、会计与微积分是我最喜爱的科目，因为我对于计算复杂的数字很在行。）
问题四：What do you think are your greatest strengths and weaknesses? （你自认自己最大的优劣势分别为何？）
雇主问这样的问题，旨在探知你是否有足够的自我认知，以及你是否是该职务的不二人选。 在回答时，分寸的拿捏很重要，因为谈及优势时，不希望自己听起来骄傲；相反地，把自己的缺点一一点出，又显得自己无能。 我建议各位，不要否认自己有缺点，你可以提出一两个与工作无关的缺点，再加上与职务息息相关的优势。 比方说你可以回答︰My greatest weakness is that I value leisure time spent with my family and therefore I treasure my weekends and free time in the evenings. My greatest strength is my commitment to work. I strive for excellence and always try to do my best. （我最大的缺点是我珍惜与家人相处的闲暇时间，所以我很重视周末与晚间休息的时间。我最大的优点是我对工作的执着，我追求卓越，总是努力把工作做得尽善尽美。）
问题五：What do you think are your strongest skills?（你认为你最强的技能是什么？）
雇主如此一问，一想了解你的专业技能是否符合职务的需求，二是希望更进一步地知道，你是否能够评析自己的能力。当回答这个问题时，一定要针对应征工作的特点以及需要作答，这样公司才会认为你对他们是有裨益的。 假设你今天要应征客服人员的工作，你就可以回答 My strongest skills are handling complaints with great patience. I think solving customer complaints is a wonderful way to win customer loyalty, and I am happy to deal with any problems people may have. （我最强的专长技能就是耐心地处理抱怨，我认为抱怨是赢得顾客忠诚度的好方法，我也很乐意解决人们遇到的问题。)
问题六：Why do you want to work for us?（你为什么想要替我们工作？）
主管问你这个问题有两个目的：第一，他们想要知道你对公司了解的程度；第二，他们想知道你是否是真心诚意地希望替该公司服务。如果一位潜在员工能够表现十足的向心力，愿意贡献，得到录用的机率相对就会提高。 在到任何公司面试之前，一定要事前作好功课，对应征的公司、与工作内容要非常清楚。提醒各位一点，如果你之所以想要某个职位，是因为薪水非常高，千万别在回答时提到这一点，免得雇主会认为你眼中只有钱。你可以这么回答： Your company is a renowned leader in the industry and has high growth potential. 贵公司是业界知名龙头之一，成长潜力十足。 I wish to work for an established company where my talents and expertise can be fully put to use. 我希望在一家深具规模的公司里工作，这样我的才能与专长便能完全派上用场。 It seems clear to me that your company can challenge my abilities and provide a good opportunity for professional development. 我深知，贵公司能够激发我的才能，并且提供我专业成长的好机会。
问题七：How much do you know about our company?（你对本公司了解多少？）
其实，这个问题跟问题六有点像，旨在测试你对公司的了解程度，看看你在面试前的功课是否有做足，如果你在两手空空、毫无准备的情况之下去面试，对该公司与职务一无所知，当然被录取的机率就会相对变低。 在去面试前，有一些功课一定要准备充分：第一，产业趋势与该公司在产业中的定位，与该公司的基本背景与发展；第二，应征职务的内容，以及该公司未来成长的方向。 如果你想应征计算机零件物流方面的工作，你可以回答： Ive read the annual reports of your company of the past three years, and I have come to realize that your company enjoys leadership in domestic distribution of computer parts. 我阅读了贵公司过去三年的年报，我知道贵公司是国内计算机零件的物流龙头。 I believe that my management experience will be an asset to your company. 我相信，我的管理经验对贵公司会是项资产。

2. -健康状态如何？-How is your health?无论什么人都比较喜欢健康的人，在同等条件下，会选择健康人。建议应聘者充满自信地回答I am in excellent health. 非常健康。
3.关于自我介绍/个人的提问 该问题是应聘者将自身的才智展现在聘用者面前的最好机会。首先，应聘者简单介绍一下自己的经历、技术、业绩、目标等，然后说明对应聘企业的关系和如何对企业做出贡献。如果是刚走出校门的新职员，建议强调相关领域的听课经历或教育背景。此时，切忌在此类背景上耗时太长，甚至超过对自身的说明时间。另外，即使是有关自身的，也应舍弃琐碎的往事。 -- I'm a production assistant with a B.A. in communications and I have three years of solid broadcasting and public-relations experience. I have extensive experience in developing and researching topics, preinterviewing guests, and producing on-本地 videotapings. I have a tremendous amount of energy and love to be challenged.

