相關的工作經(jīng)驗可以為你在面試時贏得不少加分。有人可能會問，大學生剛畢業(yè)哪來的經(jīng)驗？注意了，假期短期工作和實習都是很好的經(jīng)驗來源，只要你夠勤快，工作經(jīng)驗并不難找。閑話少說，我們來看看
Sam 和 Ann在面試時是怎樣處理工作經(jīng)驗這部分的。
Dialogue 1
Snow: Have you got any experience in advertising?
Sam: Yes, I have been
working in the Public Relations Section of a company for the past two years. I
plan the advertising campaigns and cooperate with artists and a typographer.
Sometimes I have to do the work of a specialist when there's something urgent.
Snow: Have you had any experience with computers?
Sam: Yes, I studied in
a computer-training program, and can process data through the computer.
Snow: That's fine. What about operating the fax and duplicators?
Sam: I
can handle them without any trouble.
Snow: How often do you work overtime?
Sam: I worked overtime several times a month.
Notes:
1. 對話中Sam在一家廣告公司進行面試，Have you got any experience in advertising?
你有沒有廣告方面的從業(yè)經(jīng)驗？experience in / with something，某個方面的經(jīng)驗。
2.
這時候你就可以把自己的工作經(jīng)驗告訴考官，當然不要面面俱到，一定要挑跟你面試的工作緊密相關的方面來說，其它的可以不說或者一句話帶過。這就要求你在面試之前想好怎樣來條理清晰地陳述你的工作經(jīng)驗，甚至還可以先打個草稿，為的就是做到心中有數(shù)。
3. 這里你可以順便提一下你的一些工作技能，比如，電腦操作等等。process data through the
computer，用電腦處理各種數(shù)據(jù)。operating the fax and
duplicators，操作傳真機和打印機。handle這個詞也很常用，指“處理，操作”。例如：I think I can handle it.
這件事我可以做好。
4. work overtime，加班，overtime這里做副詞，表示“超時地”，overtime也可以做名詞be on
overtime，也表示“加班”。
Dialogue 2
Watt: Do you have any sales experience?
Ann: Yes, I worked in a fashion
shop as a part-time salesgirl.
Watt: What kind of work are you doing now?
Ann: I'm working as an export sales staff member for a foreign trading
company.
Watt: Where are you working?
Ann: I work at Lianfu Foreign
Trade Company，Ltd.
Watt: How long have you been working there？
Ann: I
have been working there since I left my previous employer in 1996.
Watt: How
many employers have you worked for?
Ann: Three.
Watt: What work were you
responsible for at your previous work unit？
Ann: I was responsible for
advertising design.
Notes:
1. Do you have any sales experience? 你有銷售經(jīng)驗嗎？這也是詢問工作經(jīng)驗的一個常用句式。work as
是"做什么樣的工作"，例如：I worked as a tutor after school. 放學后我就去做家教。
2. What kind of work are you doing now?
你現(xiàn)在在做什么工作？Ann回答說在一家外貿(mào)公司做銷售人員。考官又問是什么公司，Where are you working?
這可不是問公司的地址，而是問公司的名稱。
3. How long have you been working
there？你在那工作多久了？這里用的是現(xiàn)在完成進行時態(tài)，表示從過去到現(xiàn)在一直做某事，從來沒有間斷過。How many employers have you
worked for? 你為幾個雇主工作過？其實也就是問你換過幾個工作了。
4. What work were you responsible for at your previous work
unit？你在以前工作的部門具體負責什么工作？be responsible for something，負責某事，也就是做某項工作。previous work
unit，以前的工作部門。
5. 一般這樣的問題據(jù)實回答就可以了，除非考官對你某方面的工作經(jīng)驗感興趣，否則不要自己說起來沒完，要學會見機行事。
