Hello, lovely students and welcome back to English with Lucy.

你們好，可愛的同學們，歡迎回到今天的露西英語課。

to 不定詞

In today's lesson, I'm going to talk to you about different ways to answer everybody's favorite part of an interview and that's sarcasm obviously.

我要和你們談談回答每個人在採訪中最喜歡的部分的不同方法，那就是諷刺。

現在進行式

I'm referring to the dreaded question: Tell me about yourself.

顯然，我指的是那個可怕的問題。

And you don't just find this question in interviews.

說說你自己吧，這個問題不只是在面試中才會遇到。

You might be asked to offer a self introduction in a meeting at a conference in so many different situations.

您可能會被要求在會議上進行自我介紹，情況多種多樣。

今天，在我分享如何掌握這個問題的全部智慧之前，讓我們先來解決這個問題。

Before I share all of my wisdom on how to master this question,

I would like to remind you that as always, there's a free PDF that goes with today's lesson and it contains everything that we're going to discuss today.

我想提醒大家，和往常一樣，今天的課程會附帶一份免費的 PDF 文件，其中包含了我們今天要討論的所有內容。

So tell me about yourself is one of the first questions or prompts that you'll be asked in a job interview.

是以，"談談你自己 "是求職面試中首先會被問到的問題或提示之一。

How you answer this question is really important because what comes out of your mouth is going to be the first impression that the interviewer has of you and first impressions are extremely difficult to change.

如何回答這個問題非常重要，因為從你口中說出的內容將成為面試官對你的第一印象，而第一印象是極難改變的。

Unfortunately, this question is a tough one to answer.

遺憾的是，這個問題很難回答。

What would you say if I asked you to tell me about yourself?

如果我讓你談談你自己，你會怎麼說？

So does the interviewer want to hear about your childhood and what it was like to grow up with three brothers, seven dogs and an obsession with Britney Spears?

那麼，面試官是否想聽聽你的童年，以及有三個兄弟、七隻狗和痴迷布蘭妮-斯皮爾斯的成長經歷？

Or do they want a very detailed point by point rundown of your CV?

還是他們想要一份非常詳細的履歷？

Well, in all honesty, neither of these is a good approach.

Well, don't worry, I'm going to tell you exactly how to answer this question.

別擔心，我會告訴你如何回答這個問題。

And I'll also highlight some phrases you can use to really sell yourself first things first.

我還會強調一些短語，你可以用它們來推銷自己。

The most important thing to focus on is work not your personal life.

最重要的是專注於工作，而不是個人生活。

If you're answering this question in a professional environment, I know it might be tempting to try to impress the interviewer with an extravagant story about your life, but hold on to those fascinating anecdotes till after you have the job, what you should do is give the interviewer a brief overview of your employment experience and talk about the roles you've done in the past that relate to the job you're applying for.

如果您是在職業環境中回答這個問題，我知道您可能很想用一個奢侈的生活故事來打動面試官，但請把這些精彩的軼事保留到您得到這份工作之後，您應該做的是向面試官簡要介紹您的工作經歷，並談談您過去做過的與您申請的工作相關的角色。

And the key word here is brief, just hit the highlights.

這裡的關鍵詞是簡短，只說重點。

Treat it as a synopsis or the blurb at the back of the story book of your life.

把它當作你人生故事書的大綱或後面的簡介。

You want to get the interviewer interested, but you're not going to feel the full story just yet.

你想引起面試官的興趣，但現在還不能讓他感覺到你的全部故事。

If most of your work experience is in jobs similar to the one that you're applying for, start at the beginning.

如果您的大部分工作經驗都與您申請的工作類似，那麼就從頭開始。

Tell them your job title, the company you worked for and what you did there.

告訴他們你的職稱、工作的公司以及你在那裡做什麼。

Let's imagine you work in hr human resources.

You could say my first job in the field was as an hr assistant with go work a large company in Manchester.

我的第一份工作是在曼徹斯特的一家大公司擔任人力資源助理。

My main duties were to support the managers with recruitment and assist with money staff engagement.

我的主要職責是支持管理人員的招聘工作，並協助員工參與資金管理。

After two years, I was promoted to hr manager with the same company.

兩年後，我晉升為同一家公司的人力資源經理。

I led a team of three in that role and I was responsible for ensuring we hit our recruitment targets.

