面试当天,Mickey的面前坐着一个金发碧眼的外国人,虽然看起来很亲切,但对方一开口说出的“ABC”就立刻让Mickey手心冒汗,他很努力地去听,大部分单词都听懂了,可拼起来根本无法理解句子的意思。只得胡乱回答了几句,还勉强在脸上摆出镇静的表情。面试结束后,看到考官礼貌却遗憾的笑容,Mickey知道这次面试被自己的紧张搞砸了。
如今,Mickey已经是个职场达人,面试老手,在对口语进行了针对性训练后,他再也不会遇到碰见和自己肤色不同的人就表现失常的情况。可他仍然在进行商务英语学习,为日后申请更高的职位做准备。
职场专家观点:英语成绩好并不意味着一定能够顺利通过英文面试,生活化的口语不足以应付英文面试的考核。一般来说,英文面试时和中文面试会遇到的问题相差无几,主要针对求职者的自我介绍、求职经历和专业能力,所以应聘者可以事先对面试可能涉及的问题作一些准备,先用中文回答然后翻译成英文,甚至可以将完整答案背诵出来,也不失为一个好办法。
