《誰是接班人》中的英文面試題目 - TOEIC職場菁"英"初體驗
《誰是接班人》影集我看了第一季和第二季,這真的是很精采的職場面試選秀!每週的專案競賽都有很多PMP專案管理的案例在裡面,但在最後,會回到最基本的interview,高階主管面試。
那些面試提問,真是犀利阿。
我刻意的把這幾題面試題目抄了下來,這些問題要我用中文回答都很難答,若是英文面試就更難了......
‧第一季
You're pretty familiar with the organization right now.
And I like to hear your description of the organization.
你現在對這公司應該已經蠻瞭解了,我想聽妳形容一下這個公司。
What
are your gonna do when you're managing a construction schedule, and
some grizzly, old contractor just says, 「Lady, you don't know what
you're talking about」 ?
妳對建築有概念嗎?若要妳管理建築工程進度,妳會怎麼做?某些愛抱怨的老包商會說「小姐,妳根本不知道妳自己在說些什麼」 (因為川普是做房地產起家的)
What are you gonna bring to the table other than your charisma?
除了個人魅力,你還有何過人之處?
What's gonna make me want to say, 「Hey, this is the guy I want to work with」 ?

問KEVIN學歷相關的事
You've done four or five start-ups in how long a period? So does that mean you have trouble staying with something or?
問KELLY工作經驗,每個工作待多久,

記得我第一次英文面試是在大學的時候,那時候要應徵一個國際的大型廣告展覽的服務人員,因為參展的賓客會有很多外籍人士,所以徵選的時候是用英文面試。
面試的題目相較起來簡單多了,大略是「請問你認為台北有什麼值得推薦的景點?」、「若想購買一幅中國的書法作品該去哪裡買?」模擬外國人來台灣會問的問題,請面試者回答。
當時,題目我都聽得懂,但回答的西西落落,最後乾脆用中文回答。 XD
實
際踏入職場上,雖然都是待在台灣企業,但英文的應用還是很多。例如英文的軟體工具使用、英文的網路產業新知等等,還有業務上與其他公司聯繫的英文信件書
寫。104人力銀行在今年七月份發佈了一份統計,從1999年到2008年這十年間,職場英文能力的需求比例大幅提升了16%,以目前就業市場中26萬筆
全職工作機會為例,約有將近一半(47%)的職缺要求求職者具備英文能力。但若請上班族自評英文程度等級,總體台灣上班族有逾八成的人認為自己的英文程度
是在「高中生以下」的水準。
