1.Why do employers ask this question?
1.为什么雇主会问这个问题？
“Tell me about yourself” can be such a broad question and often leaves interviewees wondering what, exactly, employers want to know. Do they want a recap of your education? Do they want you to dive into your work history? ***re they curious about your passions or what you love to do for fun?
“谈谈你自己”是一个非常宽泛的问题，常常会让面试者困惑——雇主到底想知道什么？回顾你的教育经历?深入了解你的工作经历?或者对你的兴趣所在，以及喜欢做什么感到好奇吗?
Chances are, they want to know whatever it is that you think is important to talk about.
很有可能，他们想知道任何你认为重要的话题。
Interviewers typically ask this question to discover what parts of your personality and life you value and prioritize. Just as no two company cultures are the same, there is no one right answer to this question. Interviewers want to see whether your unique response will gel with their unique workplace culture.
面试官问这个问题，通常是为了发现你的个性和生活中你重视和优先考虑的部分。正如没有两家公司的文化是相同的，这个问题没有一个正确的答案。面试官想知道你独特的回答是否符合他们独特的职场文化。
***re you a hard-charging, ambitious professional eager to advance in your career? Or are you a parent of four who enjoys weekend road trips? Most job seekers assume every company would prefer candidates with the first response, but that’s truly not the case. Not every company or role offers professional growth opportunities, so not every company is looking for candidates with the first answer. On the other hand, if a company is looking for someone willing to work nights and weekends and that’s not your current career stage, it’s better you both find that out before you accept an offer.
你是一个有进取心、有野心、渴望在职业生涯中取得进步的专业人士吗?或者你是四个孩子的父母，喜欢周末自驾游?大多数求职者认为每家公司都更喜欢第一种反应的求职者，但事实并非如此。并不是每个公司或职位都提供专业发展的机会，所以并不是每个公司都在寻找拥有第一种答案的候选人。另一方面，如果一家公司正在寻找愿意在晚上和周末工作的人，而这不是你目前的职业阶段，你最好在接受这份工作之前先弄清楚这一点。
This question is also a great icebreaker. It’s typically one of the first questions asked and lets candidates talk about the things they are most familiar with and passionate about. Furthermore, a candidate’s answer can be a great segue into a follow-up question.
这个问题也是打破僵局的好方法。这通常是面试者被问到的第一个问题，让他们谈论他们最熟悉和最感兴趣的事情。同时，应试者的回答可以很好地引出后续的问题。
2.How to answer “tell me about yourself”
2.如何回答“谈谈你自己”
While you want your response to be honest and true to you, you should still think about your answer ahead of time. Here are a few things to keep in mind when coming up with your answer.
虽然你希望你的回答是真挚诚恳的，但你仍然应该提前思考一下你要说的话。在你给出回答时，切记以下几点。
1. Keep it short and don’t rehash your resume.
1. 保持简短，不要重复你的简历。
Keep your answer fairly general. The interviewer will likely ask you more in-depth questions throughout the interview, so there’s no need to get into the nitty-gritty of your experience. If there’s some aspect of your answer that they want you to expand upon, they will ask.
回答得笼统一些。面试官可能会在后面的面试过程中问你更深入的问题，所以没有必要现在就深入了解你。如果你的回答中有某些方面他们想让你详细讲述，他们会问的。
It’s okay if you want to touch on your experience; however, don’t simply go over word-for-word what the recruiter already knows from reading your resume. Instead, you can do some of the following:
如果你想谈谈你的经历也没关系；但是也不要简单地、逐字逐句地重复他们从你的简历中已经知道的内容。相反地，你可以做以下的一些事情:
– Connect how your past experience translates to the role that you’re applying for
– 将你过去的经验与你申请的职位联系起来
– Discuss your passion for what you do and what inspires you about your line of work
-谈谈你对你所做的事情的热情，以及在你的工作中什么激励着你
– Talk about your hobbies and interests outside of work
-谈论你工作之外的爱好和兴趣
– Touch on volunteer experience
-提一些志愿者的经历
– Let the interviewer know why you’re excited about the role or company
-让面试官知道你为什么对这个职位或公司感兴趣
– Mention a few traits or skills that make you especially suited for the job
-说出一些让你看起来特别适合这份工作的特质或技能
***ll of this will give the interviewer a holistic view of who you are as a person and job candidate.
所有这些都会让面试官对你作为个人、和作为求职者有一个全面的认识。
2. Talk about your past, present, and future.
2. 谈谈你的过去、现在和未来。
Divide your time talking about what you’re doing now, how you got to where you are, and your hopes for the future. You can start by mentioning your education and early roles and working your way up to the present, or you can start from the present and work backward. Either way, it’s good to end with your goals for the future and how you see the role fitting into that.
