英语面试学生

竟然没人回答

我在外企多年，经过从民企到外企第一次一句英文都讲不出来的面试，也经过在外企内部跳槽的各种面试，相信有一些经验可以帮到你。针对你是毕业生的特点，底下是建议：

首先英文面试无非就是半小时一小时的双向面对面或者电话交流，逃不出听说能力的长期培养。而且有想法要进外企，长期英文的学习积累肯定是必须的，否则一旦进入外企铺天盖地的语言应用环境会压得你喘不过气。在外企十几年，深深感觉在业务领域没有什么是突击不了的，比如你进入一个新的工作领域，多花点时间多用心，几周一个月肯定能上手，唯独英语不经过长期积累一定不会有质的改变。比如现在告诉你下个月去美国主持一个3天的50人参加的Workshop大会，就算你不吃不喝每天专门练你一定不可能在一个月提升到游刃有余的程度，就是这个道理。而关于一般性如何提高英语，这方面知乎资料很多不多说。只是告诉你这个是Long-Term一定要花时间的事情。

当然我们也不可能把英文完全练好再进外企，黄花菜都凉了。而且外企其实是一个促进和帮助你英语学习的大好环境，给你薪水还教你英语，这么好的事不早点利用真是可惜 :-)。

所以突击针对性的准备也是很必要的。这就是Short-term。

开始说问题前，大方向说几个面试基础规则

对应聘公司和应聘职位的全方位了解极其重要，没有人会愿意招一个对公司对这个职位不了解没有热情的人，这部分的功课直接影响你下面一些问题回答的质量。了解的渠道可以来自

招聘网站的JD (job description)

招聘公司本身的网站

平常的观感

如果有人脉在这个公司想办法直接了解这个职位JD之外的信息.

认真听完问题，不要打断；回答时放慢语速，争取说清楚，不要着急；无论是面谈还是电话面试，面带微笑，别觉得电话面试不用，声音是有笑容的进而有感染力的。

无论什么问题，回答时间不要超过2分30秒。太长显得你太自我，而且2分30秒说不完的答案说明你的回答不够简练，很啰嗦

问题听不清楚大胆要求重复，不要客气。常用句型记住2个就行

Can you please repeat your question? I didn't hear your question clearly, the line was cutting off.

Sorry, can you say it again?

面试无非是一个人问问题，一个人回答的游戏。大部分时间问问题的是面试者Interviewer，一般到最后也会给被面者Interviewee问问题的机会。请注意，给被面试者问问题的时间虽然不多，但是怎么问问题也很重要，看后面的说明。

面试官的问题

无非分两种，一般性和专业性

一般性的问题每个面试都可能碰到，和这个职位的专业无关。常见一般性问题非常好的信息来自 Interview Questions Answered，里面不但列出问题，还列出面试官问每个问题背后的目的，建议回答的思路和参考回答。当然没有one size fits all的标准答案，只能你自己根据对自己的了解判断来写。如果写不出来，说明你英文需要迫切提高的点到了。万里长征第一步，想进外企，从这里开始。

一般性问题

Tell me about yourself

Your Goal: To prove to the interviewer that you have the skills and experience to be the ideal or perfect candidate for the job

Keep the answer short at about two minutes.

Focus on work-related skills and accomplishments, not personal information.

Tell the interviewer why you think your work-related skills and accomplishments would be an asset to the company.

Describe your education or work history very briefly.

Tell the interviewer about things you have done and jobs you have had related to the position you are interviewing for.

Mention one or two personal characteristics that have helped you accomplish your goals, giving short examples to illustrate.

这里很重要是简要。如何做到简要，取决于你如何针对这个公司情况和岗位要求做针对性自我介绍。你是毕业生简历相对比较简单，对我们10多年工作经验的人来说，如果你不分主次把10年的经验讲完面试官一定要睡着，一定要有取舍，只强调和新职位有关联的背景和经历。

Why did you leave your last job / Why are you looking for a new job

Your Goal: To minimize any problems and to show that you had positive reasons for leaving previous positions

Mention positive reasons for leaving.

Never criticize supervisors, co-workers, or the company/organization.

Don’t mention major problems with management.

Tell the interviewer about any neutral reasons for leaving.

Stay positive no matter how bad the situation you are leaving may be.

Use the right words so you don’t sound self-serving. Instead of saying “I left to seek better opportunities” say “I'm looking for a situation which will use more of my skills and experience.”

Avoid sounding like a “job hopper.”

Turn this into an opportunity to tell the interviewer about your skills and abilities, if possible.

Keep your explanation short or the interviewer may think you’re making excuses.

新人一张白纸，所以可以侧重为什么这份工作吸引你，这里继续考验你对职位的了解，想想如果你出乎考官意外说出很多这个公司方方面面深入的信息，考官会不会对你刮目相看。

对跳槽多次的老人来说，对新工作的了解之外，还很重要的是不要说过去职位不好负面的东西，比如和老板水火不容啊，哪怕这个真的是你离开的主要原因，也一定要Stay positive。面试官不会要一个满满负面情绪的人，找一些中立的原因，比如职业生涯发展，更好的发挥自己的长处等。

Why do you want to work here

Your Goal: To show that you know a lot about the company and that your qualifications match the company’s needs

Find out all you can about the company, including the department where you would work and the people you would work for.

