应届生面试攻略丨如何做英文自我介绍

时间:2022-12-07 16:56:57 | 文章来源:职结果

英文自我介绍与中文自我介绍的考虑因素有一点不同,主要在于面试官的身份。

# 如果面试官是中国人,要求你用英文做自我介绍,那么其意图主要是考察你的英语水平,了解你的英语发音和流利程度。所以,在准备英文自我介绍的时候,要着重表现自己的英语水平,一定要重视发音、语法及流利表达。

# 如果面试官是外国人,那么要求你用英文自我介绍的目的就不再是考察英语水平,而是要聆听自我介绍的细节,并根据你提供的细节来进行下一步的提问。所以,在面对外国面试官做自我介绍时,一定要在你希望面试官提问的地方放慢语速,或者用语气的变化来强调。另外,由于不同的外国面试官对于中国的了解程度不同,有些面试官对于中国的诸如人名、地名、学校名、公司名不一定了解,所以在自我介绍中提到这类词汇时,一定要放慢语速或者做简要解释。

那么面试官一般喜欢具备什么特点的英文自我介绍呢?

01 表达句式尽量使用口语化的短句,易于面试官听懂;

02 在表达过程中语速要慢,比中文自我介绍速度要放慢至少三分之一,易于面试官放松地倾听;

03 需要面试官重点倾听的地方会使用语调和语气加以强调,使面试官特别注意你所表达的内容。

从自我介绍的时间上来说,在面对中国面试官做自我介绍的时候可以简短一些,正常朗读时间在1分钟到1.5分钟之间,因为简短的自我介绍更能让中国面试官记住你说的话。

而在面对外国面试官的英文自我介绍,时间则可以稍微长一点,以正常朗读时间1.5分钟到2分钟为宜,因为这期间你可能需要额外做一些关于人名或地名的解释。

自我介绍原文:

My name is Zhao Jun, a postgraduate student from SUN  YAT-SEN University, and will get my master degree in March 2010. I'd like to summarize myself from three aspects:

Firstly, I'm an excellent learner.In my sophomore year, I passed the entrance examination to the Excellent Student Program in SUN YAT-SEN University and was recommended as the postgraduate student with special courses, and then I joined the IBM Center in SUN YAT-SEN University. After finishing my undergraduate courses, my GPA was 3.8 out of 4.5.

Secondly, I'm an excellent problem-solver. During the last 4 years, I have finished 5 projects, including the Hydraulic Engineering Project Management System, and so on. And I took part in the Mathematical Contest in Modeling in 2008 and won the second prize in Guangzhou region.

Finally, I'm an excellent team player. I've been serving as the monitor for 6 years and team leader for 2 years. And besides taking more responsibilities, I also placed great emphasis on teamwork, in order to meet the team's goal.

点评:分别从学习能力、解决问题能力、团队合作能力三个方面来描述自己,描述相对平淡,但是每个能力的描述都能用实例来佐证,为面试官后续的深入提问做好了铺垫。整体来说属于中规中矩的自我介绍。

My name is Wang Hao. I’ll soon graduate from ×××× University in 2010, majoring in legal economics. I’m confident that I am the right person the position, the assistant of the law department.

My intern experience in Renjie law firm had given me a deep understanding of the daily work of a lawyer, including checking the contract, contacting with companies and translation, writing and editing reports. Being the chief editor of Spring Lawyer, a newspaper of my university, has also helped me to gain the ability of editing, selecting topics and communicating with different people.

I have also had some internship and known quite a lot about how the media works. I worked for XinHua News Agency during the National People’s Congress and Political Consultative Conference period. Acted as an alternating script supervisor and assistant in everyday work, I have learned how to work under deep pressure, with quite fast working speed. It helps me to develop a good command of professional knowledge as well as the teamwork spirit. During the Beijing Forum 2008, I worked as an official journalist, interviewed 4 foreign professors in English. I think my media experience will be useful for the job because media influence is strong.

I am confident that I am competency enough to get the job. That’s all.Thank you.

点评:该同学的专业与应聘职位相关,且实践活动中有与法律相关的经历,虽然在新华社的媒体实习经历与该职位看上去不太相关,但是该同学巧妙地向面试官表明了这段经历所学习到的媒体行业知识,对于法律助理职位的工作是有很大帮助的。最后自信地向面试官表示了自己完全符合该职位的专业素质要求。

应聘人概况:中国农业大学应届本科生,女生

面试类型:外国面试官,一对一面试

自我介绍原文:

My English name is Jessie, J-E-S-S-I-E, I wonder if there are already other Jessies in Coca-Cola, because it is a very popular name with Chinese girls, hehe.

I will graduate from China Agricultural University in June 2009, but my major is economics, not related to agriculture. I like my major a lot so I’ve got a very good academic performance. My GPA ranks number 3 in the class of 60 students. Besides studying, I interned at a couple of companies.

You may have noticed that I worked for Coca Cola as a part-time promotion assistant. I was then working in Campus Supermarket to promote the drink “Cool”, or Ku-er in Chinese. It was a very tiring job, because I had to wear the heavy costume of a bear for eight hours a day and jump around to attract the attention of children. But I did it quite well.

As a graduate from an agriculture university I have natural interest in Coca-Cola.Besides interest, I am sure I have the potential to be a great sales management trainee, and I have the necessary qualities of a good sales management trainee, you know, communications skills, passion, not afraid of being rejected and so on. These abilities have been proven in my part-time jobs. I wish I could use them to sell my favorite Coca-Cola products to more and more people! Thank you.

点评:在介绍自己英文名字的时候与面试官有了一个互动,开启了一个良好的自我介绍开端。由于在实习经历中,曾经做过可口可乐公司的产品促销,所以向面试官介绍这段经历,也许会引起面试官好感或共鸣。最后围绕销售的职业特质,简要说明自己符合该职位。如果你有过在应聘公司或者其竞争对手公司实习、兼职的经历,建议在自我介绍中向面试官重点展示。
