想找一份满意的工作吗? 面对面试中的英语问答环节会不会搞得你手足无措?下面是小编整理的英文面试常见问题,欢迎大家来阅览。
英文面试常见问题一般有这些:
1.家庭,成长环境。
2.教育背景,专业优势,人格魅力。
3 参加或组织过的活动。
4 你对这份工作的认识以及工作态度。
1. What is important to you in a job?
Mention specific rewards other than a paycheck for example, challenge, t
he feeling of accomplishment, and knowing that you have made a contribution.
2. Why do you want to work for this organization?
Cite its reputation, the opportunities it offers, and the working condit
ions. Stress that you want to work for this organization, not just any organ
ization.
3. Why should we employ you?
Point to your academic preparation, job skills, and enthusiasm about working for the firm. Mention your performance in school or previous employment as evidence of your ability to learn and to become productive quickly. If the job involves management responsibilities, refer to past activities as proof of your ability to get along with others and to work as part of a team.
4. If we hire you, how long will you stay with us?
Answer by saying along these lines: "As long as my position here allows me to learn and to advance at a pace with my abilities."
5. Can we offer you a career path?
Reply: "I believe you could, once I know the normal progression within the organization. Can you tell me about it?" The answer may be revealing.
6. What are your greatest strengths?
Give a response like one of the following: "I can see what needs to be done and do it", "Im wiling to make decisions", "I work well with others," "
I can organize my time efficiently."
7. What are you greatest weakness?
Identify one or two, such as the following:" I tend to drive myself too
hard", " I expect others to perform beyond their capacities", " I like to se
e a job done quickly, and Im critical if it isnt." Note these weaknesses c
ould also be regarded as desirable qualities. The trick with this question i
s to describe a weakness so that it could also be considered a virtue.
8. What didnt you like about previous jobs youve held?
Discuss the things you didnt like, but avoid making slighting reference
to any of your former employers.
9. How do you spend your leisure time?
Mention a cross section of interests-active and quiet, social and solitary -- rather just one.
10. Are there any weaknesses in your education or experience?
Take stock of your weaknesses before the interview. Practice discussing them in a positive light. Youll find that they are minor when discussed along with all the positive things you have to offer.
11. Where do you want to be five years from now?
Saying that youd like to be president is unrealistic, yet few employers want people who are content to sit still. You might say, "in five years, Id like to have my bosss job. " If you cant qualify for your bosss job by then, you may not be the fright candidate.
12. What are your salary expectations?
If you are asked this at the outset, its best to say, "Why dont we discuss salary after you decide whether Im right for the job? "But if the interviewer asks this after showing real interest in you, speak up. She or he will probably try to meet your price. If you need a clue about what to ask for, say, " Can you discuss your salary range with me?"
13. What would you do if....?
This question is designed to test your reposes. For example: "What would
you do if your computer broke down during an audit?" Your answer there isnt nearly so important as your approach to the problem. And a calm approach is best. Start by saying, "One thing I might do is ..." Then give several alternative choices.
14. What type of position are you interested in?
Job titles and responsibilities vary from firm to firm . So state your skills instead, such as "Im good at figure work," and the positions that req
15. Tell me something about yourself.
Say youll be happy to talk about yourself, and ask what the interviewer
wants to know. If this point is clarified, respond. If not, tell why you feel your skills will contribute to the job and the organization. This question gives you a great opportunity to sell yourself.

面试的最后需要做些什么?
关于真正的面试最后要提醒的是:结束面试时要说:“我对这份工作非常感兴趣,我下一步要干些什么?”朋友,你是否在热切地盼望着?如果聘用你,那将是他们的幸运!
One last great tip about the actual interview: Always end the interview with, “I am very interested in the position. What are the next steps to take?” Boy, are you eager? They’d be lucky to have you!
准备好你要提出的问题
在面试结束前,考官会俯身对你说:“你对我有什么问题要问吗?”这时,你必须提出问题。首先,不要急于提问,要显出 你在思考有些问题在问的样子,然后从你事先想的问题中选出一个合适的提问。这里有风个备选问题:
请您说说一个标准的工作日是什么样的。/ 对您来说,在这家公司荼好在哪里?/ 是否有充分机会参加一些讨论会、培训班,以了解公司的方方面面?/ 您为什么加入这家公司?
考官喜欢谈论他们自己,所以这些问题绝对会赢得他们的好感。
Have questions of your own. Toward the end of interview. the interviewer is going to lean into you and say,” Do you have any questions for me? You must have questions. First, don’t rush into your answer. Look as if you are thinking about whether you have any questions and then ask an appropriate one from the list you’ve thought about beforehand. Here is a handful of potential questions:
How would you describe a typical workday?/What is the best part of working at this company for you? /Are there significant opportunities to take seminars, classes to learn more about the different facets of the company?/Why did you join the company?
