面試必備：求職面試中的一些小事也重要

　　Preparing for an interview can be stressful -- and time-consuming. You can spend days researching a company, brainstorming answers to "trick" questions and preparing your portfolio. With so much to do, it's easy to forget the practical details that can distinguish a successful interview from a tragic one.

　　準(zhǔn)備面試往往是一件既要承受壓力又要耗費(fèi)時間的事情。你也許要花好幾天時間對一家公司進(jìn)行調(diào)查、絞盡腦汁思考一些“難題”的答案、準(zhǔn)備材料。由于事情太多，容易把一些可能決定面試成敗的細(xì)節(jié)疏忽掉。

　　本文將集中講述那些常常被求職者忽視的細(xì)節(jié)。

　　Getting Your Interview Gear Ready

　　準(zhǔn)備好面試行頭

　　Lay out your clothing in advance. You don't want to be frantically searching for a missing sock or clean shirt on the day of the interview. Make sure your outfit is clean and neatly pressed and take care of other time-consuming chores (polishing your shoes, trimming your nails) the day before the interview if possible.

　　提前準(zhǔn)備好面試著裝。你可不想面試當(dāng)天心急如焚地去找一只襪子或一件干凈的襯衫吧。穿著要干凈、整潔。如果可以的話，面試前一天把費(fèi)時的雜事完成(如擦鞋、修指甲等)。

　　Also, gather all the other important materials you'll need for the interview in one place, where you will be sure not to forget them. You might include copies of your resume, references and directions.

　　同樣，將需要的所有重要材料放在一個你肯定不會忘記的地方，包括簡歷、介紹信和交通說明圖。

　　Just Call Me "Dragon Breath"

　　飲食要得當(dāng)

　　Your parents were right: You don't do as well on an empty stomach.

　　你的父母是對的：空著肚子發(fā)揮不了正常水平

　　Make sure you eat before the interview. You don't need to have a huge meal. In fact, a heavy meal or one loaded with carbs can make you feel sluggish and lethargic. But a light meal or snack will ensure that your stomach doesn't start rumbling loudly just as you're about to discuss your most brilliant accomplishment.

　　面試前一定要吃東西。不一定是吃大餐。事實上，大餐或者很多碳水化合物的食物會讓你感到懶散乏力、昏昏欲睡。一頓便飯或者零食能讓你在談起自己的光輝成就時肚子不會咕咕叫。

　　If your interview isn't until later in the day, steer clear of stinky bards, such as onions and garlic. Whatever you plan to eat before the interview should be followed by some mouthwash and a good brushing.

　　如果面試是在很晚的時候才開始，不要吃味道重的東西，比如洋蔥、大蒜。不論你在面試前吃什么，之后一定要嗽口、刷牙。
