一、面试注意事项
(一)问候
第一印象很重要,因此见到考官的第一句话很关键,不用说的很复杂。一个简单句就可以,但一定要铿锵有力,展示出自信和实力。千万不要来一句“Sorry,my English is poor”。
常见的开头有:
I am glad to be here for this interview. First let me introduce myself. I’m ...(姓名), my Number is…(编号).
(二)自我介绍
自我介绍是大部分院校复试中都有的一个流程,那么有效的自我介绍应该包括哪些内容呢?
姓名、毕业院校和所学专业,注意这些内容介绍的时候要准确,清楚,可提前查好你的专业和学校用英语该怎么表达;
体现自己优秀的一些佐证,比如学习成绩好,参加很多实践活动,可以适当举例子加以说明,有的时候具体的信息更容易打动人心;
对自己专业的认识,如果是跨专业考研可以说一下对所跨专业的认识,比如重要的意义或发展前景;
兴趣爱好,这一点不需要说太多,注意介绍的爱好应该是积极向上的,反映出你是一个充满正能量的人
可以稍微补充一下自己的性格特点,不宜过长。
以下可以参考,大家可以提前准备好自己的介绍,最好请人给把关。提前最好背诵下来,再让一些同学给自己提出建议。提前演练好。以防到时候紧张而忘词。