Interviewers love to talk about themselves, so these questions will win them over every time.
常见问题做好准备
针对以下通常的面试问题事先准备好答案:
谈一谈你自己的情况。/ 这个职位什么地方最吸引你?/ 设想一下今后5年、10年、20年你会在哪里?/ 你最终的职业目标是什么?/ 谈谈以前在工作中解决过的棘手问题。/ 你最大的优点是什么?/ 你对上一份工作有何感想?/ 你和其他应聘者的不同之处是什么?/ 你发前的经历、学历和大学活动与这份工作有何关联?
最重要的是你要把自己宣传成一个能解决问题的人。想一想你干过的工作,大学里做过的兼职,参加过的志愿者活动,或者你创建过的俱乐部。然后描述你是如何解决具体问题的。描述时要把经历分成三段:1.你所遇到的问题是什么?2.你是如何对它时行分析的3.你执行的解决方案是什么。
Have answers ready for these popular interview questions:
Tell me a little about yourself./What interests you most about this position?/Where so you see yourself in 5,10,20 years?/What is your ultimate career goal?/tell me about a project that had a tough problem that you solved./What are your greatest strengths?/What did you like about your last job?/What separates you from other candidates?/How do your previous experience/academic preparation and college activities relate to this work?
Most importantly, sell yourself as a problem solver. Think about the work you have done, the job you had in college, volunteer work you did, or the club that you founded. Then proceed to illustrate how you solved a particular problem by breaking that experience into three parts:1)The problem you encountered,2)How you analyzed it, and 3)The solution you implemented.
面试中的“陷阱”问题
序:在面试时,你能为考官所做的最好的事就是使他或她的工作变得轻松,如果考官在与你交谈后心中感到沉重的话,这对你很不利,但是,如果你们的交流留给他人这样一种感觉——“嘿,我喜欢这次交流”,那么你离得到这份工作就不远了。
第一种是“陷阱”问题,几乎在所有面试中都会出现。“陷阱”问题是指“你在哪些方面最需要改进”或者“你的缺点是什么”之类的问题。你真实的回答或许是你不拘小节,或者是你十分腼腆,但是无论你回答什么,都不要把你的个人缺点拿出来“分享”,相反,你要尽力找一个算不上是真正的缺点,甚至稍微接近理想化的个性特征来回答。譬如说,“我喜欢把一件工作从头干到尾,而不是只做其中的一个环节,而见不到完成的结果。如果不能经历工作的整个过程,我会觉得有点沮丧。”或者,“有时我很难拒绝别人的请求,结果就承担了许多份外的工作。”如果你实在想不出什么话好回答,你可以尝试以下这句经久不衰(尽管有些过时)的答谢:“我是个完美主义者。我所要改进之处是不要对自己太苛刻,并确信自己能把诸事外理妥当。”
The best thin you can do for your interviewers is to make his/her job easier. If interviewers walk out after talking to you feeling like they carried the weight of the conversation, which is a strike against you. But if your exchange leaves them with a feeling of,“Hey, I enjoyed that,” that could move you that much closer to hearing that you got the job.
First is the trap question, which comes up in almost every interview. The trap question is some variaton on“ What is the area you need most improvement in? ”or“ What is your area of weakness?” The real answer may be that you have are lousy to attention detail or that you are incredibly shy. Whatever you do, don’t share your personal weaknesses. Instead, try to find something to say that isn’t a real weakness,but a slightly less-than-ideal characteristic. For example: “I prefer to see a project through from start to finish rather than working on a single component and never seeing the finished product. I sometimes find it a bit frustrating to work without that overall context.”“ Sometimes I have a hard time saying no to people, and I end up taking on more than my share of work.” If you really can’t think of anything to say, you can always go with this time-tesed (albeit cliched) comeback: “I’m a perfectionist. I need to improve on not being so hard on myself and making sure I get everything right. ”
为何要离开你以前的公司
对为何要离开你以前的公司而对新的公司产生兴趣之类的问题时,应该谨慎回答。 这样的问题(以及它们的答案)的意图在于证实你对新公司确有读音,而不是由于你被解雇或者在以前的工作岗位上犯了严重的错误。如果考官很尖锐地问你:“你为什么被解雇?”回答要简单扼要。譬如“那里的环境不和睦,许多人都被迫离开”就是个很好的回答。
Be on the lookout for questions about why you left your old company and why you are interested in the new one. These questions(or their offspring) are designed to make sure your interest in the new company is sincere and not due to you being fired and/or having the interviewer throws at you:“Why were you fired?”keep the answer simple and brief.“It was a hostile environment in which many people were let go,”is a good way to handle it.
