外企面试最常见的36个英文问题
回答示范3： I selected Business English as I was quite good at English back in high school. Apart from this, my high school teachers recommended that I select a major related to business, since I showed some good qualities for business management at a young age. So, I chose this major, business plus English, two in one, hehe.
点评3： 这个回答强调了自己的两大优点： 第一， 英语好； 第二， 早在高中就已经是老师心目中适合从商的人。自夸而不着痕迹， 实在是高哇！
5. What subjects were your favorite? Why? 你最喜欢的课程是什么， 为什么？
问题分析： 与中国面试官一样， 对于应届毕业生， 外国面试官经常问问有关学业方面的问题。面试官喜欢的申请人， 是对自己专业的优缺点分析得头头是道的人。
回答示范1： I liked Marketing Principles and Sales Management because the two courses provided us with the most up-to-date information on marketing and sales, including the origin and development of some famous brands, Pepsi, Nestle, and the local brands, Lining, Wang-lao-ji and so on. I felt that I already stepped into the business world when studying these courses. They were fantastic!
点评1： 喜欢的专业和自己申请的职业有紧密关联， 而且提到知名品牌的名字， 很容易使人产生共鸣。
回答示范2： I like the subjects that include lots of experiments, for example, CAD and Circuit Design. I found that I can learn more quickly by doing experiments than only studying the theories. I guess it’s partly because I am good with my hands, and doing experiments gives me a chance to learn in a creative way.
点评2： 利用课程说到自己“善于动手”和“有创造力”的优点， 不错。
回答示范3： My favorite courses are mostly in my minor area of study, Public Relations, as my major Geography Education is not really my interest. I like the courses of PR Crisis, Corporate Image and Media Relations not only because their content is interesting and useful, but also because they are taught in a very interactive way. Most teachers have an overseas MBA degree so they taught us as MBA students. It’s really cool, you know, we usually did the case studies on our own first, and then presented our opinions in front of the whole class. I loved those subjects!
点评： 的确有很多同学并不喜欢自己的主修课程， 那么， 请像这位同学一样， 告诉面试官你真正的兴趣在哪里。
6. What subjects were your least favorite? Why? 你最不喜欢的课程是什么？为什么？
问题分析： 外国面试官往往更加辨证， 在问完成功经历后一定要追问失败经历， 问完喜欢什么科目之后也要问问不喜欢什么科目。
回答示范1： My least favorite courses include Marxism and Revolutionary History of China. I don’t like these subjects not because I am not a patriot─actually I love my country and I am fascinated by its revolutionary history. However, these subjects turned out to be disappointments as the textbooks and the ways they were taught were nothing but a repetition of the history subjects in our secondary school.
点评1： 在和老外面试的时候， 要注意文化差异， 他可能很难理解中国学生为什么不喜欢学“马哲”和“中国革命史”， 所以你需要解释一下， 这并非是我们不爱国， 而是这两门课程几十年如一日的老面孔， 学生在高中就已经学过， 老师也不愿意对教学法进行创新。
回答示范2： I found Macroeconomics and Microeconomics disappointing as well, for the reason that their information fell behind the times. For example, the exchange rate between RMB and USD stilled remained 8.3 : 1 in the text! You can imagine how disappointed we were. So I spent more time listening to the lectures on economics organized by the Student Union.
