Graduate student re-examination interview skills:

What is the most important thing in the re-examination? Some people say it is your grades, but that is wrong. The most important thing in the re-examination is your image in the eyes of your future supervisor. How can we give him a good image? For students who have not yet left school, they really don’t know how to do it?

What does the tutor do when he recruits students? What does he want most? Students?

What tutors want are students who can do things and talk less, the kind of students who can do everything. So when you meet the tutor for the first time, don’t talk too much. Such student tutors are 80 Annoying. What should you say when you meet your tutor for the first time? 1: You can talk about some professional issues, and you’d better prepare these before you meet your tutor. A student who can ask good questions is better than Some students who can solve problems are also important. When asking professional questions, don’t ask everything, because some questions will make the instructor think you don’t understand anything, so you really have to think carefully about whether he wants you to do it. 2: If you really don’t have anything good to do The question asked, what should I do? Then let’s chat, yes, just chat! Let’s talk about the weather here. This is a universal topic, and no one is disgusted with it. Three: What should I give as a gift to my tutor? I don’t think it should be too much. For valuable things, this is not a good idea, so get some very special things for your home, that is, specialties and the like. For example, if you are from Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, then porcelain is indispensable. It must be high-quality, and don’t just buy it in a local place. It’s hard to get one!

After these meeting “ceremonies”, it’s the interview’s turn;

Note that many students confuse the interview with the recruitment interview. There is a huge difference, because for recruitment, a few people are selected from dozens of people, while for interviews, one or two people are selected from a dozen people. Therefore, recruitment interviews can be surprisingly successful, and if you want to come here, If someone succeeds unexpectedly, he will often fail unexpectedly.

Clothing for interviews is also very important. For boys, if you choose a suit, you should pay attention to the following points:

1: The trademark on the cuffs must be cut off (don’t ask why, it’s fine)

2: When wearing a suit, you must pay attention to the "three-color principle". What is the three-color principle? There are no more than three colors on your body, which means that the total of all the colors on your body cannot exceed three colors. It is best to use a better tie, because that is your NO2 face, and the pattern should be geometric. If your shoes are If it's black, then your belt should also be the same color.

3: You can't wear white socks. Why? Because in formal occasions, this is a taboo. In foreign countries, people like this are called donkeys. Then your feet will naturally be donkey’s feet.

4: Don’t wear tie clips, because tie clips are only used by VIPs and employees of public security and other enterprises and institutions, and ordinary people cannot use them

As for your choice of casual wear, it will be much easier. If you choose casual wear, the interview teacher will not care about this with you.

Girls:

1: I suggest you choose casual clothes, because women’s clothes are not something ordinary people can handle (dressing up is too much)

2: If you have long hair, you must wear it during the interview. Tie your hair up and don’t let it down. Some students may think they look good with their hair down, but we don’t want that look good here.

3: If you have body odor, you can get some perfume, but use a light one. Don't use multiple perfumes, it's better to use one or the same series of perfumes.

4: You can wear light makeup appropriately, because makeup is a sign of respect for others, so be careful to wear light makeup

5: It is generally not recommended to check for lipstick, but you should pay attention to it: the color of the lipstick should match the color of your shirt, and the color of the lipstick should also match, but it is better not to do this

6

You can't wear leather pants, because in foreign countries, only prostitutes wear leather skirts, so don't worry about the pants you wear, whether you think they look good or not!

Now let's talk about how to face the teacher. .

The teacher sitting in the middle is naturally the leader. Before going in, it’s best to say hello to him. Don’t just sit down on the chair. Wait for him to signal you to sit down. Say thank you to him! Don’t be surprised if you give gifts to many people

The position is like this. The teacher in the middle is the boss, the teacher to your right is the second child, and the teacher to your left is the third child, and so on.

When the boss in the middle asks you a question, don't just look at him, but also "take care of" the third and second bosses. Then this may allow them to give you more points. If you are very If you are afraid of looking at the teacher, I have a "trick" to teach you: you can put your eyes behind the teacher. Then you say you can't see the teacher, but the teacher thinks you are always looking at him. When you answer, your head To move, choose to turn from the middle to the right, then to the left. Of course, the amplitude should not be too large, as long as the teachers feel that you have at least "taken care" of them

Be careful when going to the tutor's house What?

