27。 Tell me what you know about our pany。 说说你对这间公司的了解吧。
回答示范1： Actually； what I know about your pany is mostly from the newspaper and internet。 For example； R&F （注释： 富力地产） is a fast…growing pany； from one project in 1994； to 50 properties today。 R&F Plaza； R&F Peach Garden and some other properties are highly successful。 R&F also has successful business in Beijing and Tianjin； and the international expansion began in 2005 when R&F listed on the Hong Kong Stock Market。 What's more； I was very impressed that R&F donated 14 million Yuan to Jinan University last month。 I think I'd be very proud to work in such a generous pany。

点评1： 如果你对这间公司的了解仅仅限于互联网上所搜索到的信息， 请你像这位申请人一样滔滔不绝地列举该公司的亮点， 尤其是最新的亮点， 比如刚开发了什么新产品， 刚有什么令人骄傲的业绩等。你说得的信息越多越新越流利， 你的印象分就更高一些。在这个问题上， 展示你的“忽悠”才能吧。
回答示范2： What I know about Kimberly（注释： 金佰利） is partly from the Internet and newspaper； and partly from my own experience of using Kimberly products。 I am a loyal customer of Kleenex； and I sometimes choose Kotex。 Well； the new product； I don’t know the English name； the fragrant tissue； is really my favorite。 It's a bit expensive； but I can't resist it！
点评2： 避开人人可谈的来自网络的信息， 转而谈论自己对该公司产品的了解， 确实棋高一招。
五、 Self…evaluation 关于自我评价的问题
28。 How does your mother describe you？ 你的母亲认为你是个怎样的人？
问题分析： 只有外国面试官会这样提问， 因为他不了解中国的国情。在中国， 有两类母亲， 一类母亲是传统型的中国妇女， 从来不会夸奖自己的孩子； 另一类母亲是80后的现代母亲， 因为只有一个孩子而看不到孩子任何的缺点。在面试中， 你不妨把中国的这种“文化”传递给面试官， 以使面试气氛更加轻松有趣。
回答示范1： Well； it’s an interesting question。 It reminds me of a Chinese saying； the best child is your own child； and the best wife are others’ wives。 It means a man or woman is always satisfied with his/her own child； but not with the spouse； hehe。 My mother is just like this。 She tells everybody that I am hard working； more hard working than I should be。 She says I am trustworthy and independent； never giving her troubles。 You know； she sent me to boarding school at 14。
点评1： 这个回答很好， 它有两个优点： 第一， 比较有趣， 轻松地传播了一点中国文化； 第二， 以事实说明了自己的刻苦与自立的特征。
回答示范2： Most Chinese parents are not quite as expressive as western parents。 My mother has never told me what kind of person she thinks I am； but I feel if you ask her； she would say that I’m a good kid。 I never give her trouble。 You know； as a kid； I was healthy； seldom went to hospital。 As a student； I never needed her to push me to study。 As a son； I give her a call several times a week to ask how she is doing and to tell her about myself。
点评2： 很诙谐很感人的回答！
回答示范3： Well； I think my mother would describe me as hard working； independent； but too independent； “stubborn” is her very word； hehe。 My mother says I’m hard working because it’s true； I am a bit of a workaholic。 She says I am independent because she sent me to boarding school at 14 and I took very good care of myself。 But maybe because she sent me away at a young age； I've learnt to make my own decisions instead of consulting her； so she feels I am stubborn； hehe。
点评3： 有优点， 有缺点， 非常真实。
29。 What do you consider your strengths as an employee？ 作为一名公司职员， 你觉得自己有什么优点？
问题分析： 请大家注意， 这个问题的前提是“作为一名员工的优点”， 它和单纯的“你有什么优点”是有区别的。你必须列举自己在工作场合的优点。

回答示范1： I am keen on making improvements。 I can find problems and like to find ways to solve the problems。 Our pany has a Suggestion Scheme； that is； every employee is encouraged to offer suggestions on improvements to technology and management。 I have offered more than sixty suggestions in two years； 80％ of which have been adopted； which makes me rank number 3 in our department of 533 employees。 Besides technical suggestions I have also given some advice on management； though it seems unimportant to some people。 For example； I have suggested that music be played in the workplace； and that one light is good enough in toilets instead of three lights。
点评1： “善于提出建议”， 这的确是个很大的优点。
回答示范2： I have good time management skills。 As an assistant I often have several things in my hands at the same time so I have to manage my time well to work effectively。 I paste a very big Monthly Schedule on the walls at the office and at home； adding arrangements like sales meetings or friends' birthday parties anytime they are scheduled。 So I am very organized both at work and in personal life； never missing important events and deadlines。