花点时间谈谈你现在在做什么，你是如何做到现在的位置的，以及你对未来的希望。你可以从你所受的教育和早期的经历或角色开始，并以你的工作方式一直到现在，或者你可以从现在开始向回追溯。但不管怎样，最好以你未来的目标作为结尾，以及你认为你的角色将会是如何适合这个目标的。
3. Think about the company and role that you are applying for.
3. 想想你所申请的公司和职位。
While you don’t want to have completely different answers for each company or role that you’re applying for, it is something to be cognizant of when coming up with your answer.
虽然你并不希望对你申请的每个公司或每个职位都有完全不同的答案，但在作出回答时，需要意识到的这一点。
For instance, if you were applying to a manager position, you may emphasize aspects of your story that reflect your leadership and management experience. Similarly, if you were applying for a position at an education-focused startup, you might touch on how you deeply value the education that you received.
例如，如果你要申请经理职位，你可以强调一下你的过往经历中，反映你的领导和管理经验的方面。同样地，如果你在申请一家以教育为重点的创业公司的职位，你可能就会提到你很重视自己所接受过的教育。
Researching the company and reading the job description of the role you’re applying for will help you be able to connect your experiences and interests to what they are looking for in a candidate.
研究你要去的公司，并阅读你所申请职位的相关描述，这将有助于你将自己的经验和兴趣与他们在求职者身上寻找的东西联系起来。
4. Practice, but don’t memorize.
4. 练习，但不要死记硬背。
It can help to write down some bullet points and go over your answer a few times. Don’t memorize it, however. *** rehearsed speech can cause your response to come off as inauthentic. This question should be answered in a conversational tone that sparks interest and invites questions.
写下一些要点，并反复检查你的回答会有很大帮助。但是，千万不要死记硬背。事先排练过的演讲可能会让你的回答显得不真实。问题应该以对话的语气来回答，这样可以引起别人的兴趣，并引起别人的提问。
3.What you shouldn’t talk about
3.什么是你不该说的
We talked about a few things that you can talk about when answering this question, but what topics are off-limits? Here are a few things that you should avoid talking about when answering this question.
我们上面谈了回答这个问题时可以提到的一些话题，但哪些话题是最好不要提及的?在回答这个问题时，以下是一些你应该避免谈论的事情。
1. Your childhood
1. 你的童年
Don’t treat your answer like an online recipe that requires you to scroll through a recap of an author’s childhood just to get to the good part. Unless you have a quick anecdote that is pertinent to your passion or career, there’s no need to give a play-by-play of your life story. Start with your education or relevant job experience.
不要把你的回答当成一个菜谱——需要你翻看童年的回顾才能看到好的部分。除非你有一个与你的爱好或职业相关的轶事，否则没有必要详细讲述你的生活故事。最好从你的教育背景，或相关工作经验开始。
2. Why you don’t like your current
2. 你为什么不喜欢你目前的工作
Don’t take this as an opportunity to rag on your current employer and list all the reasons why you’re looking to get out of there. You can say something along the lines of “I’m looking for more opportunities to grow my career” or “I hope to gain more experience in a different field with a new company” but don’t go beyond that.
不要把这当做一个抱怨你现在雇主的机会，列出所有你想离开那里的原因。你可以这样说:“我正在寻找更多的机会来发展我的事业”或“我希望在一家新公司、在不同的领域获得更多的经验”，但不要超越这个范围。
3. Details about what you’re looking for in the job
3.详细说明你想从工作中得到什么
This will likely be the first question an interviewer asks. Don’t go into detail about what you are looking for in the job, expected benefits, or desired salary. That can wait until later in the interview process.
“谈谈你自己”大概率是面试官问的第一个问题。因此不要马上详细说明你想从这份工作中得到什么、期望的福利或期望的薪水。这可以等到面试过程的后期。
4. Take a deep breath and be yours
4. 深呼吸，做你自己
This is the time to let your personality shine. While you want to be professional, be yourself and talk about the aspects of your life and career that are most important to you.
这是让你的个性闪耀的时候。当你想要变得专业的时候，应该做你自己，谈论你生活和职业中对你最重要的方面。
Take a deep breath. You got this!
深呼吸。你会拿下它！
