　　在面试过程中，经常会遇到英语面试的场景。对于求职的人来说，提前准备一些面试英语常用的口语内容，可以帮助大家在真正的面试中，有更好地发挥。那么比较常见的这些面试英语都有哪些呢?为了让大家更有针对性的进行练习，小编为大家整理了详细的内容。

　　Want to prepare for your next job interview?

　　正在准备下一场求职面试吗?

　　Start thinking about how you'd fare in a zombie apocalypse.

　　先思考一下你在僵尸入侵的时候会有哪些遭遇吧。

　　Sometimes, interviewers just want to get a sense of how well you're able to

　　think outside the box.

　　有时候，面试官只是想要了解一下你跳脱思维框架的能力如何。

　　That's why it's not too surprising that some of the most successful

　　executives out there like to ask some pretty weird questions during job

　　interviews.

　　所以你也不必惊讶，有些成功的管理者们总会喜欢提问一些奇怪的面试问题。

　　Here are some of those oddball questions.

　　下面给大家列举其中的一些奇怪问题。

　　'On a scale of one to 10, how weird are you?'

　　“如果给你自己的古怪程度打分，1-10，你会打几分?”

　　One of Zappos' core values is to "create fun and a little weirdness," Tony

　　Hsieh, CEO of the company, tells Business Insider.

　　美捷步公司(美国的一个鞋子品牌)的核心价值文化之一是“创造乐趣和一点古怪”。这是美捷步公司的首席总裁Tony Hsieh告诉Business

　　Insider网站记者的。

　　To make sure he hires candidates with the right fit, Hsieh typically asks

　　the question: "On a scale of one to 10, how weird are you?" He says the number

　　isn't too important, but it's more about how people answer the question.

　　Nonetheless, if "you're a one, you probably are a little bit too straight-laced

　　for the Zappos culture," he says. "If you're a 10, you might be too psychotic

　　for us."

　　为了确保聘用最合适的人才，Hsieh常常都会提问面试者“如果给你自己的古怪程度打分，1-10，你会打几分?”他表示分数多少并不重要，重要的是人们怎么解释这个答案。不管怎样，他表示，如果“你打了1分，那么你对美捷步公司文化的印象就太刻板了。如果是10分，对于我们来说，你就是个疯子了。”

　　Another question Zappos usually asks candidates is: "On a scale of one to

　　10, how lucky are you in life?" Again, the number doesn't matter too much, but

　　if you're a one, you don't know why bad things happen to you (and probably blame

　　others a lot). And if you're a 10, you don't understand why good things always

　　seem to happen to you (and probably lack confidence).

　　另外一个美捷步公司常常提问面试者的问题是“从1-10分，你觉得在生活中你的幸运程度如何?”重申，分数本身没多大重要性，但如果你打1分，你就不知道为什么糟糕的事情总是发生在你的身上(并且还会常常抱怨他人)。如果你打的是10分，那你就不太了解为什么好事情总让你碰上了(还有可能失去自信)。

　　'What was the last costume you wore?'

　　“你上次穿的是什么衣服?”

　　It doesn't matter so much what they wore, but why they wore it. If the

　　candidate's reasoning matches Warby Parker's core value of injecting "fun and

　　quirkiness into work, life, and everything they do," they might have a real shot

　　at getting a job there.

　　其实问题就人们穿什么来说并不重要，重要的是他们为什么要穿这样的衣服。如果面试者的推理过程与Warby

　　Parker公司的核心价值观相符合——“给工作，生活，以及他们所创造的一切融入乐趣与多变”，那么就很有可能拿下了这个工作机会。

　　"We find that people who are able to make the job environment fun build

　　followership more easily," the company's cofounder and co-CEO David Gilboa tells

　　Iris Mansour at Quartz. "If we hire the most technically skilled person in the

　　world whose work style doesn't fit here, they won't be successful."