回答示范4： I am a planner and my motto is “If you fail to plan； you plan to fail。” I plan everything。 I plan my work； the first thing I do in the morning is to make a Must…Do list and Waiting…To…Do list。 I plan shopping； I always make a shopping list so I never wander in the supermarket wondering what is needed…it's the best way to save time and money！ I plan my career too。 Since sophomore year I have planned to work as a marketing representative after graduating。 So I began to undertake more elective courses in marketing and find related part…time jobs； as you can see on my resume。
点评4： “计划性强”， 是所有职位都必须具备的优秀素质。
回答示范5： I do my job whole…heartedly to achieve good results。 As my friends say； I am a workaholic。 I always give 100％ to my work。 In university I worked overnight for experiments。 Last month I spent the whole month in the city of Liuzhou； all…day work； no rest； to finish a project before the deadline。
点评5： “做事情很拼命”， 是任何老板都欣赏的素质。
回答示范6： My strength is my flexibility to handle changes。 I began to like Guangzhou shortly after I had e from the northeast of China and I have made many good friends in a short time。 I’ve been sent to three different departments in three years of work at ICBC and I’ve adapted to each new position very well。 （如果面试官继续询问你如何适应变化， 则继续回答如下）When changes occur； I first learn the new things carefully and quickly。 Most importantly； I don’t hesitate to ask for help when needed。 I am not afraid of telling others that I don't know something。 Being open…minded is very important in my view； so much better than hiding in fear of losing face。

点评6： “适应能力强”既是一个生活上的优点， 也算是一个工作中的优点。不过， 这个回答最绝的地方是它巧妙地把面试官的注意力转移到该申请人在工商银行三年换了三个岗位的这个事实。连续换岗， 表明原单位对他很重视， 有意识地培养和锻炼他。
回答示范7： My strength is that I am quite expressive and I have the passion for expressing myself。 When studying in college I wasn’t afraid of speaking in front of the whole class。 Now at work I’m not shy about expressing my mind。 I believe if we love a job； we must share our views to make it better。
点评7： “表达能力强”， 是很多岗位都需要的优秀素质。
回答示范8： I am a very active person。 I’d rather hang out with people than sit and watch TV。 That’s the main reason why I want to be a sales rep。 Business travel won’t be a burden for me； it’s a joy of life。

回答示范9： I am eager to learn。 I am curious about lots of things； so I enjoy reading。 When I was a kid I liked to take things apart and see how they worked。 Now I enjoy researching and developing new technology at work； which is a joy for me as well as work。
点评9： “求知欲强”， 是技术研发类职位的必备素质。
回答示范10： I am passionate about work because I can find lots of fun at work； say； achieving a goal； being praised by bosses especially in public； haha； or self…improvement。 For example； I’ve volunteered to be an Internal Trainer at our pany to train the new staff。 Although I make little money for my hard work I've gained more important things than money； like presentation skills and confidence。
点评10： “对工作充满热情， 并善于在工作中寻求乐趣”， 这是一个多么可爱的优点！
回答示范11： My strength is that I am sensitive to what’s happening around； in other words； I pay attention to what’s going on and think about it。 I keep up with the latest fashions in our business。 For example； I once suggested one of my clients to sell NBA cards and he made around ten thousand Yuan from this business in less than a month。 I hit on the idea when my nephew told me many of his classmates were interested in these cards。 For another example； an old client once rejected my invitations to dinner three times in a row； and I immediately got a feeling that he was trying to hide something from me。 So I visited him the next day and found out that he intended to cooperate with another sports shoes pany。 I successfully stopped him from breaking from us by giving him some real examples of failures of that brand。 I believe I have to be sensitive to the business and to people or I can't do my work well。
点评11： “对周边事务非常敏锐”， 这是一个独树一帜的回答， 势必能令听惯了“领导能力强、 组织能力强、 沟通能力强”等“列强”答案的面试官印象深刻。
回答示范12： I have problem…solving skills； that is； I can often think of a way to bring a satisfying end to a difficult situation。 Let me give you an example at the workplace。 Last summer I found a very obvious number mistake made by the Project Manager when I was a part…time auditor。 I would have told her directly if she hadn't lost her temper for the same kind of mistake made by another auditor。 So I came up with an idea that wouldn't have made it too embarrassing for her。 I sent her an email； not only reporting the mistake of the number； but asking a lot of questions about that project。 As a result she realized her mistake and didn't feel very bad because she was still an expert who could answer my difficult questions！
