當(dāng)然可以。在家做好面試準(zhǔn)備工作是值得的。

首先，你必須更自信。雇主招的是對(duì)工作有興趣，工作熱情和自信的人。
John: I know I have what it takes but I’m worried that my work experience won’t be sufficient. Should I inflate my experience?
我知道該怎么做，但是我擔(dān)心我的工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)不夠。我應(yīng)該夸大工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)嗎?
Mary: No, you should always be upfront and honest about your weaknesses. However by focusing on your strong points and maintaining a positive attitude about your abilities, you can take the attention off your lack of experience. Employers are always impressed by go-getters.
不用，對(duì)你的劣勢(shì)，你必須誠實(shí)坦白。不過你可以強(qiáng)調(diào)你的強(qiáng)項(xiàng)，對(duì)個(gè)人能力保持積極態(tài)度，雇主就不會(huì)注意你工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)的不足。雇主總是對(duì)負(fù)有進(jìn)取心的人印象深刻。