I'd like to be a part of that winning team. 我毕业于广播通信专业，曾担任制造部门的负责人，拥有3年多的广播及PR相关经历，在主持、嘉宾接待、现场摄影方面积累了丰富的经验。我天生就喜欢工作，喜欢挑战新的工作，不回绝辅助性职务和学习新事物。我长期关注贵广播公司，感受着贵公司的创新性接触方法和迅速成长。如果有机会，我希望能在这样的广播公司工作。--I graduated from Duke University with a B.S.

在这里列出一些最常用的句子，要熟读，在面试中要熟练。看起来很简单，可是要做到脱口而出，不一定很简单。
一、 第一句话（first word） 见到考官的第一句话，很关键，不用说的很复杂。可以是一个简单句，但一定要铿锵有力。展示出自信和实力。千万不要来一句“sorry, my English is poor”.常见的开头有： 1. Good morning! may I introduce myself .. 2. I am glad to be here for this interview. First let me introduce myself. I’m peter white, my NO is …(北大清华等学校参加面试的考生很多，可能对考生有一个编号，说一下自己的编号显得很职业，也很正式。)
二、作自我介绍--成长经历（making a self-introduction --developing history） 有很多学校要求做一个自我介绍，这一问题并非在请你大谈你的个人历史。考官是要在你的介绍中寻找有关你性格、资历、志向和生活动力的线索。来判断你是否适合读MBA。你可以先介绍一下成长的经历，出生地和毕业学校等内容。在这一部分要介绍的有些特色，让老师在听几十个人流水帐式的介绍中增加一点乐趣，就权且当作MBA人际关系管理的第一个挑战吧！ I come from ******,the capital of *******Province. I graduated from the ******* department of *****University in July ,1997. （很简单的一句话，一定要发音准确！要把毕业学校的英文准确名字搞清楚了。） 你可以借光一下家乡的名人，可以用这句高水平的话，展示高超你高超的口语。 You know, there is a saying that “The greatness of a man lends a glory to a place”. I think the city really deserves it. 另外在介绍性格和爱好的时候，适合把家庭介绍结合在一起，可以说父母给了你哪些方面良好的影响。不要流水帐似的介绍家庭成员。可以这么说： Just like my father, I am open-minded ,quick in thought and very fond of history. Frequently I exchange ideas with my family during super. In addition , during my college years, I was once the chairman of the Student Union. These work have urged me develop active and responsible characters.
在这里给出描述个人品质常用词汇的中英文对照，可以参考。 able 有才干的，能干的 adaptable 适应性强的 active 主动的，活跃的 aggressive 有进取心的 ambitious 有雄心壮志的 amiable 和蔼可亲的 amicable 友好的 analytical 善于分析的 apprehensive 有理解力的 aspiring 有志气的，有抱负的 audacious 有冒险精神的 capable 有能力的，有才能 careful 办理仔细的 candid 正直的 competent 能胜任的constructive 建设性的 cooperative 有合作精神的 creative 富创造力的 dedicated 有奉献精神的 dependable 可靠的 diplomatic 老练的，有策disciplined 守纪律的 dutiful尽职的 well-educated 受过良好教育的 efficient 有效率的 energetic 精力充沛的 expressivity 善于表达 faithful 守信的，忠诚的 frank 直率的，真诚的 generous 宽宏大量的 genteel 有教养的 gentle 有礼貌的 humorous 有幽默 impartial 公正的 independent 有主见的 industrious 勤奋的 ingenious 有独创性的 motivated 目的明确的 intelligent 理解力强的 learned 精通某门学问的 logical 条理分明的 methodical 有方法的 modest 谦虚的 objective 客观的 precise 一丝不苟的 punctual 严守时刻的 elastic 实事求是的 responsible 负责的 sensible 明白事理的 sporting 光明正大的 steady 踏实的 systematic有系统的 purposeful 意志坚强的 sweet-tempered性情温和的 temperate 稳健的 tireless 孜孜不倦的
