2021年求职英语面试之时 一定要避免的8件事

求职英语面试之时一定要避免的8件事进行的时候，你能用纯正的英语和清晰的英语逻辑表达来回答这些问题吗?怎样的回答能给面试官留下深刻印象、让面试官最终决定录用你而不是别人?避免以下的这八件事，让你的面试事半功倍!1. Freeze up过度紧张语无伦次If you can’t make it through an interview without crumbling, people are unlikely to believe you’ll be able to withstand the rigors of a normal job. So if you find interviews particularly daunting, work on your pep-talk beforehand. For example, if you find you’re saying things to yourself like, “I’m terrible in interviews, I know I’ll look like an idiot”– that can’t be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Instead, change your mental monologue to something more hopeful, yet still realistic, like “I get nervous during interviews, so I need to practice beforehand, and remember to look at the interviewer and keep breathing.” And do practice, too – that can really reduce your fear.如果你无法平和冷静地通过一场面试，这会很难使别人相信你能禁得起常规工作的严格考验。

因此，如果你觉得那些面试会使你紧张不安，你可以事先给自己打打气。

比如说，即使你心里在想“我知道我在面试中会表现很差，看起来就像个傻瓜”，这也不可能是一个自我实现的预言。

相反，把你的内心独白转化成一些更加乐观却不失现实性的话语，就像“我在面试的时候会紧张，所以我要事先练习一下，一定要记得看着面试官，呼吸要平稳，放轻松。

”除此之外你还要做一些事前练习，此举能够有效缓解你内心的不安。

2. Dominate完全一言堂——说个不停If you know you have a strong personality and tend totalk a lot, coach yourself before you go into an interview to get curious about the interviewer: what he or she might be interested in hearing from you, his or her view of the job and of the pany. If you’re in a curious mindset, you’ll be much more likely to listen, and the interview will be a dialogue, vs. a monologue.如果你深知自己个性很强且喜欢滔滔不绝地说话，那你在面试前就要训练自己去揣摩面试官的内心：面试官想听我讲什么?对这份工作还有这个公司是什么看法?如果你在面试过程中处于这样一种好奇的心态，你就会更倾向于去听面试官在说什么，面试就会成为一场对话，而不是一次独白。

3. Be sloppy仪表草率Try to find out, before your interview, what’s standard dress at that particular pany. But no matter how casual the dress code – don’t be a slob. Having good personal hygiene – clean hair, showered, nails trimmed – and clean, unwrinkled clothing is much more important than whether you’re a little over-dressed or under-dressed. When someone es to an interview looking like he or she has just rolled out of bed, it municates lack of respect for the interviewer, the job and the pany.在面试前，你要查询一下你所应聘的那家公司的着装规范。

但是无论着装要求是多么随意，面试时都不可以不修边幅。

要保持良好的个人卫生：头发要理好，事先洗过澡，指甲要修好。

还有衣服要干净整洁不可以皱巴巴，这点很重要，不管是打扮郑重还是随意都要注意这点。

当一个人去面试的时候看着像是刚起床的样子的话，这会给人以一种这个人并不在意这次面试，也不在乎这份工作，这个公司的印象。

4. Throw anybody under any bus拉任何人为你垫背Even if your former employer was terrible, resist the temptation to share any of that with your interviewer. I think sometimes people say dreadful things about their previous job because they don’t think about how it will be perceived, and sometimes because they actually think the interviewer will take it as a kind of pliment (e.g., mylast job was horrific, unlike this job…). Trust me, saying negative things about your past work life in an interview will only give the impression that you’re both a plainer and indiscreet. Neither quality will put you on the ‘let’s hire’ list.哪怕你的前任雇主很差劲，你也要克制自己去向面试官说任何有关这方面的事。

有些时候人们会抱怨他们之前的工作，是因为他们并没有考虑到这件事会被如何看待，有时他们甚至认为面试官会把这些抱怨当做一种恭维(例如，我的上一份工作很糟糕，不像这份工作……)。

请相信我，在面试中这些有关你过去的工作生活的负面话语只能给人以轻率且爱抱怨这种印象。

无论是轻率还是爱抱怨，都会使你被排除在雇用 ___之外。

5. Focus more on perks than on the job关注福利比关注工作本身还多Job seekers are often counseled to be clear about what they need and expect from a job, rather than just taking whatever’s offered. While I agree with that in principle, timing is critical. Many years ago, I conducted a first interview with someone whose only questions, when I asked her what else she wanted to know about the pany, were 1) how much vacation will I get, 2) how many sick days can I take, and 3) will I get paid for the time I take off for family emergencies. These are all important things to know, and if I had offered her the job, would certainly be thingsshe should find out before taking it. But to focus on them (exclusive of anything else) in a first interview left me with the sense that she was assessing the job purely as a vehicle for her to get paid time off. I was not inspired to hire her.常有人建议求职者们不要全盘接受这份工作提供的'酬劳，而是要清楚明白地知道自己真正需要、真正想要的是什么。

我大体上是同意这个观点的，但是时机很关键。

很多年前，我在初试时面试过一个女生，当我问她“对公司的事情还有什么疑问”的时候，她问的都是这一类的问题：1.我的假期有多长，2.我的病假有几天，3.如果我因家中急事请假的话是否会给工资。

这些事确实很重要，而且她也确实应该在我聘请她之前了解这些事。

但是在第一轮面试就关注于这些事(而不是其他)，这使我有一种她只是把这份工作单纯地作为一个给她带薪休假的工具的感觉。

因此我不太建议雇佣她。

6. Be opinion-free毫无主见One manager told me about an interview he conducted where the interviewee was trying so hard to e across as flexibleand aommodating, it felt as though he would have agreed with anything the manager said. Of course, most people don’t want to hire folks who are bative or rigid – but they do want people who have a sense of who they are, what they think, and what’s important to them.一位经理告诉我，他在面试中遇到过一位应聘者，他竭力给人以灵活、随和的印象，却让人觉得无论经理说什么他都会附和。
