一、
個人能力集中表現(xiàn)在社會榮譽(yù)、工作業(yè)績、科研成果、著作等,這里最主要的是著作和工作成果。
著作包括所有出版過的書,發(fā)表過的論文。這一項對科研、學(xué)術(shù)工作者尤為重要。如果內(nèi)容與所申請的職位密切相關(guān),作者不僅應(yīng)列入其中,而且可扼要介紹作品內(nèi)容、社會影響和效果。面試時,應(yīng)帶上作品的原件或復(fù)印件。
了解到到底什么是個人能力以后,我們再來看一段對話:
A:Would you talk about your merits?
B:Yes, sir. When I was the sales manager of Beijing Friendship Store, I succeeded in raising yearly sales volume by 25% at profit margins offrom 50% to 80%.
A:Have you received any honors or rewards?
B:Yes. I got the title of “Advanced Worker” in 1992 and 1994.
A:Do you have any publications?
B:Yes. My book entitled A Preliminary Survey of Controlling Inflation was published by China Finance Publishing House in 1993.
對話中出現(xiàn)了一些詞組用法和單詞:
Words & Expressions:
Beijing Friendship Store: 北京友誼商店
Succeed in: 成功
sales volume:銷售量
Advanced Worker:先進(jìn)工作者
A Preliminary Survey of Controlling Inflation:抑制通貨膨脹初探
China Finance Publishing House:中國金融出版社
如今各個用人單位的語言能力,尤其是外語能力,能懂得一門外語確實(shí)在應(yīng)聘時有一些優(yōu)勢。今天這一講我們就來講講在面試時如何表達(dá)自己的語言能力??聪旅孢@段對話:
A:You will mainly use English in this job. Do you think you can make yourself understood in English with ease?
B:Yes, I think I speak English quite fluently. Ive often explained historical places in Xian to foreign tourists in English. They say my English is quitegood.
A:How long have you been learning English?
B:Oh, more than ten years. I started learning English when I was still in a primary school from a foreign teacher.
A:Well, perhaps thats the reason why you are so fluent in it.
