面试的英文需要运用一系列比较专业的词汇，并且善用几种时态，如说明过去的工作要用过去时，以前取得的成绩要用过去完成时等等。这里我们就讲讲什么时候该说什么。

当你走进雇主的办公室，先介绍自己，握手，微笑很重要。此后第一句话往往是打开局面的，通常面试人员会问：

How are you today?
Did you have any trouble finding us?
What do you think of the weather lately?

他们的语调可能会很友好，因为他们也希望你放松，尽量发挥你自己的水平。这时候你要有简单爽快而有礼貌的回应，如：

对方问：How are you today?
好的回答是：I'm fine thank you, and you? 或 I'm well thank you.

不好的回答是：So, so 或 OK 或Not so well

面试过程中最重要的部分是表述自己的学历，工作经验和资历。这些是和你应聘工作直接相关的。

学历方面：记住你的学历是在以前完成的，要用过去时态。例如：

I attended the University of Beijing from 1990 to 1993.
I graduated with a degree in civic engineering.

如果你现在还是学生，那么应用现在时态，例如：

I am currently studying at the University of York and will graduate with a degree in Economics in the coming spring.
I am studying English at the Seneca Community College.

记得要告诉雇主，你仍然在不断改善你的英语，比如你每周还上几小时的英语课。因为英文不是你的母语，他们对此可能会有顾虑。

工作经验和资历无疑是面试中最重要的部分。所以雇主很想知道个中的许多细节。雇主想知道你到底做过什么，做得好不好。因此你不要谦虚，把最好的成绩和方面表达出来。

当谈到你目前在做的工作时你可以用现在完成进行时，表示你不但一直在这样做，而且将来也会持续下去：

ABC Engineering Inc. have employed me for the last 3 years as a salesperson. I have been creating customer contacts for 6 months.

但谈到以前的工作时用过去时：

I was employed by Jackson's Ltd. from 1995 to 1997 as a office manager.
I worked as a production supervisor at the Heitz while I was living in New York.

当谈及以前的工作成绩和表现，尽量用一些主动的，积极的，令人印象深刻的动词，比用名词或者系动词词组效果好。比如与其说My job is to assist the senior scientist with unit testing不如说I assisted the senior scientist with unit testing.与其说I was responsible for the business needs analysis不如说I analyzed the business needs.

以下是一些非常好的动词来帮助你表达你干得多好：
