NO.1 我最近六個(gè)月一直宅在家里

撓頭系數(shù)：三顆星

表達(dá)難點(diǎn)：全球都經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)了，找不到工作在家睡覺六個(gè)月算是什么丟人的事兒么？當(dāng)然不是！不過您可千萬別實(shí)話實(shí)說---I have been unemployed/jobless in the past six months. 又不是演員試鏡，用不著把氣氛渲染得這么凄慘。

表述技巧：當(dāng)你的工作經(jīng)歷中間有比較大段的時(shí)間空白的時(shí)候，面試官不可避免的會(huì)問到這段時(shí)間你的whereabouts。這里應(yīng)該盡量避免出現(xiàn)unemployed這種負(fù)面氣場比較強(qiáng)烈的詞。用一個(gè)詞組“in between jobs”就可以委婉地表示這樣的意思了。當(dāng)然，最好的方式是告訴你的面試官：這半年雖然沒有正式的工作，我可是一直沒停止像金子一樣的發(fā)光！

Q&A例句：

What have you been doing since your last job?

I’ve worked on a few freelance projects, while still actively job seeking.

I volunteered for a coaching program that assists physically disadvantaged children.

My grandmother needed a temporary caregiver at the hospital and I spent time looking after her.

I took some continuing education classes and seminars, for example…

NO.2 我是三好學(xué)生外加鋼琴十級

撓頭系數(shù)：三顆星

表達(dá)難點(diǎn)：需要陳述這樣信息的多半是剛剛畢業(yè)的學(xué)生。本來就緊張，背下來的句子結(jié)結(jié)巴巴不說，還帶著一些富有中國特色的專有名詞，老外面試官聽起來多半是一頭霧水。我曾經(jīng)面試過一個(gè)人大的女生，自我介紹的時(shí)候說她在校時(shí)得到過“Good Student Worker Award”。當(dāng)時(shí)我腦子里出現(xiàn)的畫面是一個(gè)粗壯勞動(dòng)?jì)D女開拖拉機(jī)的形象。后來小姑娘告訴我，人家那是想說“先進(jìn)學(xué)生工作者”。

表述技巧：這里就是一句話---To put your feet into the interviewer’s shoes---把你的腳放在面試官的鞋子里，意思是說設(shè)身處地為他/她著想。想想老外知道不知道“三好學(xué)生”是哪“Three good”；鋼琴十級到底是高還是低；英語六級老外是不是也在大學(xué)的時(shí)候考過；與其用十分鐘解釋“通州區(qū)依法誠信納稅-共建和諧社會(huì)書法賽優(yōu)秀獎(jiǎng)”這么令人心跳加速的獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)還不如告訴人家I won a calligraphy contest funded by the local government. 雖然聽起來不特別具體，但起碼會(huì)讓你和面試官在交流上“共建和諧”。

Q&A例句：

Could you please describe your achievements in college?

I’ve received the honor of the most outstanding student in 2009.

I received the level-10 professional recognition on piano-playing by the National Pianists Association, with 10 being the highest level.

I received first-class scholarship for finishing the year in the top 5 percent of the class.

NO.3 你們打算給我多少錢？

撓頭系數(shù)：五顆星

表達(dá)難點(diǎn)：我們每個(gè)人最想問、最應(yīng)該問----卻最不適合問的問題。面試比較高層次的工作，一般工資福利都會(huì)在之前透露出來。面試entry level的職位，特別是類似店員、收銀、護(hù)工、廚師這類服務(wù)性工作，勞動(dòng)人民普遍比較爽快，習(xí)慣有話直說，你盡可以大膽的問“What’s the pay like?” 麻煩的是中級職位，雙方都會(huì)小心翼翼，互相試探著看能不能多占對方點(diǎn)兒便宜。這樣的情況下，面試官問“Do you have any questions for me?” ，實(shí)際上是在給你挖坑呢！

表述技巧：WATCH OUT！既然前面有坑，第一件事就是堅(jiān)決不跳。關(guān)于薪水的問題，最好是留給面試官抗不住了先來問你。在我以往面試過的幾百人中，主動(dòng)開口問工資的幾乎很少幸存下來。即便僥幸“活“下來，我的經(jīng)驗(yàn)來看，都沒能經(jīng)得住后來的考驗(yàn)。當(dāng)然也有另外一個(gè)極端的例子：曾經(jīng)有來面試的人向我表達(dá)即便不給錢也要干活兒的良好愿望。我除了心里感嘆一聲“傻孩子啊，不知人間疾苦”，并沒有給他們?nèi)魏?a style="COLOR: rgb(227,102,39); FONT-WEIGHT: bold; TEXT-DECORATION: none" name=額外關(guān)注>SPECIAL CONSIDERATION。有坑不跳是常識，但難免有人抑制不住好奇要下去看看，這時(shí)候就只能采取迂回的方式了：先問問公司對你這個(gè)職位設(shè)定的具體工作描述，然后一臉無辜的“順便問一下”這個(gè)職位的大概工資待遇。此方法貌似很傻很天真，但有可能讓面試官覺得你很壞很狡猾，PLEASE USE WITH CAUTION。

Q&A例句：

What is the job description of mine when working with the company?

What are the day-to-day responsibilities of this job?

What are some of the skills and abilities necessary for someone to succeed in this job?

What's the salary range for this position here?

No. 4 我被上個(gè)老板炒了

撓頭系數(shù)：五顆星

表達(dá)難點(diǎn)：如果你的上個(gè)老板是黃世仁，被炒的這個(gè)事實(shí)絕對會(huì)為你賺來大把的唏噓和同情---可惜啊，現(xiàn)代版的黃世仁們都穿著PHD或者M(jìn)BA的老羊皮襖，把自己包裝得絕對專業(yè)和理性。他們都不要的人肯定有問題，憑什么處理給我呢！這種事兒還不好撒謊遮著，顯得咱不誠信；不好破口罵前老板這個(gè)死變態(tài)，顯得咱們不夠和諧；不好實(shí)話實(shí)說他們給的錢不夠您租房的；顯得咱們不夠大氣......

表述技巧：炒魷魚也分幾種。第一種：趕上經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)，您是被一鍋炒掉的。這個(gè)時(shí)候一定要表現(xiàn)的跟上甘嶺的英雄一樣，告訴面試官“我是堅(jiān)持到最后的那一個(gè)！” 第二種：大環(huán)境沒問題，但是你和老板同事氣場不合，含淚出局。這種情況切忌在面試官面前像個(gè)怨婦一樣詛咒別人。想要顯得大度和無辜，一語帶過是最佳做法。第三種：被炒的原因像和尚頭頂?shù)莫{子---注意！這個(gè)可比虱子明顯太多了！凡是因?yàn)閲?yán)重失職、貪污盜竊、毆打客戶等等原因被炒的，切忌出現(xiàn)任何時(shí)間地點(diǎn)人物類細(xì)節(jié)，直接用一個(gè)模糊的MISTAKE帶過，速度越快越好，爭取用一秒鐘把面試官帶進(jìn)另外一個(gè)世紀(jì)。

Q&A例句：

Why were you fired?

I outlasted several downsizings but the last one hit me.

I’ve realized it was a blessing in disguise. Now I have an opportunity to explore jobs that better suit my qualifications and interests.

A new top management team came in and started cleaning house. They wanted to bring in members of their old team. It was unfortunate for me but it cleared my head to envision better opportunities elsewhere.

I made some mistakes that I regret, but I now know how I would better handle the situation.

I realized things could have been done differently after thinking about why I left. That job was a learning experience and I think I'm wiser now. I'd like the chance to prove that to you.
