Interviews are part of most people' s working life. Here are some handy tips on how to do your best at interviews.
Don' t mistakenly think that your interviewers want to know about you. They are interested only in that small part of you that can or can' t do the job they have advertised.
sadly , many of us are so flattered by questions such as "Tell me about your strengths" that we take it as an invitation to chatter and make fools of ourselves.
Never think that lots of enthusiasm is enough. sit down with a pen , paper and the job description ，and work out the skills and qualities they are looking for.
Itemize your technical or professional skills as they match the requirements of the job. Then recall an incident to illustrate each of these skills. When you have done this
, you will be in a position to begin justifying your ability and suitability.
Remember that very few questions are lightly asked.
If your interviewers are interviewing more than a couple of candidates , they have probably worked up a list of eight to ten questions to put to each person. In well-organized businesses , they will be making marks in their notebooks as you give your replies. An imprecise answer will show that you do not appreciate the value of the question. s0 think through how you can give strong
, specific answers to questions such as "Can you work well in a team or on your own or in a small business?"
Avoid giving them reasons to exclude you. You want to appear the sort of person who will help out in a crisis. make the tea sometimes even if it is not your job. be tolerant of others. whatever their age ,sex , race or religion ,
and be easy to manage. Don't attack your previous employer as it suggests you might attack your now one.
Try asking them a few questions. If you ask what sort of projects you would be likely to start work on ,you might then get back some very useful feedback. If they start opening Up
to you , you can get into a more equal conversation and may have an opportunity to show that you can deal with the sort of situation they are describing.

Dear Ms Wang,
I make bold to write this letter to ask you to do me a favor. I have tried to translate several short Chinese stories into English for a part-time job. As it is the first time for me to do a translation work, I think there must be many errors and awkward expressions of Chinese English for my lack of experiences. I sincerely hope that you would read over my manuscripts and correct my mistakes and socialisms. Also could you please give me some other suggestions on my translation work.
Thank you for your help with great respect!
Your faithful student,

Tell me about a city you have visited.
You should say:
where the city is and when you went there
what people can see and do in that city
why that city is special and explain why your visit to that city was memorable.
You will have to talk about the topic for one to two minutes.
You will have one minute to think about what you're going to say.
You can make some notes to help you if you wish.
The city that I visited most recently was Sydney. It's on the coast of South-East Australia and is one of the biggest cities in that country. It's most famous for it's opera house, which I went to on a tour. Nearby, there is a big bridge—I can't remember the name. It's shaped like an arch. I went there last month to visit a friend. There are many theatres, galleries and other cultural things to do there, but I spent most of my time just walking around. In the evenings, I went out to a few of the bars with my friend. They were a little expensive, but I enjoyed the atmosphere and we met some interesting people. There are still some old buildings from the colonial era and I took some photographs of them whenever I saw them on my walks. What makes the city special? I'd say that the people. Most people are friendly and cheerful. They seem very, optimistic. They are also very out-going and so Sydney is quite lively in the evenings—at least in the city centre. I'm looking forward to going there again someday.