在這個崗位上，我上司著一個三人團隊，負責確保我們完成招聘目標。

You can continue talking about your positions until you reach your most recent one.

您可以繼續談論您的職位，直到您最近的職位為止。

Now, let's imagine that you're applying for a role of a senior teacher.

現在，讓我們設想一下，您正在申請高級教師的職位。

In this case, you've only worked as a teacher for two years and you had a different career before that you should start with the most relevant position for the past two years.

在這種情況下，您只做了兩年教師，而在這之前您有過不同的職業，您應該從過去兩年中最相關的職位開始。

I've been teaching business studies at the local high school.

我一直在當地高中教授商業研究。

During that time, I've taken ownership of the two most senior classes and their exam preparation.

在這段時間裡，我負責兩個最高年級的班級和他們的備考工作。

I was drawn to teaching because I've always loved working with young people and I have a great rapport with them.

我之所以選擇教書，是因為我一直喜歡與年輕人打交道，而且我與他們的關係非常融洽。

I began my career in marketing and I worked my way up to senior marketing director over the span of 10 years.

我的職業生涯始於市場營銷，在 10 年的時間裡，我一路晉升為高級市場營銷總監。

我覺得自己在擔任商業研究教師方面表現出色。

Thanks to my real world experience in marketing, combined with my passion for teaching.

這要歸功於我在市場營銷方面的實際經驗，以及我對教學的熱情。

Remember if you're a new graduate and you're looking for your first real job, you don't need to talk about your paid work.

請記住，如果您是應屆畢業生，正在尋找第一份真正意義上的工作，您不需要談論您的有償工作。

Reflect on your journey through school, university, part time jobs and even volunteer work.

反思自己的求學之路、大學生活、兼職工作甚至志願者工作。

Show off the gems that showcase your awesomeness.

炫耀那些能展示你偉大的寶石。

Additionally, for each job or experience you mentioned, you should talk about one major achievement that you had there, focus on achievements that are relevant to the role you're applying for and be specific.

此外，對於您提到的每份工作或每段經歷，您都應該談談您在其中取得的一項主要成就，重點放在與您申請的職位相關的成就上，並且要具體。

If you can, can you see a theme here, make it relevant.

如果可以，你能看到這裡的主題嗎？

You could talk about your hard skills or hard achievements.

你可以談談你的硬技能或硬成就。

And these are things like learning a new programming language or knowing how to operate a forklift.

比如學習一門新的編程語言，或者知道如何操作叉車。

But you can also talk about your soft skills and soft achievements.

但你也可以談談你的軟技能和軟成就。

And these things are harder to measure but might involve using your communication skills or solving a problem.

而這些事情更難衡量，但可能涉及到運用你的溝通技巧或解決問題。

One of my major accomplishments was implementing a new accounting system that saved the company approximately 70 hours a month or something that I'm most proud of is that I was able to learn to use a new software program and then teach my team to use it too.

我的主要成就之一是實施了一套新的會計系統，每月為公司節省了約 70 個小時，最讓我自豪的是，我能夠學會使用一個新的軟件程序，然後教我的團隊也使用它。

Or even my greatest achievement in the past year was beating the sales target by 14% despite the difficult economic situation.

甚至在過去一年裡，我最大的成就就是在經濟形勢嚴峻的情況下，銷售額仍比目標高出 14%。

To finish off your answer, you should talk about the job you're applying for and how your skills or experience relate to it.

在回答的最後，您應該談談您申請的職位，以及您的技能或經驗與該職位的關係。

Again, this is your opportunity to really knock the socks off your potential employer by showing them exactly why you are the only person for the role they're trying to fill.

同樣，這也是一個讓你的潛在僱主眼前一亮的機會，向他們展示為什麼你是他們想要填補的職位的唯一人選。

The job post said that you're looking for someone with strong sales skills.

招聘啟事上說，你們需要的是銷售能力強的人。

My past achievements in not only meeting but exceeding sales targets mean that I'm sure I would be a valuable asset to the company.

我過去不僅實現了銷售目標，而且還超額完成了目標，這意味著我肯定會成為公司的寶貴財富。

I did some research on the company before coming to the interview and I know that you value dynamic employees who make decisions quickly.

在來面試之前，我對公司做了一些調查，我知道你們非常重視有活力、能迅速做出決定的員工。