I think you have to wash your feet first. Many students enter the tutor’s house and their feet do emit a bad smell, so I think this can be regarded as a reminder, no. It is true that many students do not pay attention to this. At the same time, it is best to wash your mouth before going to the tutor's house, because sometimes your breath may be so heavy that others can't stand it. In short, it is always useless to make yourself look cleaner. Wrong.

Before going to the teacher’s home, it is best to have a phone call with the teacher first. It is also more important to make phone calls: it is best not to call on Monday morning and Friday afternoon. Anyone who has done marketing knows this. A little bit, but many of our classmates don’t know that you can express your intention to go to his home in a more tactful way, for example: Teacher **, I want to ask you some questions. I may say it temporarily on the phone. I don't know. Can I come to your house? ^_^ and so on

If your test scores are not very good, especially if your professional courses are very low, then you should not always follow the teacher. Intentionally or unintentionally, you say that it is difficult to take exams in other schools, because the teacher knows much better than you in this regard. He leaked the test questions of those professional courses to the students of this school. Can you express dissatisfaction with him? No.

Since he has let you into his door, it means that he has considered you to be his prospective student. For his students, the instructor does not think of trying to find your shortcomings, but works hard to find your shortcomings. Help you find your strengths, so if you have any minor abnormalities or excessive tension at this time, the teacher will help you find the reason from the bottom of his heart. If you can talk to the teacher more easily, then you can rest assured. If If your score is relatively high, then you can remind the teacher at this time. You can remind him in the following ways. You asked him how many points our major needed last year to receive public funding. Look at my score, it is probably a bit difficult. If this is the case A tutor has promised you to be his student. Even if he doesn't know anything about this aspect, he will help you ask, or he will tell you the general situation. Or he will work hard to help you get public funds. !

Also, when choosing a tutor, you must choose carefully. How to choose depends partly on luck and partly on vision

1: The best tutors in the college are not suitable for foreign schools. It is difficult to be his student, but are these so-called best tutors really the "best"? I think it is definitely not! And absolutely not, the reason: these tutors usually hold multiple positions, or are in the academy The leaders in the school are either working in some company or government. Such tutors usually have more than 20 students. To use a popular saying today: Can a teapot fill so many teacups? So these tutors, they Most of the students are entrusted to other tutors in the college. If you think about it, there are many tutors and students with average level now. It must be a very good teacher who has few students. Therefore, your "famous teacher" is likely to entrust you to Their. For some students who just want to hang out, it doesn’t matter, but I

If you want to be a student, no matter what your motivation is for taking the postgraduate entrance examination, you must want to learn something more or less!

2. When choosing a tutor, many students feel confused. In fact, I think those who should choose Those in their 40s and 50s, those who have published more papers. This can usually be easily found, because these mentors have great potential, and they may be developed in two or three years. Those in their 30s and 40s should be considered, because after all, there are many The senior person is at the front, and any project he wants to apply for depends on other people’s opinions, but for those students who want to go abroad, they can definitely consider it.

3: Choose a mentor, called Two-way selection, that is to say, you can choose a tutor, and the tutor also chooses you. However, for current schools, tutors mainly choose students, but students can also choose tutors within a small range, so at this time the cards are in You have it in your own hands, and you must make good use of this card

Three important points:

First of all, students who participate in the re-examination must dare to speak English and express themselves. This can be said to be the most basic guarantee for a successful interview. Many students will still be nervous when they are on site. A concrete manifestation of nervousness is that some students are incoherent during on-site interviews. Sometimes they even think about a question for a long time, resulting in a cold scene. This is the first self-confidence issue that everyone should pay attention to.

Second, students who participate in the interview must come prepared. Prepare a 2-minute or 3-minute basic English statement in advance, so that you can basically use the words and tenses correctly when speaking English. Some students are prepared for some English vocabulary in their majors, such as themselves How do you speak English at the school where you graduated and what is your undergraduate major in English? These are the most basic things that you must prepare. Including what courses you have taken as an undergraduate, how to express these courses in English, and how to explain some basic concepts in this major in English. You should also have a good grasp of this aspect.

Third, students should also pay attention to their appearance during interviews. For example, how should you dress during an on-site interview? Be more formal and show good temperament.

