英语口语：自我介绍

　　职场英语口语对话：自我介绍

　　自我介绍可能是我们从学生时期就需要准备的一段话了，并且现在无论是面试或者研讨会都有可能会用到的。所以今天我们就来分享一下，如何自我介绍工作经历。

　　I’ve been working in ABC company for the past two years as a computer engineer.

　　我在ABC公司当了两年的计算机工程师。

　　I’ve just graduated from ABC University.

　　我是刚从ABC大学毕业的毕业生。

　　I was an accounting trainee and eventually become a manager.

　　我最初是从当见习会计起步的，后来成为了一名经理。

　　My major is computer. I went in for the development of software after graduation.

　　我学的是计算机专业，毕业后从事计算软件开发的工作。

　　聪明人在工作场合不该说的话

Don't say: "That's not my job."

　　Why: If your superior asks you to do something, it is your job。

　　Instead say: "I'm not sure that should be my priority right now." Then have a conversation with your boss about your responsibilities。

　　不要说"That's not my job."(这不是我分内的事。)只要你的上司让你做，那你就得做。我们可以说"I'm not sure that should be my priority right now."(我不确定现在是否应该先做这事。)然后告诉老板你需要负责哪些。

Don't say: "This might sound stupid, but…"

　　Why: Never undermine your ideas by prefacing your remarks with wishy-washy language。

　　Instead say: "What's on your mind?" It reinforces your credibility to present your ideas with confidence。

　　不要说"This might sound stupid, but…"(也许这听上去有点愚昧，但是……)永远不要在发言前加上这种优柔寡断的前缀来削弱自己的观点。可以说"What's on your mind?"(你怎么认为?)这样可以增强你的可信度，让你充满自信地发表意见。

Don't say: "I don't have time to talk to you."

　　Why: It's plain rude, in person or on the phone。

　　Instead say: "I'm just finishing something up right now. Can I come by when I'm done?" Graciously explain why you can't talk now, and suggest catching up at an appointed time later. Let phone calls go to voice mail until you can give callers your undivided attention。

　　不要说"I don't have time to talk to you."(我没时间跟你说。)无论是当面说还是在电话里说，这话都是相当粗鲁的。我们可以说"I'm just finishing something up right now. Can I come by when I'm done?"(我现在正忙着要完成一些事情，等我做完了再来找你行吗?)礼貌地向别人解释为什么现在不行，并且提出稍后的约定时间。打电话时除非你能把所有注意力都放在对方身上，否则就选择语音邮件的形式吧。

　　初到一家公司该怎么做

　　It's never easy being the new guy. Whether you're heading into your first job out of school or your 15th, the first days at a new gig are rarely easy ones. New coworkers, a new office, and a brand new work culture all lend to the feeling that you are a stranger in an even stranger land. What's the best way to cope?

　　当新人从来不是件容易的事。不管你是大学毕业才获得第一份工作，或者这已经是你的第15份工作了，总之在一家新单位里的头几天都不会过得很轻松。新的同事，新的办公室，以及全新的工作文化，会让你充满了人生地不熟的感觉。那么，最好的适应方法是什么?

　　"Go to the cafeteria, the break room and ask people to tell you stories," says Todd Hudson, founder of Maverick Institute, Portland Ore., which published the handbook, "My Personal Onboarding Plan: The New Hire's Guide to On-the-Job Success."

　　俄勒冈州波特兰市马沃里克研究院(Maverick Institute)的创始人，《我的入职计划：职场新人的成功指南》("My Personal Onboarding Plan: The New Hire's Guide to On-the-Job Success.")一书作者托德?哈德逊建议是：“到自助餐厅或休息室去，让人们给你讲点故事。”

　　From what these seasoned employees tell you, you'll learn who the key players are at your new office and "about extraordinary efforts, about creativity, about people protecting their customers. Your new coworkers' tales will tell you how you should act in those situations. If you hear all negative stories, it tells you one thing. If you hear positive things, that tells you something else," Hudson says.

　　从这些老员工的话里，你可以得知谁是办公室里的关键人物，以及谁“非常努力，非常有创造性，非常保护他们的客户。新同事的故事会告诉你，在这些情况下应该如何表现。负面的故事都是相同的，而正面的故事各有各的意义。”哈德逊说。

　　People love to tell these stories, he adds. "They will tell you what made the biggest impression on them, what got their juices going."

　　他补充道，人们是喜欢讲这些故事的。“他们会告诉你，什么样的事情会给人留下最深刻的印象，而什么样的事情会被传得八卦满天飞。”

　　When you start a new job, you'll probably have some type of formal orientation program, also known as onboarding. It may be nothing more than a quick introduction to policies and benefits, but some companies make an effort to offer you a taste of what kind of environment to expect.

　　当你开始一个新工作的时候，你可能要接受某种正式的入职教育。有的入职教育只是简单地介绍一下公司的政策和福利，但有些公司却会让你对工作环境稍作了解。
