跳槽的人在面试的时候多数都会被问到为什么要换工作。理由可以有很多:没有发展机会,不能发挥自己的长处,等等。不管你说什么理由,记得一定不能说以前公司的坏话,指责以前的老板和同事。我们来看看Ben是怎样处理这个问题的:
Snow: What positions have you held before?
Ben: I have been a salesman. But now, I can do public relations.
Snow: How many places have you worked altogether?
Ben: Three.
Snow: Would you give me a general description of your present job?
Ben: I am in charge of the trading department, handling invoices, shipping bills and computing freight costs.
Snow: What made you decide to change your job?
Peter: I am working in a small company where further promotion is impossible, so I decided to change my job. I'd like to find a job which is more challenging.
Notes:
1. What positions have you held before? 就是“你以前是做什么工作的”。hold a certain position,"做某个职位"。
2. I can do public relations,可以做公关工作。表示“做某种工作”,就在do后面加上职位的名称就可以了。
3. How many places have you worked altogether? 你以前一共在几个地方工作过?也就是问你已经换过几份工作了?
4. Would you give me a general description of your present job? 你能描述你一下你现在的工作吗?也就是想了解一下你现在的工作状况。
5. Ben把自己的工作简单地描述了一下,主要是负责了哪些事情,这是考官最想听到的,不用面面俱到,be in charge of something,负责某事,也可以说be responsible for something.
6. Would you give me a general description of your present job? 那你为什么要辞职呢?Ben回答说现在的公司没有什么晋升的机会了,他希望找一份更加有挑战性的工作。陈述你辞职的原因的时候,只要说出最主要原因就可以了,千万不要把以前公司的所有缺点意义罗列,特别是不要说以前上司和同事的坏话,这样会给考官留下非常不好的印象。
