外企面试
David:So tell me what do you know about job interviews?能告诉我你对求职面试了解多少呢?
You:For a job interview, there are several parts, the first one is knowing how to write a resume, the second is how to write a cover letter and the third is how to answer interview questions. 求职面试分好几部分,首先要了解怎样写简历,其次是怎样写求职信,最后是怎样回答面试问题。
David:What do you think is appropriate to do in an interview? What do you think you should wear? How should you prepare? 你认为在单独面试中怎样做比较得体?首先,你认为应该穿什么?或者说怎样准备面试?
You:I think if I had the chance, I would wear a suit and tie (for women: “business suit”). What to wear is not the biggest issue, it is more important to answer the questions well. I think logical thinking is paramount. 如果是我,我会穿西装打领带。其实穿什么不是最重要的,回答好问题才更重要。我觉得逻辑性是很重要的。
David:Tell me about some examples of interview questions? 能给我举个这样的例子吗?
You:如果你参加麦肯锡的面试,他们会问你对公司的看法和你今后的打算。
David:What are your questions to these questions?那你怎么回答这些问题呢?
You:I would reply that I like Mckenzie’s consulting work, and believe it will be an interesting job. Secondly, the company has a leading position in the industry and employs many talented people. This will be a great learning opportunity for me. Thirdly, once I have graduated from McKenzie, perhaps I can have my own consulting firm. 我会这样回答:首先,我喜欢麦肯锡的咨询工作,而且相信它会很有趣;第二,贵公司在同行业中处于领先地位,有一大批极具天赋的雇员,这对我来说是个很好的学习机会;第三,当我离开麦肯锡的时候,我可能就有能力开自己的咨询公司了。
