NO.1 我最近六个月一直宅在家里 挠头系数:三颗星
表达难点:全球都经济危机了,找不到工作在家睡觉六个月算是什么丢人的事儿么?当然不是!不过您可千万别实话实说---I have been unemployed/jobless in the past six months. 又不是演员试镜,用不着把气氛渲染得这么凄惨。
表述技巧:当你的工作经历中间有比较大段的时间空白的时候,面试官不可避免的会问到这段时间你的whereabouts。这里应该尽量避免出现unemployed这种负面气场比较强烈的词。用一个词组"in between jobs"就可以委婉地表示这样的意思了。当然,最好的方式是告诉你的面试官:这半年虽然没有正式的工作,我可是一直没停止像金子一样的发光!
