● 英文面试问题类型有限:大部分问题可以预测。
● 面谈时间不长:英语面试一般不会超过10分钟,求职者回答时间有限。
● 回答内容比较固定:大部分提问都对应较为稳妥回答,求职者有充分时间准备。
● 招聘方考查目:对程序员英语要求在于能读、能写、能交流。 本章列出一些常见英文问题及参考回答,同时还提供了许多面试中常见英语词汇供参考。
2.1 英文面试过程和技巧
自我介绍时应该记住“3P原则”:Positive(自信),Personal(个性),Pertinent(中肯)。
● 谈吐自信,就是要积极地进行自我肯定,让面试官充分了解求职者优点与潜能。
● 突出个性,就是要把自己与众不同特点发挥出来,强调自己专业与能力。
● 语言中肯,就是要实事求是,不要言过其辞,夸夸其谈,也不要涉及与工作无关事情。
自我介绍应简洁明了,给面试官留下思路清晰、反应快捷、逻辑性强印象。自我介绍时间不宜太长,最好控制在五分钟之内,以免言多语失。
另外,在自我介绍时应避免过多地使用“I”(“我”),每个句子一开头就冒出一个“I”字,会给人留下自我标榜、以自我为中心印象。灵活应聘者往往会把以“I”开头话,变成“You”字开头。
例如,面试官问:“Would you please say something about yourself?”(请你谈谈自己情况好吗?)应聘者则说:“Do you want me to talk about my personal life or to say something about the job?”(你想让我谈谈我个人生活呢,还是与这份工作有关问题?)
这样,谈话就将求职者和招聘方都调动了起来。这种谈话方式所产生效果是不言而喻。毕竟面试是求职者和招聘方互相沟通和互相选择一次机会。
回答问题时要口齿清晰、语调适中。回答内容要有条理、避免重复。介绍工作经历时间顺序采用倒序,从最近一份工作谈起,着重强调有利于新工作业务经历,凡和此次应征不相关内容,应尽量避免提及。
下面是一些面试中注意事项。 (1)自我介绍不要面面俱到。
自我介绍时首先用一句话陈述自己基本特征,然后迅速进入正题,选择自己最引以为傲经历叙述。切记,面试官一般会承接求职者自我介绍发问,所以在做自我介绍时最好不要涉及特别难讲清楚事情或者比较抽象概念。另外,在提交简历中,已有详细个人介绍,所以面试中只需突出重点。
(2)忌语速过快。
剑桥大学一项调查显示,语速快一般体现不同人具备两种不同特质,一种是思维和语言反应能力强且协调人,另一种是处事急躁人。英文面试第一目是让招聘方了解求职者,最重要是展示综合素质,绝非单单语言能力,所以面试中应该首先力求表达清晰。另外,语速过快容易给人不自信、不稳重感觉。
(3)语言尽量简单直接。
习惯于堆砌华丽词藻人期待在面试中用大气磅礴英文演讲征服面试官,其实犯了舍本逐末错误。虚拟语气、倒装句和长词冗句不要在面试中使用太多,简单直接语言才是在英文面试中最管用。
面试中话题应该紧扣以下几个方面来展现自己优势。
● 能力。只有把自己专长讲足说够,然后才能顺理成章地得出结论:I think your unit needs a man like me。(我想,贵单位需要象我这样人才。)这样,招聘方会认为求职者是站在他们立场上说话,在替他们发展考虑问题,于是更容易接受求职者。陈述自己任职资格时,可以这么开头:I’m qualified for the job because…(我能胜任这项工作,是因为……),
接着陈述理由。这样,当招聘方在审视求职者究竟能不能胜任职位时,参照标准已不再是他心目中标准,而是求职者列举理由。
● 业绩。外企公司面试喜欢用事实说话,求职者可以把过去经历联系起来,强调自己解决过哪些实际问题,例如:I developed a business software and sold 50,000 sets in one year。(我开发了一套商业软件,一年销售出去5万套。)
● 诚意。某个问题发表完见解之后,可以附带加上一句:I’d like to hear your opinion.(我很想听听你意见。)这句话表明了求职者对招聘方尊敬,当招聘方在试探求职者应聘诚意时,应该及时表态:So far as that is concerned, you must have understood my determination.(谈到这里,您一定已经明白我决心。)
2.2 英文面试常见问题和答案 2.2.1 关于工作(About Job)

(我觉得目前工作,已经达到顶峰,即沒有升迁机会。) 2.2.2 关于个人(About Person)
有时候招聘方会提到有关求职者个人信息话题,以此判断求职者是否符合他们要求。例如有些工作需要方言和人脉,适合本地人来做;有些工作需要经常出差,单身人就有优势。但是有些问题涉及到个人隐私,求职
者不方便回答,例如招聘方问:“I noticed you're wearing a wedding ring. Do you have any children?”这时最好回答就是“Why do you ask?”这样可以掌握主动,了解招聘方真正意图,也许招聘方只是想知道求职者是否能长时间留在他们公司。

2.2.3 关于未来(About Future)
有时候招聘方会问求职者有关未来问题,目就是了解应聘者做事风格,以及应聘者对这份工作看法。当然由于求职者还不是很了解自己所应聘工作,因此在回答问题时并不一定面面俱到,大致说明自己计划目标就好了。