三、作自我介绍--职业发展（making a self-introduction --career development） 这是很关键的一部分，也是MBA考官会重点考察的一部分。要把工作经历和MBA的学习以及职业发展方向作为一个整体来谈，让老师感到你选择MBA是一个理性的选择而不是一时冲动，选择MBA是职业发展中的一个必然选择，而不是因为找不到工作。你可以用这些句型： 1、In the past years, I’ve worked at IBM as a software engineer. In my work, I found communication and management is very important. I always believe that one will easily lag behind unless he keeps on learning. So I choose MBA! if I am given a chance to study MBA in this famous University, I will stare no effort to master a good command of communication and management skill.（在过去的几年中，我作为一个软件工程师在IBM工作。在工作中，我发现交流和管理非常的重要。我一直认为一个人很容易落后，如果不持续学习的话，所以我选择了MBA！如果我有机会在这个著名的大学学习MBA，我会不遗余力的掌握沟通和管理的技能。） 2.Held a post concurrently in Zhongxing CPA. from December,1998 to May,1999. and mainly worked on evaluating project finance and made up cash flow tables.（1998年11月至1999年5月在中兴会计师事务所兼职，主要从事财务评价 、现金流量表的编制分析和产业的市场调查与跟踪研究等。）
3. Assistant to the General Manager of Shenzhen Petrochemical Industrial Corporation Ltd. Handled the itinerary schedule of the general manager. Met clients as a representative of the corporation. Helped to negotiate a $5,000,000 deal for the corporation. （深圳石油化工集团股份有限公司总经理助理。安排总经理的出差旅行计划时间表。作为公司代表接见客户。协助公司谈成了一笔五百万美圆的交易。）
4. assistant to manager of accounting department of a joint venture enterprise. Analyzed data and relevant financial statistics, and produced monthly financial statements. （一家合资企业会计部门经理的助理。分析数据及相关财务统计数字，而且提出每月的财务报告。）
5. Production manager: Initiated quality control resulting in a reduction in working hours by 20% while increasing productivity by 25%.(生产部经理：引入质量控制，使工作时数减少了20%，而生产力则提高了25%。)
6. Staff member of Shanxi Textiles Import and Export Company. Handled import of textiles from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan. Increased sales by 25% from 1990 to 1993. Made frequent business trips to these places to negotiate with textile mills. (山西纺织品进出口公司职员。处理从香港、澳门、台湾进口纺织品事宜。从1990年到1993年增加了25%的销售额。经常出差到这些地方跟纺织厂商洽谈。)
7. Tourist guide during the summer vacation for Beijing International Travel Service. Conducted tours for foreign tourists on trip around the city. (暑假期间为北京国际旅行社当导游。负责外国旅客在城区的观光旅游。)
8. Sales manager. In addition to ordinary sales activities and management of department, responsible for recruiting and training of sales staff members. (销售部经理。除了正常销售活动和部门管理之外，还负责招聘与训练销售人员。)
关于过去工作的描述是很重要的，同学们一定要熟记这些句型。要根据自己的工作经历改造这些句子。 如果你的工作有过比较多的改变，你可以这样来描述原因： 9. Unfortunately I have had to leave my position, as my employers have been forced to liquidate their business due to the worldwide economic adversity.（很不幸地，本人不得不离职，因这一次世界性的经济不景气，使我的雇主不得不结束业务。）
10.The only reason why I am leaving the present position is to gain more experience in a trading office. （本人之所以离开目前的工作岗位，唯一的理由是希望能在一家贸易公司获得更多的经验。）
11. I now wish to enter an office where the work requires greater individual responsibility and judgment than here, and where there is more opportunity for advancement. （目前，本人希望进入一家可以担负较大责任的公司，并希望能提供升迁机会。）
12. My reason for leaving the company is that I wish to get into the advertising business. （本人离职的原因是希望在广告业方面有所发展。）
13. My reason for leaving my present employment is that I am desirous of getting broader experience in trading.（本人离职的理由：希望在贸易方面，能获得更广泛的经验。）
