What should you pay attention to when interviewing for studying abroad?

You should pay attention to the following aspects during the interview:

1. When you first answer the phone, you must respond quickly and don't be too nervous. When the other party says may

I

speak

to

xxx?, you can answer, yeah,

< p>it's

me.

you

must

be

professor

xxx. Then be sure to say hello to the other person, which will give the other person a better first impression.

2. At the end of the phone interview, be sure to express your gratitude, such as thanks

for

calling. And after making the phone call, send the other party an email to express your gratitude.

In addition to the above two most basic issues, you should also pay attention to the following points.

1.

Develop good language habits

Developing good language habits means not only not making grammatical errors when expressing, but also expressing fluently. Use words appropriately and speak meaningfully. Equally important is the way you speak, such as: clear pronunciation, appropriate intonation, natural voice, moderate volume, etc. When speaking, slang words are constantly used, and the catchphrases are added to the sentences, such as bad sentences and broken sentences, which are all manifestations of low language cultivation.

2.

Pay attention to clear pronunciation and appropriate intonation

Clear pronunciation and accurate articulation are not very difficult for ordinary people. Some people have inaccurate pronunciation of individual phonemes due to defects in their vocal organs. If this seriously affects people's understanding or the overall quality of speech, words or words containing this phoneme should be used less or not at all. Of course, if there is a way to correct it, you should try to correct it and don't cancel it. The story of the ancient Greek orator Demosthenes who practiced eloquence by holding pebbles in his mouth may give you some inspiration. No matter which language it is, there are intonation standards for various sentence patterns. Some of the same sentences, processed with different intonations, can express different emotions and receive different effects. If someone says, "I just lost my job," use the same rhetorical question: "Really?" to express surprise, annoyance, suspicion, ridicule, and other meanings. Some studies have shown that using rising intonation can easily create suspense for the listener and increase his interest, but if it continues for too long, it can cause fatigue. The falling intonation shows that the speaker is decisive and sometimes shows his subjective arbitrariness. A decent tone of voice should be ups and downs but not exaggerated, natural but not artificial. But an emotionally varied cadence is always more moving than a cold, flat tone.

3. The voice is natural, the volume is moderate, and the speaking speed is appropriate

Speak with a real voice, neither high nor low, without losing yourself. Not only does it sound real and natural, but it is also conducive to relief. Nervousness. The volume is appropriate to allow the listener to hear clearly. A lower voice is more pleasant and polite than a loud voice. Whispering is a sign of lack of confidence, while speaking loudly can disturb the environment and be aggressive. Appropriate speaking speed is not the same speed and rhythm from beginning to end. The speaking speed and rhythm should be adjusted according to the importance, difficulty, level of the content and the other party's attention. A moderately slow speech rhythm is more acceptable than an urgent machine gun rhythm.

In addition to the above three points, we must also be wary of a phenomenon that can easily destroy the artistic conception of language - using too many "well", "and" and "you" in English expressions

< p>know", "OK" and the pretentious "yeah", etc. not only hinder people's coherent understanding, but are also easily annoying. This article is provided by Nico
