英语面试如何描述过往工作经历
在英语工作面试里，必不可少的一个环节就是谈论自己的工作经验。面试者应利用这个机会充分说明自己过往的工作成就和经验，向面试官全面展示自己为何是该应聘职位的最佳人选。那么如何正确有效的用英语来谈论自己的工作经验呢?
在英语里，我们可以用一般过去时或过去完成时来谈论过往经历。请通过以下情景对话来学习如何选择正确的英语时态来描述过去工作经验。
情景对话 1：
Mary:Qiang, Hello. Please sit down, make yourself comfortable.
你好，强。请座，请随意。
Qiang:Thank you.
谢谢。
Mary:Your qualifications look impressive but what sales experience have you got?
你的学历很好，但你有销售经验吗?
Qiang:I worked in a computer manufacturing company for 18 months. During my time with them I had a great track record of selling the highest number of PCs every month.
我在一家电脑公司工作了18个月。在那里时，我是全公司销售电脑业绩最好的员工。
Mary: Could you give me an example of how you demonstrated good team work skills during your time at the company?
能给我举个例子说明你是一个富有团队工作精神易与他人合作的人吗?
Qiang: Yes. I always supported my colleagues in their work where possible. I'm particularly proud of how I led and motivated the team, as a result, we beat our yearly sales target by 18%.
可以。我总是尽可能的帮助支持我的同事。尤其让我感到骄傲的是我曾带领并激励我的团队一起努力，也正由此，我们年中销售业绩超过预期销售目标18%。
Mary:OK. What are your strengths and weaknesses in the workplace?
好。能讲讲你在工作环境中的'长处和需要改进的地方吗?
Qiang:I'm strongly motivated, I'm highly committed. I was a good team player and a self-starter.
我积极性很高，我有高度的责任心。在公司时，我是一名团队工作者，易与其他同事合作，我也是一名自觉主动的员工。
Mary:Tell me why you would be motivated in doing this job?
能告诉我你为什么有很高的积极性?
Qiang: Firstly, this job is an ideal match for my skills and experience: I have spent three years working in sales and I have strong communication skills. I get on with people easily.
首先，我觉得这个工作非常适合我的能力和经验：我干销售已经三年了，我有非常好的沟通能力。我和其他人共处也很融洽。
Mary: Right well that's pretty much all I want to ask at the moment. Do you have any questions for me?
好了，我目前想了解的就这些了。你有什么问题吗?
Qiang: I'd just like to know when I should expect to hear from you regarding today’s interview?
我就想请问一下大概什么时候能得到今天面试结果的消息。
请注意：
在谈论过去工作经验的时候，应交替使用一般过去时、过去完成时或一般现在时。现在完成时和一般过去时最大的区别是，一般过去时描述的是过去发生并且已经完成了的动作，仅仅对过去发生的事情做了一个陈述;而现在完成时则强调的是过去开始或发生的一个动作对现在的影响。比如：在过去做过销售，所以有丰富经验，这时在介绍自己的时候就可以说“I have been a sales manager for 3 years 我做过三年销售经理。”
要特别提示大家的是，在西方面试中，一定要做自我推荐，要充满信心但不能给人傲慢的感觉，还有要多举些实际的例子来证明自己的工作能力。