　　“我们发现，如果人们能够营造舒适欢乐的工作环境，他们常常也更容易建立良好的人际关系。”这是Warby Parker公司的创始人及首席总裁之一David

　　Gilboa在Quartz网站上对Iris

　　Mansour的回复。“如果我们聘用了世界上技术最出众的员工，但是他的气场与公司的氛围一点都不符合，那么他们也不会取得成功。”

　　'If you were an animal, which animal would you be?'

　　“如果你是一种动物，你会是哪一种?”

　　"The animal kingdom is broad, and everyone can identify with a specific

　　animal they think embodies their own personalities and characteristics," Stormy

　　Simon, president of Overstock, tells Business Insider.

　　“动物王国的范围非常广泛，而每一个人都能找到一种特定的动物来表示他们本人的个性。”Stormy

　　Simon是Overstock的总裁，接受Business Insider记者采访时说道。

　　"There are so many different human traits, where in the animal kingdom they

　　put themselves, and why, really gives insight to the person answering the

　　question. For example, just because you love dogs doesn't mean you would

　　identify yourself as a dog," she explains.

　　“人类的个性多种多样，因此在动物王国里，他们把自己放在动物的位置上，也就是我们从中能够真实的审视回答问题的面试者的原因。比如说，虽然你很喜欢狗，但是不意味着你会用狗来形容自己。”她解释道。

　　Good answers, she says, are where the candidate picks an animal that they

　　think truly personifies the traits that set them apart. "People have often

　　chosen the same animal as other candidates, but the traits they describe have

　　never been the same," says Simon. But they're not all good answers.

　　她表示，聪明的回答应该是求职者们找到最能描述个人特点的动物。“人们常常选择与别人相同的动物，但是他们所描述的特性却从不一致。”Simon说道。不过这些答案都不完全是好的答案。

　　'What do you want to be when you grow up?

　　“你长大了想当什么样的人?”

　　Stewart Butterfield, the cofounder of Flickr and chief executive of Slack,

　　likes to ask job candidates this question we've been answering for our teachers

　　and parents since we were kids.

　　Stewart

　　Butterfield是Flickr网站的创始人之一，同时也是Slack公司的首席执行官，在给求职者面试的时候，他喜欢提出一些我们小时候曾经回答过老师或家长所提出的问题。

　　"Good answers are usually about areas in which they want to grow, things

　　they want to learn, things that they feel like they haven't had a chance to

　　accomplish yet but want to accomplish," he tells Adam Bryant of The New York

　　Times. "A very short answer to that question would be automatically bad."

　　他告诉《纽约时报》的记者Adam

　　Bryant“好的回答通常都是围绕着他们想要成长的环境，他们想学习的知识，以及那些他们觉得没有机会实现但希望去实现的事情的。简短的回答一般都不奏效。”

　　'What would you do in the event of a zombie apocalypse?'

　　“如果把你放在僵尸启示录的场景里，你会怎么做?”

　　This seems like a ridiculous question to ask, but it's posed to every

　　prospective employee at Capriotti's Sandwich Shop, a national restaurant

　　franchise. Ashley Morris, the company's CEO, says it's the best way to learn how

　　candidates react under pressure.

　　虽然这个问题看起来很荒谬，不过Capriotti’s Sandwich

　　Shop这家遍布全国的连锁餐饮店，却把这个问题贴出来让每一个潜在员工思考。

　　"There really is no right answer, so it's interesting to get someone's

　　opinion and understand how they think on their feet," Morris explains. "The hope

　　is that for us, we're going to find out who this person is on the inside and

　　what's really important to him, what his morals really are, and if he'll fit on

　　the cultural level."

　　Morris解释“这个问题没有标准答案，所以能够了解每个人的观点以及他们如何独立思考是一件非常有趣的事情。我们希望了解这个人的内心想法以及对他来说最重要的是什么，他的个人道德怎么样，以及他是否符合我们公司的文化水平。”
