近来失业率久久徘徊在8%左右，甚至得到一个面试机会都已经变得相当困难。所以一旦你获得了面试的机会，你一定希望尽最大的努力。准备充分当然很重要，但你在面试中的措辞也同样重要。若是用了错误的措辞你就可能扼杀你受聘的机会——即使你完全符合获得这份工作的条件。
"I can do anything."
“我什么都能做。”

"I remember we used to . . . "
“我记得我们曾经……”
Whether you're 25 or 55, reminiscing about the way you used to do things in your industry can make you seem inflexible and dated.
