第六章 面試

第七節(jié)外企面試最常見(jiàn)的36個(gè)英文問(wèn)題(2)

這些道理沒(méi)有人告訴過(guò)你 作者:楊萃先,顏培程,劉佩,楊鳳仙 著


  2. What’s the meaning of your email address? 你的電子郵件地址有什么寓意么?

  問(wèn)題分析: 當(dāng)代青年男女個(gè)性張揚(yáng), 所以連email地址也頗為獨(dú)特。令筆者或迷惑或微笑的email 地址有很多, 比如neverlazy, bighead, lazyfish, 52n52n, yulovehong等等。與上一個(gè)問(wèn)題一樣, 善于交流的面試官往往樂(lè)于給你一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)展示自己的個(gè)性。

  較差回答: Lazyfish? Oh, I admire the goldfish for living an easy life. Compared to goldfish, human beings live a fast-paced life. So I chose this email address to make me feel a bit relaxed.

  點(diǎn)評(píng): 個(gè)性傾向于過(guò)慵懶的生活, 唉!

  較差回答: 52n52n? oh, it means “I love you, I love you,” because 5 sounds like “I” in Chinese, and 2 for “l(fā)ove”, n for “you”. I registered this address to please my girlfriend, hehe.

  點(diǎn)評(píng): 公開(kāi)示愛(ài)?嘖嘖, 除了他的女朋友會(huì)覺(jué)得甜蜜蜜, 別的人一律會(huì)露出特虛偽的笑容或胃里泛酸。唉!

  回答示范: Neverlazy? Oh, I want to encourage myself never to be lazy! You know I am a hardworking person. So, it’s my slogan!

  點(diǎn)評(píng): 在email地址中都要給自己勵(lì)志的女子, 一定是個(gè)超級(jí)工作狂, 好呀! (這名女子如愿進(jìn)入了寶潔公司的CBD部門。)

  3. Where are you from? Where is your hometown? 你是哪里人?家鄉(xiāng)在什么地方?

  問(wèn)題分析: 很多老外在中國(guó)工作居住多年, 甚至自詡為中國(guó)通, 他們可能會(huì)順便問(wèn)問(wèn)你是哪里人, 拉近和你的距離。

  回答示范1: I was born and raised in the city of Wuhan. As far as I know, our company has a branch office near Hanzheng Street, and it’s quite a big office.

  點(diǎn)評(píng)1: 這個(gè)回答說(shuō)出了該公司在武漢的地址, 展示了一下自己提前所做的功課。

  回答示范2: Well, my hometown is a small town which you probably have never heard of. The name of the town is Dehui, which means “good moral” in Chinese. The town is located in the middle of China’s Northeast. When you look at the map, it looks like the eye of the rooster. You know, China looks like a rooster on the map, and the Northeast region looks just like the head of the rooster. My hometown "Good Moral Town" is unknown to most people because it's quite poor. The average income for a family is less than one thousand RMB per month.

  點(diǎn)評(píng)2: 絕妙的回答!一方面生動(dòng)地告訴外國(guó)面試官, 你的家鄉(xiāng)是東北這個(gè)雞頭上眼睛部位的一個(gè)小縣城, 另一方面, 讓他知道你家鄉(xiāng)的人們平均一個(gè)月才不到1,000元的收入, 令日入斗金的老外頗為欷覷。讓他欷覷了, 你就被記住了。被記住, 是被錄取的前提。

  二、 Education 關(guān)于教育背景的問(wèn)題

  4. Why did you select your major area of study? 你為什么選擇了這個(gè)專業(yè)?

  問(wèn)題分析: 外國(guó)面試官更喜歡提“為什么”的問(wèn)題, 他希望申請(qǐng)人是一個(gè)有主見(jiàn)的人。

  回答示范1: I was quite good at mathematics and physics back in high school so I chose a related major, Telecommunications. I also applied for the major of computer science. You know, these two majors are the hottest these years.

  點(diǎn)評(píng)1: 實(shí)話實(shí)說(shuō)。

  回答示范2: As a matter of fact, I didn’t select the major of Geography Education at all, because I have never wanted to be a teacher. I had chosen Business Administration, Economics and Logistics Management when I applied to Zhongshan University, but unfortunately I failed to get into these hottest majors. The score I got on the College Entrance Examination was about ten points less than the minimum requirement. The school allocated me to a cold major, Geography Education, hehe. Luckily, I could select a second focus. I chose Public Relations Management to be my minor area of study. What was that saying? "When God closes the door, he opens a window." Hehe.
