面試時的英文問題解析

諸葛孔明

1. Whats your work experience?

"work experience" is the type of work youve done in the past. If you havent started working yet you can say "Right now Im still a student." or "Im a recent grad and Ihavent started working yet." In the second sentence, "recent grad" is short for "recent graduate" and means that you have just finished school.

請告訴我你過去的工作經驗，工作經驗就是你過去所做的工作。如果尚未開始工作，就可以回答“Right now Im still a student.”（現在我還是個學生。）或者說“Im a recent grad and I havent started working yet.”（我剛剛畢業，還沒有開始工作。）“recent grad”是“recent graduate”的縮寫，意思是剛剛畢業。


2. Whats your greatest weakness?

This is a popular question that western employers like to ask to make candidates nervous! In fact, they ask this to know how you respond to a difficult question. You shouldnt answer by telling your greatest weakness since you might not get the job! Instead, you can tell them something that isnt directly related to the job position.

你最大的缺點是什么？西方老板特別愛問這個問題，讓面試者感到很緊張。事實上，他問這個問題是看你對棘手問題的反應。你沒必要如實回答你的弱點，因為那有可能讓你得不到這份工作。相反，你可以告訴他們一些與工作不直接相關的事情。


3. Why do you feel you are qualified for this job?

This question is a good opportunity to brag a little bit. You should talk about some extra skills you have that maybe wasnt included in your resume, or talk about your greatest strength in more detail.

你為什么覺得自己勝任這份工作？這時候你要充分發揮你的“自夸”本領。你可以講述一些簡歷資料里面沒有包括的技能；或者是再詳細強調一下你的特長。


4. What kind of salary did you have in mind?

Salary is how much money you earn, usually per year. When asked this, its best to answer with a salary range or approximation and not an exact figure. This shows that you are familiar with the industry if you know what the approximate salary should be.

你期望的薪水是多少？“salary”就是你賺多少錢，通常是年收入。回答這個問題時，最好說出一個大致范圍，而不是一個確切的數字。如果你能說出這個工資范圍，那就說明你對此行業非常了解。


5. If hired, when could you start work?

When answering this its best not to say you can start right away. This might make you seem very desperate for a job. A safe answer would be "I can start at the beginning of next month."

如果雇傭的話，你什么時候開始工作？回答這個問題時。一定要注意！不要說我馬上可以工作。那會讓對方認為你非常迫切地需要這份工作。一個非常保險的回答可以是“I can start at the beginning of next month.”（我下月初可以開始上班。）


6. What kind of work does the posi-tion involve?

You can ask this to clarify exactly what kind of work youll be doing.

這個職位包括哪些工作？通過問這句話，你可以清楚地了解到你的工作內容。
