外企面试常见问题剖析

外企面试常见问题剖析
问题一：Could you please describe yourself?（能否请你形容一下自己？）
这个问题，一来是想要了解你是什么样的人，二来是想看看你是否知道如何重点式地自我简介。 在回答时，要针对应征工作的性质来凸显自己的特色，可以多用形容词，并且引用过去的工作经验，但是不必提及公司组织的名称，再者，你还可以谈谈未来的生涯规画；但如果你是个社会新鲜人，就可以谈谈在校时的丰功伟业。
I am creative and motivated with logicality and execution. And I like challenged work. When I studied in school I took the responsibility of secretary of the student union. And during holiday I worked as an intern in Siemens quality department with positive results. Although I am young and without rich experience, I can assure these defects will be improved in my future. I am now looking for a challenging newcomer position in an established company.

问题二：Why do you think we should employ you?（你认为我们为何要雇用你？）
雇主问此问题，希望你试图证明自己是最佳人选，并且测试你是否熟悉应征职务的工作内容。 回答时，要迎合该公司对该职务的期望，不过切记别给人狂妄自大的印象。
I am suitable for the position, not only because I have a bachelor degree in automation, but also because I have worked in this field for a long time.(公司具体要求) I believe that I would take benefit to our company in further to develop your business.
问题三：What classes did you like best back in school?（在学校你最喜欢哪门课？）
此时，雇主想了解你的学习能力，以及你有兴趣的专业课程是否跟工作扯得上边；此外，个人在求学过程的好恶，会反应在不同的工作岗位上。 回答时，一定要表示自己以好学著称，喜欢学习新知，尤其是与应征工作有关的课程。假如你今天要应征会计的工作，你就可以回答 Statistics, accounting and calculus were my favorite subjects because I am good at crunching numbers. （统计、会计与微积分是我最喜爱的科目，因为我对于计算复杂的数字很在行。）
问题四：What do you think are your greatest strengths and weaknesses? （你自认自己最大的优劣势分别为何？）
雇主问这样的问题，旨在探知你是否有足够的自我认知，以及你是否是该职务的不二人选。 在回答时，分寸的拿捏很重要，因为谈及优势时，不希望自己听起来骄傲；相反地，把自己的缺点一一点出，又显得自己无能。 我建议各位，不要否认自己有缺点，你可以提出一两个与工作无关的缺点，再加上与职务息息相关的优势。
I am creative and motivated with logicality and execution. And I like challenged work. On the other hand, because I am young so I without rich experience in this field, but I’m sure I will improve these defects in my future life.
问题五：What do you think are your strongest skills?（你认为你最强的技能是什么？）
雇主如此一问，一想了解你的专业技能是否符合职务的需求，二是希望更进一步地知道，你是否能够评析自己的能力。当回答这个问题时，一定要针对应征工作的特点以及需要作答，这样公司才会认为你对他们是有裨益的。 假设你今天要应征客服人员的工作，你就可以回答 My strongest skills are handling complaints with great patience. I think solving customer complaints is a wonderful way to win customer loyalty, and I am happy to deal with any problems people may have. （我最强的专长技能就是耐心地处理抱怨，我认为抱怨是赢得顾客忠诚度的好方法，我也很乐意解决人们遇到的问题。)
问题六：Why do you want to work for us?（你为什么想要替我们工作？）
主管问你这个问题有两个目的：第一，他们想要知道你对公司了解的程度；第二，他们想知道你是否是真心诚意地希望替该公司服务。如果一位潜在员工能够表现十足的向心力，愿意贡献，得到录用的机率相对就会提高。 在到任何公司面试之前，一定要事前作好功课，对应征的公司、与工作内容要非常清楚。提醒各位一点，如果你之所以想要某个职位，是因为薪水非常高，千万别在回答时提到这一点，免得雇主会认为你眼中只有钱。你可以这么回答： Your company is a renowned leader in the industry and has high growth potential. 贵公司是业界知名龙头之一，成长潜力十足。 I wish to work for an established company where my talents and expertise can be fully put to use. 我希望在一家深具规模的公司里工作，这样我的才能与专长便能完全派上用场。 It seems clear to me that your company can challenge my abilities and provide a good opportunity for professional development. 我深知，贵公司能够激发我的才能，并且提供我专业成长的好机会。
问题七：How much do you know about our company?（你对本公司了解多少？）
其实，这个问题跟问题六有点像，旨在测试你对公司的了解程度，看看你在面试前的功课是否有做足，如果你在两手空空、毫无准备的情况之下去面试，对该公司与职务一无所知，当然被录取的机率就会相对变低。 在去面试前，有一些功课一定要准备充分：第一，产业趋势与该公司在产业中的定位，与该公司的基本背景与发展；第二，应征职务的内容，以及该公司未来成长的方向。 如果你想应征计算机零件物流方面的工作：
I’ve read the annual reports of your company of the past three years, and I have come to realize that your company enjoys leadership in domestic distribution of computer parts. 我阅读了贵公司过去三年的年报，我知道贵公司是国内计算机零件的物流龙头。 I believe that my management experience will be an asset to your company. 我相信，我的管理经验对贵公司会是项资产。