Three don’ts:

First, don’t have any obvious traces of endorsement. As we all know, the English interview itself is to test your English communication skills, and there are some things you need to prepare for. Yes, but the preparation process is best to show a traceless situation. Many students memorize it by themselves, and they are not very familiar with it. As a result, some sentences are half-sentenced and they forget to memorize it from the beginning again. This does not give the examiner a particularly good feeling. Sometimes when they arrive at the scene, students start to memorize the words without looking at the examiner. Instead, they look at the corner and think about a certain sentence. This is a taboo in interviews.

Second, don’t talk endlessly without listening to the examiner’s questions. An obvious example is a classmate who prepared a set of materials himself, but he was not very sensitive to the questions raised by the examiner, so he avoided answering them. It must be noted that the interview process is a process of oral communication between both parties. It not only tests your oral expression skills, but also tests your listening ability. First of all, you are required to understand the questions asked by the examiner and be targeted and selective in this question. 's answer. If you don't understand the question the first time, you can ask the examiner to repeat it or use slower English or use other English expressions to make sure you understand the question before answering. Don't ramble on there and forget what you have memorized. Memorizing a set of things will leave a very bad impression on the examiner, who will think that you have no basic listening ability.

Third, you must be fully prepared for the examiner’s interrupting questions or interjecting questions, and do not ignore them. When students answer a certain question, they may talk about some points. These points may be points that the examiner will ask further. These points may be for which you have not prepared in advance. At this time, you must adapt to the situation and use Use simple descriptions of your own simple knowledge of English.

For example, during a previous interview, a classmate mentioned that his undergraduate major was mechanical engineering. The teacher interrupted him and asked if he could briefly describe what mechanical engineering is. The classmate was stunned and didn't know how he should express this question in English. In fact, if you express it in simple English, for example, mechanical engineering is a knowledge that simply describes how to design a machine, how to debug one, and so on. Simple English will have better results for such interrupting questions. Many students are prepared in this regard. The shortcoming is that some students simply don't care about the teacher's interrupting questions and close their ears when answering the questions. When the examiner asks them, they pretend not to hear and continue talking. This does not make the examiner feel particularly good.

The last point, which may not be something that everyone can solve in the short term, is that quite a few students still have problems with the pronunciation of basic English words. In itself, correcting English pronunciation may be a long-term process, but I believe there are some things that everyone can do in the short term, which is the process of self-statement, or introducing your school, major, or some of your family background. When speaking, I hope everyone has prepared these basic English words in advance. If you are not sure about the pronunciation, it is best to look it up in a dictionary to see how to pronounce the sound. It is indeed difficult for everyone to improve their pronunciation and intonation as a whole, but if you have time, I hope you can use some particularly long words in your self-statements, for example, if the word has three or four syllables, I suggest you check it out Don’t mispronounce the pronunciation in an electronic dictionary without knowing it, as this may cause some undesirable effects.

The results of the preliminary examination for the postgraduate entrance examination have come out. I believe you have some idea whether you have met the minimum requirements of the country and whether you can participate in the re-examination. Based on my understanding of the re-examination, I would like to share with my friends some extremely important re-examination skills. I hope it will help all of you who are preparing for the interview!

1. Understand the ranking situation

Immediately call the school you are applying for, the academic office of the major, or through other channels, and be sure to have a rough understanding of the ranking situation of your preliminary examination results!

2. Understand the proportion of admissions over the years

Understand the proportion of interviews and admissions in this major, and see if your challenge is big?

3. Communicate with seniors and seniors from the first year of graduate school

Hurry and wait in the classroom of the postgraduate class of that major. If you can meet the seniors and seniors from the first year of graduate school who are applying for the major you are applying for, who have been admitted, and who are currently studying (note Remember: Same types of electricity repel each other, and different types of electricity attract each other!). In any case, invite him (or her) out for a meal and a chat. You must have some understanding of the basic situation and characteristics of the re-examination of the major and department. !

4. Communicate with your tutor and report the situation

Try to meet with the tutor of your application in advance! Assume that this major will recruit a total of 50 graduate students this year. According to my experience, the quota allocation is as follows: about 10 applicants, and about 15 from various connections (among them, the "excellent" and "have" recommended by superior leaders There are 3-5 candidates with "potential", and some of them have already submitted their applications and have already been pre-decided. There are 3-5 candidates from administrative, functional departments, and peers, and there are a few relatively "awesome" mentors who have some connections. The remaining 20-25 places are up to everyone to compete! In any case, we still need to admit a few obedient and outstanding graduate students so that they can "work" for the tutor. After all, the appearance is still You have to hold on!

