    与外企进行英语面试 你准备好了吗？

    大凡找工作的人，都有对面试的担心，而英语面试最令人头痛。面试气氛总是紧张的，一紧张就容易出错，中文“台词”都会结巴，何况英语！

    可俗话说，养兵千日，用兵一时，学了那么多年英语，好歹有些积累，总不能栽在这上面。那么，如何过好英语面试这一关呢？

    外企英语面试啥样子？

    各外企的英语面试形式各异，但基本流程是差不多的。

    第一轮面试一般由公司人力资源部的人员担任考官，他们会从你的个人简历出发，询问一些有关个人的问题，比如请你用英语做一个自我介绍。有些公司，也会有一部分英语笔试，如雅芳公司，其笔试中包含一个中英互译的项目，主要考查应聘者基本的语言运用能力。

    第二轮面试则由部门主管经理出面，这时候，有关业务方面的问题成了面试的重点，所以英语面试也从个人情况转向了专业领域。比如应聘市场部，则应聘者通常会被要求谈一谈以往最成功的一个案例，或者自身的业务强项等。

    如果前面一路绿灯大亮，那么，最后一轮面试就要和bigboss———公司的总裁面对面了。外企的总裁一般是老外，当然面试就变成全英语的了。总裁询问的问题一般会和公司的精神、企业文化有关。一位曾任职默沙东制药的小姐说，她在参加的默沙东最后一轮面试时，默沙东老总看到她是学新闻出身的，便要求她谈谈对中国新闻媒体的看法，因为默沙东制药一直对新闻媒体有其比较独特的态度。通过这样比较宏观的问题，招聘方想要发现的是，应聘者的理念是否与公司的文化精神相契合。

    如何应对英语面试

    英语从小开始学，可学了10来年，有的人还是“哑巴英语”。到了要找饭碗的紧要关头，则对一些“成功英语面试培训”饥不择食。其实，冰冻三尺，非一日之寒，速成是不可能的，只能在平时积累的基础上，注意一些细节，运用一些技巧，给自己加上几个成功的筹码。

    首先，平时要注意训练听力，至少要听得懂考官的问题，如果考官一个问题出来，你却听得云里雾里，然后来两三个“Pardon”，那现场气氛定会急转直下。说话要流利，思维要连贯，层次要清晰，不要夹杂中文，可以用“well”、“however”这样的过渡词来给自己停顿和思考，同时，也使得自己的表述显得口语化一些。

    其次，发音要标准。在与外国boss面谈的过程中，发音的正确清晰与否是最为重要的。不要因为害怕犯语法错误而不敢说，大多数时候一些细小的语法错误并不影响交际的进行，老外们也不会特别在意。如果要说某个词却一时想不起来，那就换种说法，尽量避免卡壳，卡壳会导致冷场。总之不管怎么样，都要自信满满地，把英文说得让人听上去像那么回事。

    ■先期准备

    主要是个人情况和业务方面。专业英语的准备要充足，有时会被要求用英语解释一个专业术语或解答一个技术问题。还可去公司的英文网站了解一下企业文化，这在与bigboss面谈的中会有帮助的。

    ■临场发挥

    英语面试中，准备好的英语只能让你流利几分钟，其它的都是些出其不意的问题。比如应聘销售职务，会被问到“如果要推销月球上的一块土地，你会用什么理由说服客户？”

    有时候真不知怎么回答好时，也别冷场，尽量显示你的机智灵活。一位在微软任职的先生说，他英语面试时，老外问他最郁闷的事情（most frustrated experiences）是什么，他说最郁闷的事情就是被老外问到最郁闷的事情是什么，老外听了哈哈一笑，OK了。
