英文面试时如何回答离职原因

　　面试的时候几乎一定会被问到“为什么辞掉上一份工作?”或者“为什么想要离职?”之类的问题。回答这类问题的关键是理由必须正当，并且强调自己对未来的工作充满憧憬。

　　Before we delve into the specifics on answering the question positively, let's first establish how you shouldn’t answer the question:

　　不过在你找出一堆正当理由之前，首先要切记在回答这些问题的时候，有些话你是一定不能说：

　　Don't badmouth your previous or current employer.

　　不要说前任公司的坏话。

　　Don't badmouth your previous or current boss.

　　不要说前任老板的坏话。

　　Instead, you want to keep the conversation positive and focused on the job you're targeting. Here are a few examples of how to answer this question, whether you were laid off, fired or are leaving on your own.

　　你应该针对自己的目标职位，尽量说一些正面积极的东西。下面就公司裁员，被解雇，和辞职三种情况，教大家几个正确回答这类问题的方法。

　　Laid Off

　　公司裁员

　　The company was cutting back on expenses, and unfortunately, my job was one of the 600 cut.

　　公司为了削减开支裁员600人，很不幸的我成为了其中的一位。

　　I was laid off along with my entire department due to company restructuring.

　　因为公司结构重组，我们整个部门都被裁掉了。

　　The company hired a new manager who “updated” my team, cutting out current employees to bring on members of her old team. I understand that was her right, and it has enabled me to open myself to new and better opportunities.

　　公司新外聘了一个经理，她为了组建自己的团队，把现有的部门员工都逼走了。我明白她的立场，她有权这么干，不过无所谓，这也赋予了我新的选择和更好的机会。

　　Fired

　　被解雇

　　Looking back, I realize that I made some bad choices and should have done things differently. I've taken this as learning experience so I can avoid those mistakes in the future. I hope I can have the opportunity to prove this to you.

　　回头细想，我意识到自己的确是做了一些错误的选择，我当初应该积极地做一些改进。我未来必定会引以为鉴，不会重蹈覆辙。希望你们能给我个机会，让我证明给你们看。

　　My talents and competencies were not a good fit with the needs of my previous company, but they seem like a perfect match for the role you have open. Would you like to hear more about my experience in graphic design?

　　之前的职位其实并不适合我，在那里我无发施展自己的天赋以及技能。但我觉得自己十分胜任贵公司招聘的这个职位。或许我可以跟你多讲一些我在平面设计方面的经验?

　　I was dealing with a number of personal problems that led me to disconnect from work, and ultimately led to my departure. I had the time to take care of these issues and am back, focused and ready to exceed your expectations.

　　我因为需要处理一些紧急的私人问题而导致无法全身心投入工作，最终离开了公司。我休息了一段时间，把问题处理好了。现在我的状态是完全没有问题的，已经准备好重新投入工作，我不会让贵公司失望的\\\'。

　　Quit

　　主动辞职

　　I'm looking for opportunities with more responsibility and potential for advancement, where I can challenge myself and use my production skills in a different capacity.

　　我希望寻求一份职责更丰富、晋升机会更多的工作。我希望新的工作能有新的挑战，同时我也可以在新环境里继续发挥自己的生产技术。

　　I left my previous job when my spouse was transferred and am looking for an opportunity in our new area.

　　因为我的另一半被调职到这里了，所以我辞掉了我的上一份工作，随他/她来这边寻求新的工作机遇。

　　The hour and a half commute I was making each day at my previous employer was wearing me down. I would prefer to work closer to home.

　　每天一个半小时的通勤时间简直令我疲惫不堪。我希望找一份离家里近一点的工作。

　　Honestly, I wasn't planning to leave, but I came across this opportunity which seems like an exciting challenge that exactly matches my skill set.

　　老实说，我本来是没有打算要离职的。但我觉得这个职位真的太适合我了，我不想错过这个这么好的机会。
