面試時(shí)，我們會(huì)面對形形色色的問題，而最令人啞口無言的，往往是一些最簡單和最常見的題目，比如"請你自我介紹一下"。大多數(shù)應(yīng)征者的反應(yīng)是--我應(yīng)該如何作答呢？
其實(shí)要懂得應(yīng)對此問題，就要先做好準(zhǔn)備You'll have a better chance of impressing the interviewer
if you think about this question before the interview.
The first thing to realize is that the question, "Tell me about yourself,"
provides you with a great chance to promote your strong points. This is
particularly important when applying for a job that is different from what you
have done in the past. You need to show the interviewer that your previous jobs
provide you with skills that can be used in the new job.
WHAT TO TALK ABOUT 如何介紹？
你可以選擇三個(gè)重點(diǎn)來介紹自己，但避免重復(fù)履歷中曾提及的資料。Around this skeleton should be the meat of your
answer; your less obvious, but important skills. Here are some of the skills
that you might want to mention. 你可以介紹自己是：
Problem solver 解決問題能手
Creative thinker 充滿創(chuàng)意
Accurate 小心謹(jǐn)慎
People
person 與人相處融洽
Team player 合群
Organized 組織力高
This doesn't mean that you just say, "I'm a great problem solver." Instead,
explain how you used your problem-solving skills at your previous job.
事例比自我夸耀更能說明問題。
自我介紹的時(shí)間不要過長，最好是一至三分鐘。最初你可能會(huì)覺得時(shí)間太長，但當(dāng)你真正要介紹自己三項(xiàng)特質(zhì)時(shí)，你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)時(shí)間不夠用了。
WHAT TO SAY 應(yīng)說什么？
What you actually say, in terms of the words you use, is something that you
have to decide. You need to create an answer that sounds natural and, at the
same time, interesting. 背答案估計(jì)沒有人愿意聽。The way to determine whether your answer is
natural is simply by writing a first draft of the answer and then read it out
loud. When you do this, you'll probably spot things that you have to change.
當(dāng)你構(gòu)思答案時(shí)，你要想想應(yīng)該如何說出，內(nèi)容要令人感興趣，不沉悶，避免滔滔不絕地只說自己的強(qiáng)項(xiàng)。
Here are some final things to think about when answering the question "Tell
me about yourself."
Mention major awards or accomplishments that relate to your career;
闡述工作上的重要成就或獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)
Promote your strengths, but do not mention any of your weaknesses;
推銷自己的長處，但不要提及自己的弱點(diǎn)
Try to be funny if you can, but don't force it;
可以的話，盡量說得幽默有趣
Summarize your career and education, but don't recite a list;
概括說出你的工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)和學(xué)歷，但切勿背誦
Don't start with your date of birth;
不用提及你的出生日期
Avoid information that is not career-related. The fact that you own a dog
won't get you a job
避免說一些與職業(yè)無關(guān)的事，例如：你有一只狗，這并不能為你爭取到工作
Always answer this question
經(jīng)常思考和解答這條問題
Try to sound natural
對答要自然
Relax and enjoy yourself!
放松心情，盡力而為。祝你面試成功！