5. There is basically no problem for the top five.

Among the 20-25 places in the competition, if the preliminary test is very good, for example, the test score is 390, Or more, those ranked in the top 5, as long as they don't talk in their sleep or have nosebleeds during the retest, and "shoot from both sides, attack on both sides", then the problem is basically not big.

6. Understand the academic interests of the interviewer

For the rest, you can go up or down, so you should quickly go to the index of journals and magazines in the subject and major to find the previous publications of the tutor who may participate in your interview. What academic papers have been published, whether he is an academic leader, etc. This is the academic interest of the tutor and interviewing teacher. Most of the questions asked at that time will be these things!

Specific method: Within the scope of the major you are applying for, find the names of several tutors listed in this direction. Determine a few possible candidates for the general direction you want to interview, and try to go to the college's website to find the person's photo. Then you can say something like "I have admired your name for a long time, and it is a brilliant relationship" and "I admire you very much." , words like the surging river, continuous and endless"! Wear it thousands of times, but you can’t wear it if you flatter me! For example, if you apply for English, then at least it will be divided into the general directions of language, literature, and translation. It is impossible for language tutors to come to the literature direction for interviews! If this school doesn't even distinguish this, it means that the school has very few tutors, so it's even better! Go to the library's academic journal website, such as CNKI, and enter the name of the university + the tutor's name to find out the tutor's recently published papers. He will definitely ask relevant questions then. If the tutor has not published a paper, then he will definitely not show up at that time: he is definitely a tutor in the name of the Chief Executive. He is in meetings all day long and will not come for the interview! The subsidy is too small!

How to find papers? For example: if you enter: Yang Guifei, Universe Empire University, the following will appear. Yang Guifei's main papers published in recent years, just read one carefully. Everything else is much the same! Another example: If you enter: An Lushan + University of Tokyo, An Lushan’s main papers will appear!

There is also a very regular pattern regarding the publication of articles by professors. For example, for science professors, this is often the case: the paper published when he was an associate professor was titled: "On whether it is better to turn on and off a computer with the left hand or the right hand?" ", then the papers and "written papers" usually published during the professorship are: "Re-discussing whether it is better to turn on and off the computer with the left hand or the right hand? ", the article he published when he was an academic leader is: "Three Discussions" On whether it is better to turn on and off the computer with the left hand or the right hand? 》, when at the academician level it was: "My opinion on whether it is better to turn on and off the computer with the left hand or the right hand"! For liberal arts professors, the articles published in order by professional title and level are: "On whether it is better to use the left nostril or the right nostril in the blood flow competition?" 》《On the flow of blue blood competition, is it better to open holes on the left and right, a two-pronged approach, or is it better to use a clear spring to come out of the hole? 》《In the competition of bleeding blue blood, it is best to shoot the bow from left and right and combine it with a stream of clear spring to come out of the hole! 》

Don’t be afraid! Just read the article carefully and learn by analogy!

At the same time, it is also important to see what courses the instructor offers to graduate students!

7. Go straight to the interview room and get it done!

In addition: If you are a major, you may need to use English at that time. Write down the key points of the answer in advance, make it into more pleasant English, and read it aloud and recite it again and again! At least the introduction to yourself, which is about 3 minutes of English script, needs to be memorized by heart!

Five major questions that must be tested in the postgraduate re-examination

There are five major questions in the postgraduate interview process, which are compulsory questions. You must preview them dozens of times in advance and be sure to know them thoroughly. , only if you are familiar with it. Otherwise, you will be outright taken advantage of in the future.

1． Name, age, where are you from? Do you have any criminal record?

2． Why should you apply for this major in this school?

3. What do you think of the development prospects of this profession, and what are the opportunities and challenges?

4. If you are admitted, what area of ??research do you plan to do and why?

5. What guarantee do you think you have that you will be able to complete or be competent in this research? What do you think your strengths and advantages are?

Of course, after you affirm yourself, you must remember to talk about your shortcomings and learn from the teachers you admire!

Do you think, if you are good at everything and understand everything, then from what country will your tutor receive graduate training fees and various subsidies? With the noble sentiment of being responsible for your future, I cannot let you come, for fear of delaying your academic development!

The above five questions, regardless of school, major, language, skin color, nationality, gender, marital status, mental health, will be tested to the death!