Research the company’s products or services and the positive things it has done for the community or society.

Be familiar with the company’s mission statement and core values.

For large U.S. companies, look for information about the company through the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or the Better Business Bureau, in addition to the “About Us” section on the company’s own website.

Don’t make the answer all about you. Focus on the positive things about the company, including its reputation in the industry.

Tell the interviewer how your qualifications meets a need in their company.

Show the interviewer that you are being selective about where you want to work and are not willing to take just any job offered to you.

这边第四条针对了解公司信息给了更详细的指引。这里要求你说公司，少说你自己。

Where do you see yourself in five years

Your Goal: To assure the interviewer that if the company hires you, you will continue working for them, and that you have given careful thought to your future career plans.

Reassure the interviewer that you are not a “job hopper” by telling the interviewer that you plan to stay and grow with the company.

Research the company to find out the logical next positions to move up in the company.

If there is more than one direction you can move in to move up in the organization, name these paths and talk about your options depending on your future interests and performance, and the company’s needs.

Show that you are motivated and have definite plans about doing more in the company.

Avoid naming a specific job or position or you will seem too narrow or inflexible.

Do not talk about personal goals or plans.

Questions about marriage, babies, and childcare are illegal, but if you don’t plan to make any big personal life changes soon, you can volunteer that information.

背后的潜台词是希望你不是一个打一枪换一个地方心浮气躁的Job hopper。欧美企业大部分都是理解甚至鼓励你最短2年换一个岗位，在公司内部健康的流动，当然也因具体老板部分而异。但是没有人愿意看到你简历上都是1年1年半频度的跳槽，真有这样的经历相信你每次面试都会被考官针对这个问专门的问题，准备接招吧。在描述将来时也要注意这个问题，不要显得你在这个新岗位不会做很久，同时基于你对公司的理解，这个职位附近可能的发展机会也是回答这个问题的要点。

What are your strengths

Your Goal: To show how your strengths match the needs of the job

Know your strengths in three categories:

Knowledge-based skills – These are skills developed through education and experience, such as computer skills, university degrees, languages you speak, and technical ability.

Transferable Skills – These are skills that you can take from one job to another, such as being able to manage people well, being good at solving complex problems, being good at planning, and being a good communicator.

Personal Traits – These are qualities about you are a person, such as being dependable, being hard working, being flexible, and being outgoing.

Review with the interviewer your strengths, which are already noted in your resume and cover letter.

Give specific evidence or examples of how your strengths have helped you in the past.

准备的时候可以分3类，这样回答起来显得有条理有内容。还有一定要注意举具体例子来支撑，不要总是大话空话。

What are your weaknesses

Your Goal: To name weaknesses that can be improved on and that may be an asset in the right circumstances

Don’t try to present a strength as a weakness, such as being a workaholic or being too detail-oriented.

Keep the weakness a small one.

Show how you are working to improve on your weakness.

Give specific evidence or examples of how you’re working to overcome your weakness. Some options:

Tell the interviewer about a weakness you have already overcome.

Tell the interviewer about a mistake you made in the past to show that you can learn from your mistakes.

Tell the interviewer about a weakness that does not relate to the duties of this job.

看到第一点很多人笑了，包括我。太贱了，确实有人把经常加班当短处来说，是笑呢还是笑呢。具体诚恳的指出自己的弱点，而且这里发挥演讲能力的时候到了，可以通过将弱点及如何克服弱点反过来可以体现你Self-awareness和Self-motivating的能力。

同时避免这个弱点和要应聘的工作关联紧密，比如面试项目经理的岗位就不要老是提自己没有时间观念等。

专业性的问题这里就很难总结了，行业不同道行深浅，问的问题给的答案都大有不同。对从事行业领域词汇的准备肯定是必不可少，再来就是临场针对问题如何回答的有条理，有内容也是需要常年锻炼积累，可以看我马上要完成的另一篇帖子“如何提高口语表达能力”。

面试者的问题

按套路，外企一定会给你问问题的时间和机会。别犯傻客气说No, thank you，那么你已经代替面试官对自己说No了。有时候确实问很弱智问题比不问问题好，但是有所准备提出有质量的问题，能表现出你对公司的了解，是否积极主动，是否有想法。

比如可以说我在公司网站各大社交媒体私人关系各方面尽力对公司和这个职位有了了解了，但是某个地方还不是很清楚，您能否对公司职位在这个地方进一步说明下blabla。很贱对不对，在问问题前其实已经有意暴露我对这个面试很用心，花了时间准备，有热情，积极主动。。此处赞美省略三百字，其实考官回答什么不重要，你的目的已经达到。

我经常用的套路问题是 What is the top quality this candidate needs to have in order to become a best performer on this new position。这个什么职位都能问，问题也不算俗，不同的面试不同考官的回答也经常很有趣，确实也是面试你的收获之一。

套路问题之外，如果你不紧张，英文游刃有余，通过前面回答考官的问题你可能也能积累一两个临场问题，也非常好。问这样的问题体现出你对面试的重视，全神贯注，英语听力好，所有Points都能get到等等。

有什么问题可以留言交流。
