一、Some good interview techniques:

(The interview will be in English for 30 minutes. When talking in English, please speak up and be confident. Don’t worry that you will make mistakes in grammar and pronunciation. No one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes.)

1. Introduce yourself in 2-3 minutes. So write down a few sentences that capture the key points of your background and practice saying it until you don’t need to look at the piece of paper.

2. Be ready to explain any point in your resume in detail.

3. Since you are not given the job descriptions by us and our partner, try to ask questions regarding to the skills requirements and performance expectation.

4. Be yourself, relax and answer questions directly.

5. Be calm. Do catch the key words in the question. If you don’t understand or not sure about the question, ask the interviewer to repeat the question or make some clarifications. In some cases, you may need to paraphrase the question to confirm with the interviewer on what he/she wants to know before answering the question.

6. Don’t just answer the question with a “Yes” or “No” response. Try to expend your answer around the subject matter to show your depth in the knowledge.

7. Don’t argue with the interviewer if you don’t agree with him/her. Be polite and open-minded. It is OK to disagree but don’t show it in an interview because people are not ready to deal with different opinion in an interview.

8. If you find out that your answer is not inline with the interviewer’s opinion later. Don’t try to correct it. Just smile and move on to other subjects smoothly and quickly.

9. Be positive even when asked about something odd like “How do you think of working overtime?” Just say you can handle it with flexibility. Some people may ask you for your strength and weakness. You should be able to tell them your strength. As for weakness, just say something which is not definitive. For example, you can say you always work hard until your family complains. To your employer, it is your virtue rather that weakness.

10. If you do not have the skill that is required of the job, don’t lie. Just say so but follow up with a statement like this: “I have experience with similar too/skills/cases. Based on my current knowledge, I am confident that I can learn the skill in a short amount of time because I am a quick learner.”

11. At the end of end of the interview, you are usually invited to ask questions. So please take this chance to show your interest in the job by asking a couple of simple questions. Questions regarding programming code quality and project deadlines are good subject matters to talk about. You can also write down a couple of questions before hand for this occasion.

12. Don’t ask about career path. The interviewer is not your manager and won’t care about that.

13. Don’t talk about compensation issue. It should be dealt with by us and our partner.

14. Don’t make bad face, show worry gestures, and express sign of tiredness.

15. Keep smiling throughout the interview. Show confidence all the time.

Some Normal Questions:

1. Would you please introduce yourself?

2. Would you please say something about your working experience on your project?

3. Have you ever experienced any successful or failed project? In your opinion what are the reasons of the success or the failure. 　　4. Could you tell us what your responsibility is in the project that you are involved in? What is your daily work.

5. Can you say something about your latest project?

6. What did you do in the project? Supporting? Maintenance? Or something else

9. Have you ever done some high level design, collected request from the end-clients, or gone through all the design documents?

一、Some good interview techniques:

一些好的面试技巧：

面试一般使用英语，历时30分钟。当说英文的时候，一定要流利而且要自信。不要担心在语法和发音上犯错误，没人能做到完美，每个人都会犯些错误。

1. Introduce yourself in 2-3 minutes. So write down a few sentences that capture the key points of your background and practice saying it until you don’t need to look at the piece of paper.

花2-3分钟介绍一下你自己。你可以先找一些能反映你的背景的关键要素，用语句书面描述出来，然后持续练习直到你能脱口而出。

2. Be ready to explain any point in your resume in detail.

要做好准备描述简历上任何点的细节情况。

3. Since you are not given the job descriptions by us and our partner, try to ask questions regarding to the skills requirements and performance expectation.

因为我们以及我们的伙伴都没有提供关于职位的描述，你可以问一些关于技术要求和期望工作业绩的问题。

4. Be yourself, relax and answer questions directly.

表现真实的自我，放松点，回答问题要直接。

要冷静，一定要抓住问题的关键字。如果你没有听懂或对问题不确定，可以请面试官重复问题或作进一步的解释。某些时候，在回答问题之前，你应该先向面试官解释问题以便明确究竟面试官想要了解什么内容。

6. Don’t just answer the question with a “Yes” or “No” response. Try to expend your answer around the subject matter to show your depth in the knowledge.

回答问题时不要仅仅是“是”或“不是”。你可以尝试着针对这个主题对你的回答做一下延伸，以此来显示你的技术深度。

如果你跟面试官有不同意见，不要和他争论。要有礼貌，思想要开放。有不同意见没问题，但不要在面试中表现出来，因为一般人不愿在面试中处理意见不和的问题。

8. If you find out that your answer is not in line with the interviewer’s opinion later. Don’t try to correct it. Just smile and move on to other subjects smoothly and quickly.

如果后来你发现你的回答与面试官的观点文不对题，不要试图改正它，只要微笑一下，然后圆滑地过渡到下一个主题。

当被问到一些不确定答案的'问题，如“对于加班你怎么看?”时，你要保持积极性。只要表达你能灵活的处理此事。有些面试官会问到你的长处与弱点，你可以告诉他们你的长处，但对于弱点，只要讲一些模棱两可的就行了。举个例子，你可以说你工作太勤奋了，以至于你的家人有所抱怨，对于你的雇主来说，这更像是个优点而不是缺点。
