英語面試要巧用三類肢體語言
1. Body Language (肢體語言)
Most interviewers greet the applicant with a handshake. Make sure that your clasp is firm. Being jittery about the interview can result in cold, clammy hands, which create a negative impression. Therefore, make sure your hands are warm and dry. Before leaving, try to find out exactly what action will follow the interview and when it will happen. Shake hands as you say good-bye and thank the interviewer for spending time with you.
(面試的僱主大都會與應聘者握握手。要確保你的握手有力量。情緒緊張地來參加面試會使你伸出的手冰冷潮溼, 會給僱主留下負面印象。所以, 要讓你的.手溫暖乾燥。臨走之前, 爭取問問面試後下一步該是什麼, 何時開始。道別時要握手感謝僱主花時間對你進行面試。)
要注意:Don’t shake hand with the interviewer until he/she extends his/her hand. ( 人家伸手時才握手。)Don’t sit down until invited to do so by the interviewer. ( 人家未請,先別坐下。)
2. Eye Contact (眼神的交流)
Always maintain eye contact with the interviewer. Make eye-contact with the interviewer during the interview. Show that you are confident by looking straight at the person.
(和僱主要一直保持目光接觸。面試時,眼睛要看著對方。直視對方說明你有自信。)
而不是Fails to look interviewer in the eye 不敢正視。
3. Active Listener (做一個積極的聆聽者)
面試時要Listen actively and stay calm. (注意聽,保持冷靜。)而對方的一舉一動,雖然無言,卻也可能有意。要善於察言觀色,明察秋毫,比如,自己說得太多了就要注意一下是不是自己太羅嗦了,沒有掌握好時間。主試人認為該結束面試時,往往會說以下這些暗示的話語,例:
I’m grateful for your concern about the job at our company.
我很感激你對我們公司這項工作的關注。
Thank you for your concern about our recruitment, We shall inform you as soon as we have made our decision.
謝謝你對我們招聘工作的關心。我們一做出決定就會立即通知你。
We have known something about you. You know, we have to interview several applicants we make our final decision.
你的情況我們已經瞭解了。你知道,在做出最後決定之前我們還要面試幾位申請人。
